(what's the matter, Little Chick... don't trust me not to delete the thread? )

[little chick]

lol ellis I just figured that you have been busy lately I know what a good job you can do updating things.

[cac]

Not sure what my goal was but I wound up for the last three weeks doing the elipse machine 40 minutes on Mondays and Tuesdays and walking/joggin 4.5 miles 3-4 times a week. I would like to continue this when I get back from vacation and add weight training.

cac

I have continued the running 3-4 days a week and have added the weight training. I had a personal goal of running 7 miles without stopping and I accomplished this!

[Gane]

So far for July I did over 340 minutes...so August I want to do 440 minutes or more.
