A lot going on right now.  I'll be more frank about it in a month, but trust me on this.  Did a little running at the Y this morning.  Knocked out a quick 2 miles.  Felt pretty good.

A very productive day!  Didn't get to exercise, but made an important decision on our future.  Looking forward to getting outside this weekend and doing some walk/running.  Ate very well today and going to continue to eat healthy this weekend.  Can't wait to get outside.

Had a nice walk on the ol' treadmill yesterday.  Felt good.  Today I am meeting a friend to walk.  He is just starting back, so we will not go far, but my hope is we can motivate each other.  He's a great guy and I'm looking forward to reconnecting with him.

Started writing down my sleep hours, my bp, and keeping a food log.  This will help me continue to focus on my goals.

Someone reminded me I had not been posting my exercises on my Blogger site.  Thanks.  I haven't been taking a hiatus, just not blogging.  Did get very sick Wed, Thu, Fri of last week but trying to do something every day.





This morning I bundled up and walked/ran in the cold.  Did 55:24 seconds, but I'll confess that most of this was walking.  Looking forward (did I just say that?) to getting in the pool this week and attacking some of this fat.

Swam today.  Did 21 laps in about 30 minutes (forgot to start my watch)  Wasn't pretty but wasn't terrible either. 

The pool is 25 meters, or 50 meters per lap.  Here is the math:

21 * 50 = Not nearly enough swimming.

Have a noon meeting tomorrow, and planning on taking the morning off tomorrow.

Yesterday, I only got in a 35 minute walk/run yesterday.  Right knee was hurting a bit so I backed off.  That night, after OU was outrun, overthrown, and overwhelmed I went upstairs and  lifted weights.  I felt better and slept like a baby.

This morning I dusted off the bike, aired up the tires and braved the chill. I had forgotten how much colder it is on the bike.  Ears and fingers got a bit nippy, but did an easy (almost) 12 miles.  Butt a little sore, but it always is at the beginning of a season.

Got a late start today at the Y.  A lot going on behind the scenes at work. 

Did a little over 3 miles, but most of it was running, so that's improvement!  Ate well, drank a lot of water, and hoping to get 8hrs tonight.  Going to be a good day tomorrow.......

Kicked it up a notch this morning.  Had hoped to get in the pool, but the pool had lots of seasoned citizens doing water aerobics.  Probably should have joined them.....if I could keep up.

Had a productive morning and looking forward to going to work today.  It's going to be a good day....it's going to be a good day.........repeat until you believe it.......

1-1-13 A cold and gray morning -What great day for a walk!
Welcome to 2013.  For some odd reason, I'm very excited about the changes and challenges this year will bring.   I'm planning on both!

I braved the 31 degrees and fog this morning and walked/ran. So much better than being on the treadmill. 

The watch said 49:12, I would guess about 3 miles. 

Thought it might be fun to attempt to log my miles this year.  These will be approximate, but could be interesting.
