Congrats on the run, Shelley!

The humidity was horrible here today....had a get together at my house and it was so stuffy but the weather cleared so we got some pool time...that was very refreshing!

Back to my regular workouts tomorrow....I've been so busy I haven't had time for much...last workout was Friday and I did weights and cardio then. This is the last week of the Biggest Loser challenge at the gym. I didn't have much weight loss but I wasn't expecting much. I have a really hard time losing anything....gyno said it was due to age and hormones...gotta love perimenopause! But I was happy to have the accountability of a weigh in all summer.

Thanks, Linda!! I really never thought I could do it in a million years...but I'm stubborn, so that helps! LOL!

This morning, it was raining cats and dogs, and hamsters and frogs...and other critters...
so, exercise day off. It's rare we get BIG rains in August, so we'll take it and not say a word!
Not looking good for running tomorrow either, but maybe the weather guys will change the forecast between now and 0600.

happy trails....

I've been getting my workouts....weights, cardio, some at home and some at the gym!

Can't remember if I mentioned it (and too lazy to look back!) but I had DH bring my indoor bike and my rebounder up to the garage so I can work out there with the garage doors open...I have a view of the neighboring farms or I can pop in a dvd because he put a 13" TV and dvd player on a shelf for me.....no excuses to miss a work out!

We've had rain all day so I'm heading out to the garage to pedal while I watch a movie! I can have the doors open and get fresh air but stay dry! And the garage faces a farm field so no one can see me in there! It's perfect for bad weather days!

Congrats on the running, Shelley!!!

I have had a busy weekend with no time for working out...well, I suppose I could have today but I'm tired from yesterday and decided to take the day off....don't want to be worn out for weights tomorrow! Even though tomorrow is "light" weights day, it just means that the weights are lighter than the medium and heavy days...they are all heavy!!! Example: on the lat pulldown light day I use 75 lbs and heavy days are 90 lbs....not bad for an old chick!
