Day Forty-Seven thru Day Fifty!!!

Day Forty-Seven:

Today, I really needed to make up for the fact that I didn’t do anything yesterday since I was a little out of it by the time I was done with work.

The plan was to go downstairs before Group Groove for a pre-work out….but that did not happen. Instead I got caught up in chatting with some of my fellow co-workers and members who came through the door. You would think that after seeing some of these people all the time, there wouldn’t be anything left to talk about….but you’re wrong! If the only thing I had to do to train for this marathon was talk….then I would be a marathon champ by now!

By the time I finished chatting with everyone, I realized that I only had 10 minutes to get ready for class…yikes, where did the time go! I quickly got ready for class and than flew downstairs to apologize to one of my friends who I said I would workout with. After making a promise that I would work out with them Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next week (which I plan on keeping), off to class I went.

Tonight’s class was tons of fun, although when they changed one of the tracks on us…it wasn’t a pretty sight in the back row. One of my friends and myself couldn’t do anything right on that one…let’s just say that we both had to left feet.

Day Forty-Eight:

Today’s workout consisted of going on a 4 mile hike through the city forest with a friend and her two dogs. It was a lovely day for a walk outside, despite the fact that you could feel winter in the air. Oh, how I long for the day’s of summer!

This was my first time ever going for a walk through the city forest and I have to say that I did enjoy myself, even right up to the very end….when I twisted my ankle. Hey, it wouldn’t be like me to not get hurt somehow!

Day Forty-Nine:

Today’s schedule was so jammed pack that I amazed that I was able to squeeze in a workout, but I did.

After our staff meeting, I ran over to the fitness center for the quickest, intense workout on the elliptical ever! Well….I probably wouldn’t call it the quickest since I was on that baby for a solid 50 minutes, where I managed to burn over 600 calories! I decided that it would be best not to go for a run today since my ankle was still a little tender from yesterday.  Afterwards, it was a quick stretch to make sure my legs didn’t cramp up and then I was off again.

Day Fifty:

Not much to report on today. Took the day off, but since the Y will be closed two day’s this week…I’m going to make the most of the first three day’s. Thinking that I might just move into the Y….officially!
