Beautiful Saturday=9 Miles!

Did 9 miles on the bike with Dave at Wolfe Park in Monroe today! super nice day, great feeling to be active outside.

If only tomorrow wasn't going to be rainy :(

Traveling...

So I am in NJ this week, and clearly have not been good about working out. How can I get motivated to not be so lazy when I travel? I have 3 weeks of travel planned for May alone! ugh. I need to find it in me to try out some hotel gyms. Maybe I can review them...

Running on the runway.... well not really

So today I had signed up for a 5k at JFK. I am not in running shape (although, my run/walk routine is a step in the right direction!) so why did I sign up? because it was on the RUNWAY of JFK! How cool is that? So cool that even my mom decided she wanted in (this is huge). So we were going to walk it together, with Dave (my friend Megster was running it, clearly a champ).

Sadly we got an email last night that said the course had changed due to security concerns. So I didnt get to run on the runway :(

However, I did get a better understanding of where my competitive side comes from. My Mother. Who decided that she had to finish before all the people who weren't dressed appropriately for the race (i.e. carrying a Coach bag or wearing jeans) and towards the end wanted to know if she was in the front of the pack or back. She was QUITE upset to find out we were in the back (really it had to do with where we started, not our pace). meanwhile only she would wear diamonds and full makeup to a 5k. needless to say I got an ab workout in from laughing so hard.

I have worked out 4 days in a row and let me tell you. I am feeling it!

Change in route

We did over 8 miles!! Yay us!!

Just call me Lance

So today Dave and I are headed out for a bike ride! Finally its a nice (semi-warm) day. We tried to go last week only to discover I am surrounded by hills! These legs are not quite ready for a constant uphill battle (ha!) so I decided that we should go down by the beach to ride where its flatter.





Here is the route I planned for us:

Should be good! especially now that I got some new bike gloves and a seat bag (god forbid I leave my bberry or lipgloss at home!). Gotta look the part.

Now if only he would wake up from his little siesta on the couch :)
