Day 9 of 20 done. Hopped on the treadmill today. Some walking, some walking on an incline (varied it between 3 and 7), some running (not very fast, 4.5/4.6mph) - 33 min. total. I really need to get on this thing more and get back to running on it. I find running easier than walking fast but never seem to have to motivation to get on it. Weird. The fact that I deleted my run playlist off of my ipod probably has something to do with that. Sometimes the body just needs a really good cardio workout.
Not sure on the doggies walk today . . . kinda miserable out. We'll see, maybe later.
eta: no dogs walk today.

Never trade what you want the most for what you want at the moment No matter how slow you go, you are still lapping everybody on the couch.

Day 10 of 20, done.
Xtreme Upper Body workout w/Chris Freytag, 40 min. Going to take the dogs out for a walk soon. It's bloody freakin' cold and windy out and I HATE walking in this weather but they didn't have walkie yesterday. If it's too much I'll likely just do a mile walk, 15-20 min tops.
eta: ^^ yup, this.
