Oops, lost my head again....

Day Fifty-Two:

Today’s workout didn’t consist of going to any classes; instead it was a trip downstairs to the fitness center.

My workout started off with 10 minutes on the bike, and then I moved on to the elliptical for another intense workout. By the time I finished my 30 minutes here…I’d worked up quite a sweat. I love this machine because I can burn so many calories and in the very end, I can feel like I’ve done a workout. From there I moved to the row machine. I love this machine too, due to the fact that not only does it keep your heart rate up, but it works both the arms and legs!

After a nice stretch, which is something that I usually forget to do it was time to end my workout. Another day done!

Day Fifty-Three:

Knowing that the Y is going to be closed for the next two day’s do to the holiday called “thanksgiving”, I knew that I had to get a workout in today and I had to make it a good one!

Once again, I didn’t join in on any classes…although I did think about making my way back to that Group Step class. But instead, downstairs I went were I joined one of the follow Biggest Movers for their pre-workout! We started off on the EFX, it’s not one of my favorites but it does get the job done. Especially when you change the direction that your feet are going…boy you start feeling it in your thighs. By the time my 30 minutes were up on this machine, mine were screaming at me!

From there I decided that I’d go back to the row machine. It’s a nice way to work the arms and legs…but not feeling like you’re over doing it. Although, every time I do use this machine the song “row, row, row your boat” keeps popping into my head!

Day Fifty-Four:

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!

No workouts today…it just wouldn’t be right! But I did do pretty good today, I didn’t over eat!

Day Fifty-Five:

Well, today’s workout was NOT your typical workout. First off my day started out at 2:30am for yep, you’ve probably already guessed it……BLACK FRIDAY SHOPPING!!!!!

By the time I finished my shopping and decided to call it a day, it was a little after 6pm, talk about a long day! My friends (who didn’t join me until either the 4am hour or 11am hour) and I managed to get some pretty good deals and with all the walking we did today, we figured that would totally count as a workout! We managed to hit 4 department stores and conquered the mall!
We even did great when it came time to order lunch, we all ordered the same thing…..SALADS!

By the time I made it to where I was staying for the night, I was dead! After letting the dogs out and feeding them…we crashed on the couch.

Day Fifty-Six:

I’m still a little tired from yesterday, but I some how some way managed to get myself to the Y for Group Groove! I had to go today because it was going to be a HUGE class. A few of the Biggest Movers were joining in on the class and for some of them; this was their very first time ever!

We ended up having class in the gym and some how I ended up in the front row! That doesn’t usually happen (I prefer to be in the back row) and I just kept saying to myself…please don’t screw up any of these moves because you know people are looking at you! I think I managed to do pretty good, there may have been one time when I didn’t know what I was doing (we were grooving to some older songs, not the new stuff).

All in all, it was a FUN class!!!!

Day Fifty-Seven:

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh……………. I just realized that in one week from today is the 5k. I’m so not ready for this. How in the world did it sneak up on me so fast? I thought I still had more time, at least another week or two. I’m not ready, I’m so not ready…. I haven’t been outside for any trial runs, nothing! I don’t think I’m ready, I don’t think I can do this….why, why did I tell people that I would run a 5k with them…and at the beginning of DECEMBER!!!!!

Guess I better start cracking on this; otherwise it might not look so pretty. Let’s just pray that I don’t get hurt!!!!
