Week 21

Tuesday
Ran around the Bueno's just a short run, but feeling good! I have 4 dance classes, plus a business mixer tonight that I need to look sharp for, so didn't have much time to run, but it felt good to squeeze it in!

Week 20

Tuesday & Wednesday
Okay, so I have been assigned 12 dance classes a week for EduDance. Crazy! It just so happens that on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have 4 classes each. Oy. Sooooo.......my energy is pretty exhausted after that! I have 1 class on Mondays, 4 on Tuesday, 2 on Wednesday, 4 on Thursday, and 1 on Friday. Needless to say, I usually get pretty tired and just want to flop out on the couch after Marli is in bed.

BUT, I did do a power walk on Tuesday and Wednesday and I am planning on running M, W and F and just walking on T and R. That will give me the exercise I need without burning me out! Anyway, it feels good to walk and stretch, so no harm in that!

Thursday
I walked around the Bueno's today. I really need to get back running. For the short few months that I was diligently running daily, I look back at those pics and I am liking the way I look. Not so much now. Soooo.....off to run next week!

Week 19

Monday (20)
Ran around the block near the Bueno's. About 20 minutes. It felt good, but I'm needing to rebuild my stamina, so that's what I'll be doing this week.

Tuesday (20)
Did the same run around the block at the Bueno's. It felt much better than yesterday! So, I'm going to go a little farther and longer tomorrow, but not overdo it. I'm hoping to do another race in February. Good news!!! Well, Ibis lost his job this past Friday, but he was hired on by another company that does the same stuff on Monday, so he started his new job today! I'm so happy and I feel so blessed that we didn't have to deal with unemployment for too long.

Wednesday (30)
Well, I didn't get to run longer than I have been running this week. I just did my 20 minutes and then had to head home. I had a lot going on today, so I couldn't fit it anymore than that, but at least I was out and running! It felt good and I'll be able to run longer next week, definitely. Coco, Geno, Tristan, Mia and Marli are going to Disneyland tomorrow for Tristan's birthday. I sooooo wish I could go, but I have 4 dance classes and my MK meeting tomorrow night, so I can't really afford to get a sub for all for classes! If it was just one, I'd definitely do it, but not 4! Oh, well, I'll take Marli on my birthday, since I get in for free and she's free because she's under 2. We'll have fun!

Week 18

On Monday, I went walking the long walk around Granite. I've had to just walk lately, but it was great going to the gym last week to run on the treadmill and be on the eliptical. I also went walking on Tuesday. Unfortunately, no walk on Wednesday.....just didn't happen. I will be walking/running tomorrow morning and then it's off to LA for a Mary Kay Jamboree weekend. Nickey will be coming with me and we'll be back on Saturday evening at some point. I'm trying to eat better.......but gosh darnit! I just love cake. :o)

Week 17

I went to the gym this morning with my mom and Marli. Marli got to play at the Kid's Club for the time I was working out. She had fun! I did the eliptical for 35 minutes and then ran on the treadmill for 25 minutes. Good workout and it felt great to get back into the swing of things. I'll be going to the gym again tomorrow evening with my mom, so I'll probably work on some weight training and abs in addition to cardio. I did do a little ab work today, too.

I went up to Salt Lake City on Tuesday and then drove back on Wednesday. It was for my mission reunion and it was sooo good to see everyone! Unfortunately, not everyone could make it, but I'm glad I went. It had been a while. :o) I'll post pics soon.

I did end up going to the gym on Saturday. I did the eliptical for 20 minutes and then ran on the treadmill for 15. I also did the 24 minute workout rotation, which works all your arm and leg muscles. Felt great! I'll be running tomorrow, hopefully. I have to sing at a funeral in the morning, so I hope that I'll get a chance at some point. I have lots to do!
