The Hubs and I ran a 5k this weekend and I beat him! He beat me last time.

I am doing a thanksgiving themed cardio-strength class Wednesday, so I probably won't be moving that quickly Thursday.

Ok...nevermind....silly question. Of course you are.
Rent a tent and space heater?
Tarps around the car port and a fire pit?
Maybe just mukluks and hot cocoa!! smile


I'm too cheap to pay for a tent or space heater..but that doesn't mean I'm not asking people if they have one I can borrow!

My house is only 1700 sq foot. No basement. It's big enough when the kids are home, but not too big when it's just me. I'm praying for decent weather.

I am not a runner, I hate to run and almost never do, BUT since starting Insanity running isn't as bad as it used to be. We are on day 17 and I can see and feel a big difference. I went running with the hubby last night and made it further than I've ever done! Still don't think I'll turn into a runner though. I'm just trying to drop a few more pounds before we go to MI for Christmas.

Of course it's going to be 60 degrees on Thursday and I neglected to sign up for any Turkey Trot 5ks because I was sure it would be snowing or unbearably cold.... crazy

I got some of the most amusing looks this morning as I was running down the sidewalks in my full ninja suit, a cloud of steam rolliing off of me as I went along. My only gripe is that when I exhale, my face mask channels all the air up and out the eye hole area, which makes it impossible to wear sunglasses. 8 degrees when I started, glad I was able to wait until the sun was up at least. Burr though.

No running (or biking) until Dr. Knee says so (Friday at the earliest).
So pushups are high on the list of "something to do"! smile
150 so far today (Day 332). No plyometrics either, no tire throwing (torsional force) mad Pushups, dips, chins, reverse pullups, light bench (feet off the ground, high reps), seated military presses, curls, skull crushers.....
I'll think of something. wink

You hardly ever hear someone say "Michael Phelps was out with a torn ACL".... smile
Probably still gets all pruny though.

Swim in a lake, be tough, don't make excuses! laugh

Then, handstand push-ups in the shallows with your lower body out of the water. Sets of 5, come up for 10 seconds of breathing in between. Ready? GO!!!
