Up north

Temps were great. Awesome clouds! Who said there's no cool clouds in Wisconsin??!! Too bad my camera is messed up...

Didn't have time to get all the gadgets (lavi's party), so no HR data.

I still have the umph from the altitude. loving it!

Greenbush - green loop

no clue on the exact distance and time

felt a bit tired, maybe from the extensive body pump this week.

great weather

Greenbush - purple trail (easier)

I was wearing my water shoes/sandals which were getting quite sweaty/dusty.

We cranked it on this one (ok, for me it was craking it...I really need to do this more often!)

Usual.

Used the non -weighed bar for arms (and even so, oh, man!)

Yeah, I'm in pain!

Zumba

This is somehow not so exciting as it used to be... Hmmm...

Cut it short so i can watch the game.27-24 yey! better keep it up cause next week I'm going to the game!

Up north and around the block

How much fun! I have a hard time qualifying this as training :) I did however push it a bit... And my shins didn't hurt for a chnage! (they always hurrt while rollerblading, no clue why)

Men Falls - new instructor.

Finally able to do the wednesday workout, as the lunch meeting was cancelled.

I went a bit crazy today with the weights, so I'm sure I'll pay soon for that. If I only knew how to prevent this lactic acid build up or whatever gets you in pain!

Here's a recap of the weights today for future reference:

Squats, Back and Chest : L+M (I think I'm ready to add a S to squats, after I recover from today)
Bicep, Tricep: M+S + S (just added the second S, oh, wow, did that make a difference!)
Lunges: 1st time ever I'm able to do lunges (with no weight on the shoulders, as always). Hey, who knows, maybe by winter I'll be able to do 2 tele turns. Hmm...I should not get ahead of myself here!

Up north

Wow, this past 10 days spent at altitude sure helped a lot. I felt like flying! Listened to the rainbow song all the way :))))))) Uh-ah! So now I know what advantage certain people have :)

So, if I make it till tomorrow with no huge pain from this over achieving wednesday, I'll promise to run at least 3 times a week! (for a while, no big commitment or high expectations, please!)

Time today does not include extended chit chatting with Greg (on rollerblades) and Kurt (on a bike). Funny enough, Greg is faster than Kurt!

Now that I feel so accomplished, I'm going to pick some apples from the garden for a pie!

Most underachieving day:
------------------------------------

1) I planed to go riding - get all dressed up and energized... THEN: My instructor is stiff, so I ended up only grooming Nuggett. I mean I really like that horse, and she seemed to enjoy it, but no way I can count that as training..:)

2) I go to visit Jeremy's new baby and planned to run together after. Get all my running equipment and ...again... energized. Jeremy is all tired (new baby will probably do that to you) and I could totally tell he didn't know how to get out of the running (=sad, long face saying "oh, man, I'm so done doing anything tonigh"). So I didn't make a big face when he expressed he's not into it.

So there.. I had a beer (a good one too) and that's my exercise for today.Plus sorting my pics from the tetons.

Men Falls - the usual. same weights.

I am so sleepy, this was more ofd a transe than workout. But my body kinda hurts, so something must have worked.

Feeling greeeaaat!
