| Rode while watching the movie "Friends with Money". I thought I would take advantage of the boys being away by getting a chick flick but I missed on that one - nothing happened - terrible movie. It even had J.Anniston and Francis McDormand in it. |

| Yoga 1:05:00 [2] | |
| |
| A much needed yoga session and I managed to get some flow this time. I really pushed it and even attempted upward bow a couple of times - ouch! Since I have been following the same video for so long now I have been missing out on some postures that I love. I subscribe to the yoga journal and decided that I will throw in a couple of new postures at the end of the video. So today I threw in a couple of 2 minute sirsasanas (headstands). It's been a while since I have done that and remember how much I love it. |

| Once again indoor riding because my blisters are still to sore to run. This ride felt better though and I used the commercials during "Friends" and "Law and Order" to ramp up the intensity, man there are a lot of commercials on tv. I then followed this workout up with a couple of Creemore's and an episode of "Falcon Beach" while stretching ( I have a thing for cheesy shows). It's a good thing I am not single because I have a feeling that all of my nights would be like this one. Phatty is on a boys weekend and since my car is kaput I was confined to the metropolis that I live in. |

| uuugghghgh I can't wait until these blisters on my heels heal! Today would have been a great day for a run on the trail but the blisters won't allow it just yet...Maybe I will do some stretching tonight and some core exercises during the commercials while I drool over McDreamy and then at 10 McTreemy!!!! |

| While watching "Touched by an Angel"! I ramped it up on the commercials to try to keep the heart rate up. Nothing like a spiritual message while riding the bike!!! |

| Strength training 20:00 [2] | |
| |
| A quick couple of sets each of squats, lunges, ham curls on the ball (ouch), curls, and shoulder exercises before Phatty and I did the "Hard-core" workout. |
| Strength training 30:00 [3] | |
| |
| Phatty's first attempt at the "hard-core" workout that Bash and Bent gave us for a housewarming gift almost a year ago - yikes! We gave it our best shot and laughed when Phatty jumped at the chance to answer the phone and pause the DVD! It was just zoolander wanting to talk about paintball though so we were back at it before long. |

| Orienteering 52:00 [4] | |

| Slice and I decided we would run the THOMASS race together and it turned out pretty well for us. We both pushed each other and managed to beat the boys in for a tie for 6th place. Lots of trail running in this one but once again a gorgeous day to be outside. |
| Skate skiing 1:15:00 [5] | |
| |
| The first hour with our superfit friends had my heart pounding out of my chest. Dr.Bill, BobtheNavigator, Bash, Bent, Phatty, and I hit the skate trails and got some tips from Dr.Bill and made the most of it. Tough going since this was my first real try at skate skiing! |

| I put at "4" here because although I wasn't moving very fast I was at the end of my rope of energy. I think I know what I have to do to get in really good shape - head to Hardwood more often! |
