You guys are so inspiring. Going to the gym has become a no-brainer for me and, once there, I really try to push myself. While on the treadmill today, I started to get bored as usual, thought about all the other things I needed to get done and almost cut my workout short. Then I thought of Gale and her 750 calories burned and kept my lazy a** going. Thanks!

PopcornGal 05-19-2011 12:37 PM

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone.

ms23 - that is scary. I am glad you are okay and didn't sustain any serious injuries.

Only had time for a short walk last night before class but at least I got some miles logged. So -

Yesterday: 1.5 miles
