BEEN A WHILE

Ooops. It's been some time since I have logged on here, but it's only because of vacation. Last week wasn't a total bust, Colleen and I climbed two mountains (Rondaxe and Rocky Point) at Old Forge, hiked art Taughannok (sp?), went boating and walked around a lot. I don't think I mentioned the running that Colleen and I are doing. We've decided to take on the interval training. We did a week of five minute warm up then a 60 sec run followed by a 90 second walk and repeated that six times. It's much more fulfilling than a straight up run because we can actually finish it and feel good afterwards. Colleen is already starting to see results. Me-I just feel good.

Morning log

Was going to go running again this morning but my legs are way too sore. There will be some sort of exercise however. Most likely in the form of push ups and sit ups. There may be some squats.

Okay, so yesterday I actually worked out.Taking it slow so I don't hurt and then not want to do it. It's been a few weeks since I kind of lost motivation and I seem to be packing on pounds again. Alas, i am starting this jam up again. Maybe logging progress will help.
