Happy Monday!

So I did NO walking this weekend and was feeling pretty crappy about being lazy...although I did start working on the disaster we've been calling the "playroom". HA
I woke up this morning after being up a lot last night with Miss Crabbypants and KNEW I needed to get moving.
I got brave and walked 3 miles!!!
I used this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDGFw9Bf6h0 (Walk Away the Pounds with Leslie Sansone 3 Mile Abs 46 min) It felt great! I don't think I will have the time to do this one regularly but it was great. I do not have the fancy ab belt thing though but I did use cans of soup. LOL

I did a very quick (because it is freezing literally!!!) 1.5 mile walk this afternoon.

Partially done for today....maybe.

So the .25 was really bugging me so I decided to do the .75 to make it even.
I probably did a little under but I also think I did a extra lap last night at the ice skating rink so calling it a "wash". LOL

I'm hoping to do another mile at some point today but not making any promises.

I walked/skated 2 miles outside this afternoon. LOL

Running

I went to the local ice skating rink to go running again this evening.
I walked and ran 1 mile.
I'm hoping by the end of the week to possibly be able to go running/walking outside.
It is supposed to be in the high 50's.


Miles Completed: 8.25

1/6/13 - Day Off

I took yesterday (Sunday) off from "working out".
We did go sledding though so that was technically a work out but I'm not counting it toward my miles.

I ran again.

Today was a busy day for me but I managed to go to the local ice skating rink and run 1.25 miles.
It felt great. My legs sure are sore from all this sudden exercise. My knee did not bother me today though so that is good.


Miles Completed: 7.25

My mom walked 1 miles today. So she has walked 4 miles.

Friday!

I didn't wake up early but the kids were a bit calmer this morning so I "locked" myself in the kitchen with the laptop and did the 2 mile walk again!

It was a bit easier today but still a great workout. Unfortunately, I had a little pain/discomfort in my right knee while doing the workout today. I'm hoping it is just because it isn't used to this much working out and won't become a bigger issue. I'm glad I got my workout done early today...it helps to not have to worry about how/when I'm going to find the time to get it done later in the day.

I ran.

So I didn't wake up early enough today to get my exercising done before the kids emerged from their beds.
Around 10:30am I thought I would be safe to do a quick mile...about half way through the craziness began...kids screaming, crying, running around like crazed maniacs and C was suddenly dying of starvation. @@  I had to quit. Thankfully my mom came over to watch the wild beasts and I went running @ the local ice skating rink.

Motivation!

An online friend (Gina) posted a 2 mile workout/walk yesterday and I was leery of trying it.
I fell asleep too early last night so at 5am I got out of bed and did this workout/walk:

About half way through I wanted to quit and was thinking why did I do this?!?!?! but I continued and finished it. 
I feel great, am drinking a big cup of water and will rest now until children start waking up.

Today is the day!

Today begins my yearly challenge of walking, jogging, running - doing something...at least 365 miles this year.
I just completed mile numero uno thanks to this:
Walking - Part 1: Start Quick & Easy

Ideally I would like to actually be able to leave the house to exercise but I wanted to get it in early today and well half of my family stayed up past midnight last night so they are still sleeping. LOL

Mile Completed: 1
