Exercise! - Run/Walk/Swim Challenge ~ FEBRUARY

Time to set those goals for :val1: FEBRUARY :val2:

I am still working out of the area, although I should be home most nights, but may not have much time with my commute. So I will stick with a lower goal than I would like.

Angie and I did 3.5 with the mutts along the beach this morning.

3.5/50 MILES

Good luck gals!

I said at the beginning of the year I was going to run 200+ every month. This month will be tough with the short month and the slower pace, but no guts no glory -

12.86/200

I am ready for a challenge! I need to get back in control. I am going to go with 50 miles - any way I can get them - bike or treadmill. I am impatiently waiting for my replacement bodybugg to show up so I need some motivation.

Nice to see you again EZ!

Ok I am almost 100% thanks to finally getting into the doctor, so I am upping my miles - well I am trying to finish out a lazyman tirathalon by the 15th so I have a lot of biking and swimming to finish out.

Did 3 miles on the TM this evening. Good start to the month!

3/50 run/walk
0/75 bike

Did 5 miles on the bike after work and 3.5 to and from the park with DS.

Well hello TINAMAE good to see you again too! ENNAY since it is my birthday month I give the mother of my adopted grandkids a reprieve on 200 if needed! CAKSES I am so happy you are FINALLY feeling better!

Took the dogs for 2.5 today after work....did not feel like it! Driving 185 (round trip) miles and working all day makes for a tired Gary!

6/50 MILES

I did 4 miles on the bike this morning. I gotta start somewhere!

ACK! I forgot to set my alarm clock this morning and missed my run. Shoot.

Happy Birthday month Gary!

Wow, that tri sounds a lot more doable to me. I like running, I like swimming and I can do the 2.4 miles for this one, but the bike kills me. Especially since I can't bike outside because of the cold/ice/snow. And 112 miles in the gym...I'm just not enjoying myself. That is a lot of running though. Oh, the choices!

2.5 aroung the hood with the dogs after work....talked to the neighbor that was robbed....first one in our neighborhood since I moved in in '79....oh well.

8.5/50 MILES

I got five miles on the bike this morning before work. I am trying to get back into the swing of things.

You guys are doing great. This tri thing sounds interesting.

So, today I took time off the tri thing and did some circuit training. My muscles feel all wobbly now. After I ran a very slow 2 miles (took me like 25 minutes, ugh). Tomorrow, back to biking and swimming!

2.5 in the rain after work with the dogs

11/50 MILES

3.5 miles with the mutts after the rained stopped this morning. A gorgeous morning with sun and a nice breeze....enough for a sweatshirt but not long pants....YES!

14.5/50 MILES

18/50 MILES

Angie and I didn't head to the beach like planned because of the rain....we did do 3.5 around the neighborhood.

Ok its taking me a while but I am getting back into the swing of things. Five miles on the bike this morning. :bike2:

Angie and I took the mutts and did the 3FC 5K on a gorgeous but cool afternoon...rain is coming soon.

24.25/50 MILES

Angie and I took the mutts around the 'hood after church.

I logged 5 miles on the treadmill this afternoon. (I was trying to work off everything that I ate and drank last night.) I also logged 3 miles earlier this week that I didn't report. I am getting there.

21/50

EZ! you are past the half way mark! Keep up the good work.

Okay, I realized that today was February 15. I got on my bike and did 7 miles. I am now at 28/50 for the month. Its a short month and I realized I needed to get going... :tread: :ebike:

Holy Moly where did the time go? I've been neglecting this post (and my exercise). My new treadmill comes in 2 days though, so lookout! Still going to try to get my treadmill miles in for the month.

Cakes, contratulations on the new treadmill. :tread: I love my treadmill and I cried when the last one died a sudden tragic death. :cry:

I logged two miles this morning. I realized that I have committed a crime. The name of the tread is run/walk/swim - - I have logged a few miles on my exercise bike! Please forgive me :^:

Tomorrow is weigh in day... wish me luck!

Got my new baby and logged 3 miles on her. Beautiful feeling to know I can now run whenever I want to!

16/50 run/walk

Too much going on after work so far this week for any miles.

Tina I hope the weigh in was all that and NOT a bag of chips!

Cakses treat that new baby well! ABUSE IT!!!! Run it to death....wink

:carrot::carrot: update from the scale...down 3 pounds. I did 4.5 miles on the treadmill today and two on the bike. (I was trying to work off the Chick-fil-a nuggets)

Cakes, don't you just love knowing that you can jump on the "mill any time with having to drive somewhere or even change your clothes! This is the third treadmill I have had in 10 years. I finally got smart and spent more than $500 on one.

EZ, I hope you can log some miles this week end.

I was able to get out for 3 with Angie and the girls.
