I can't be the first can I? I'm all the way over on the west coast!

This isn't a great update, but it's what I got. I feel pretty ick this morning, after the rain yesterday. Didn't make it up the hill last night, or down the hill this morning.

Going to try to walk at lunch, and then up the hill home, for a total of around 40 minutes today. The sun is out, I can't stay in ALL day. I'm hoping my joints agree with me.

(Just picture a chubby redhead going "come on little knees, you can move!" ... hmm now I have to see if I can get an av up so you can get a visual ..... )

:p

[Billie]

it must be the mid day hump! it is quiet!

But I was roaring at the Y today and my legs are just quivering. Did 30 minutes up hill notch 6 which is my highest for 30 minutes.

Good job, Miralin & Billie!

Today I did 45 min on the elliptical (surprise, surprise! :D ) and then I took an intro to yoga class for the first time. It was good because she went from person to person to make sure everyone was in the correct form. I learned, though, at the end of the class, that the class was being cancelled. So there won't be a class next week. :mad: Yes, there are other yoga classes offered but those are obviously more advanced. I'll try them but I'm sure the instructor won't spend the time correcting people's forms.

See, Shadow...spreading my wings. :D

Miralin - Way to go hanging in there and giving it what you can! And mercy, after that mind picture, I can't wait to see your avatar :D!

Billie - Awesome :)!!!!

Liz - Way to go branching out! I'm sorry the class is being cancelled :( but I'm sure you'll find something just as good to replace it with :cool:!

Well wow, my knees are disagreeing with me today. I went out for a walk at lunch, and it took me almost 15 minutes to make it to the pharmacy which is .... 2.5 blocks away.

Methinks I shall be taking the bus up the hill tonight. I doubt 25 minutes that totals 5 blocks really counts, but hey. I do what I can, and tomorrow will be better, yes? Oh yes.

Oh, and shadow, that's me, but I want a better "what I look like" picture. I think I have some at home I can size down.

"C'mon little knees"... oh, I can relate, LOL!!!

Two hours belaying the guys today... 76 pound son, 200 pound DH, and 185 pound brother... whew! Not to mention a steep 1/2 mile walk in and out of the climbing site...

Let's ROCK!

Well I'm checking in today.... first day in a long time that i've actually exercised. I did 2 sets of 20 squats, 20 pushups, full plank 30 sec, each arm side plank for 30 sec each. 20 Vups. WATCHED my new Billy Blanks bootcamp DVD's lol.... Might try basic training tomorrow morning. lol

[Shadow]

Miralin - You have very pretty hair :) but I'd like to actually "see" you ;). Good job taking care of those knees! Do what you can but don't aggravate them.

Ally - Yahoo :D!

Sherry - Sounds like quite the active day :eek:!

[Janis]

Okay, Lita, here goes!

I walked a whole half a mile today, to the hairstylist and back. Not much, you might say, but it's a half mile more than I usually walk (Lita is all too familiar with my dislike of exercise). I WILL do more - spring fever has taken hold of me in a BIG way!

[SherryJ]

It WAS, GF, and tomorrow will be the same! :)

[Shadow]

Janis - :D :D :D!!!!! Of course I'm not going to say 1/2 mile is shabby - 'cause I think it's awesome!!! I am just sitting here beaming ear to ear, girlie - you have made my day! And I'll keep my fingers crossed that the spring fever keeps you in its grip so you just can't say "no" to getting out there and moving it :)!

[miralin]

I'm back!

And yes, Shadow, I'm looking for a better picture. However, none of the ones taken this weekend have surfaced yet. I suspect most of them will not be the type I could use as an av anyway.

I am whipped after a long weekend of traveling. Going to try to make it up the hill tonight, we'll see how it goes.

Now to try to catch up both at work and in here!
