Welcome back, gardenerjoy. Was Ireland as beautiful as I've heard it is? One of my dream vacations is England/Scotland/Ireland. I'd love to do an "open days" tour to see all the gardens.

As of Friday, I was at 1175 minutes - well on pace to get to 1800 for the month. I went walking Thursday night and, about 4 miles into it, my shin splints started acting up so I've been sidelined since. I spent a lot of time in the garden yesterday, though, so I got some activity in.

It looks like everyone is doing great!

gardenerjoy 06-17-2012 08:37 PM

Thanks, Steph7409! Ireland was great! Everyone was friendly and cheerful, even when complaining about the economy (and they have a lot to complain about). It's a beautiful country. They aren't kidding about 40 shades of green! We were lucky with the weather and only had one day that was too rainy to fully enjoy.

I thought I would be out of town part of June, and now it looks like I will be home almost all month. I'd like to change my goal to 20 days of exercise. :)

Here's my weekend numbers:

Sat, 6-16: Simple yoga for 15 min & Exercise bike for 25min. I subbed the bike for walking, thought I did pretty good for not having been on it for 6 months!

Sun, 6-17: Simple yoga for 15 min & 30 min walk.

Thanks for the welcome gardnerjoy & glad you had a great trip. I hope to travel overseas someday!!

Found these exercises via Pinterest so did Sundays workout with the following increased modifications: 50 jumping jacks; 1 minute plank; 20 standing calf raises; 6 toe (full body) pushups; 1 minute Superman; 20 lunges (10 front, 10 back) each leg; added 20 frog squats.

Dogs walk too.


I like these workouts because they are short but intense, are a nice change of pace especially when you're short on time, and you can do these in addition to a run or less intense workout.

PT today was really a workout, so I'm counting it as 15 minutes.

Then, because I had a horrible day and ate way too much, I did 60 mins of cardio when I got home to get rid of that too-full feeling. So I'm at 1480 out of 2000 minutes for the month.

eta: gardening in hot weather shows real commitment, gardenerjoy! All I've done is turn on the soaker hoses.
