Good morning!
I ran 4.5 miles last night. My legs were pretty tight and are still a bit sore from my lift routine on Monday, so I didn't run as far as I wanted to. Tonight I'm lifting again and I'll do the elliptical. Might have to take it easy on the elliptical if my legs are still sore.
How did everyone else do?
Re: Workout Accountability: Wednesday
Today is my 12 hour day, so hopefully going to get some office exercises in (tricep dips on desk, lovehandle exercise, some squats) just to get some in.
Today, I hope to do the elliptical for 60 or so minutes and some lifting.

I went to spin class this morning and OH LAWDY I thought I was going to throw up! I was sweating in the first 5 minutes, dripping by 15, and at the end of class I had to wipe the sweat off the floor! It was a great workout, but I am most definitely focusing on rehydrating today
maribeth: I know it feels like you're setting yourself back a ton, but trust me, it really is okay to skip a day every now and then.
lbarr: Love the new sig pic! Very cute!
Last night we followed up our first ballroom dancing lesson with the gym for the second straight night in a row (huge accomplishment for us) -- we're both still getting adjusted to being back there and each did 20 minutes on the eliptical, which meant 2.5 miles for him and 1.5 for me. I need to get back to my ten minute pace I had a year ago and work to improve from there.
Accountability is huge for me, so I look forward to being on this board more!
I know that a donut isn't that bad, but I snuck it in before dinner and had a muffin for breakfast so that is just too many sweets in a day for me!
Gonna try to hit the gym tonight - there doesn't seem to be enough time in the day, also have to work on a cover letter and my portfolio. We'll see if it all gets done.
Started JM's Ripped in 30 DVD last night. Ouuuuuuch! Very sore today but plan to do another round tonight. It's so helpful to find a reasonably effective workout that can be done in 20 minutes. I work 12-hr shifts, commute 1 hour, and have homework for class, which has always been an excuse for not working out. Now I have no excuses.
Keep up the good work everyone!
I know there have been a lot of posts recently on C25K. I downloaded it a couple of years ago on my iPod. I want to do it again, but the music drives me crazy. Any ways to get my own music as the background? I don't think I can listen to his "techno" background music. TIA!
Still stuck it out for 20 minutes though!
