An un-sound workout.
DS wheedled a ride to school from me today because we all stayed up late to watch the Philly’s win their ball game. (can I get a YAY here?) I said yes, with the stipulation that he had to give our one remaining pair of ear buds to me for my workout. His last pair went through the wash and were agitated to an early death.
“Okay, Mom.”
Time to leave for school and he can’t find them anywhere. I specifically put them in his hands not 10 hours earlier. He suggested that maybe I could work on my lip-reading skills. I glanced over sharply to inspect his face for any sign of mockery.
So there I was, facing a bank of silent TV’s on the elliptical. I promised myself that I could stop after 20 minutes, but watching the different numbers flashing up on the elliptical screen ~ miles, calories and time ~ I was inspired to stay on it for 30 whole soundless boring minutes.
I reckon there’s no such thing as a “bad workout” ~ after all, I could have stayed home and read the paper while swilling joe and smoking cig’s.
I’ll just call it an “un-sound workout”.

Thanks Susan for reading my blog aka rant, lol.
I went to a gym class once only to discover it was cancelled. I didn’t have my Ipod but said “heck I’m here might as well do something” so I got on the treadmill. It was the LONGEST 20 minutes of my life. I couldn’t stay on there any longer. Kudos to you for doing 30 mins..I probably woulda been asleep.
Good for you! Me? I stayed home and blogged while swilling joe and smoking cigs.
And stressing….
It’s hard to do when you’re used to being entertained while working out. When I’m getting tired, sometimes a commercial is enough to send me on my way
