Walked 2.5 miles today even though it was muggy. And did 30 minutes in yard. I hate outside. We need climate control devices to make the outside more pleasant for me.

I feel lazy when I look at what everyone else is doing. Then I remember I am lazy so it's all good again. :D

GOALS:
  • Complete lazy man marathon: 6.5 miles
  • 12 hours cardio: 30 minutes
  • 8 hours yard work: 1 hour
  • Be able to do 50 squats in a row: No
  • Be able to do 2 full on my toes pushups in a row: No
  • Learn 2 beginner yoga poses: No

Week 1 is done and I'm right on track. However after looking over my workout schedule for September, I'm only supposed to workout 13 times not 14 so if my goal can be changed to that I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

09/04- P1S2 (55 minutes) 2/13
09/06- P1S1 (55 minutes) 3/13

Ugh, I have such a throbbing headache today. I don't wanna walk, I don't want to, I don't want to...and now I'm going upstairs to get my sweat pants, t-shirt, and tennis shoes on. (I figure if I type this, I'll do it, lol!)

Goal: Walk 25 laps = 30 miles
9/1--Morning lap with DH, Evening lap with DD / 2 laps down
9/2--Morning lap with DH / 3 laps down
9/3--Morning lap with DH / 4 laps down
9/4--Morning lap, Evening lap with DH / 6 laps down
9/5--Morning lap / 7 laps down
9/6--Morning lap with DH / 8 laps down
9/7--Midday walk with DH / 9 laps down

Edited to add: Yep, that was as "not fun" as I thought it would be. Nevertheless, I'm glad it's done!
