I THINK, DDR is Dance Dance Revolution, a tape, I THINK... not sure...
Just had a really good 6.2k run, but it was hot and humid and I didn't run as well as I usually do ... I ran at 8pm and now it's 10:20 and I'm wired for sound, can't win
So Ilene, did you finally get Un-wired and to sleep? I hope so. I made myself go to bed at 10:30 so I could get into the gym this AM. I got in a 50 minute run - about 4 miles (had trouble keeping an accurate lap count) and then a good shoulder work-out.
Tiki -- Thanks for asking I finally managed to fall asleep at around 12:00 or so, I feel fine today though...
My plans are to go for a bike ride after supper it's way to hot at the moment, I am not complaining of the heat though, I love it, I think summer is finally here!!
Yup, DDR is in fact the video game "Dance Dance Revolution". The game plays up tempo dance music and scrolls a series of arrows up from the bottom of the screen. The arrows arrive at the top of the screen on the music's beat, by which time your feet are supposed to step on the corrisponding arrow on the plastic dance pad that you're standing on while playing. Arrows come at you in rapid succession and you end up doing all kinds of steps that almost feel like dance moves, especially since everything happens on the beat. It's a lot of fun and it's a decent workout, especially as things get harder and the arrows come at you quickly.

Oh IC it has a dance pad very cool!! Although I hate to dance ...
Yeah, I'm not big on dancing myself, but I do love music, and I have to say that dance music is pretty good stuff. I'm surprised at how much I enjoy the songs that go along with this video game -- many of them disco. Today I did another hard 30 minutes on my elliptical (Green Day's "American Idiot" on my headphones again) and then I jumped right off and tried to get an "A" grade on my dance performance on this great techno tune "Busy Child" on "light" difficultity level in DDR. This is pretty tough, as the song title suggests, you gotta get busy to do well in this song. And now for those of you who are following along at home:
Got up this AM and hit the gym for chest and tris. Then drove back home to put my clothes in the dryer and do Tae Bo. I've never done Tae-Bo after lifting weights and it was harder!
Went to the gym this morning.. About 16 mins on treadmill with high incline 9 mins on bike and 38 mins of upper body weight training and 250 crunches... Later on Im going for a walk and house cleaning!!
JFU, if you want a really vigorous workout, then by all means, come clean MY house instead. We both are in Michigan and I will gladly give you directions!
Today I am doing something really different... I have registered for the Relay for Life for the Canadian Cancer Society. It starts tonight at 6PM and finishes at 6AM tomorrow. We have teams and we relay walk ALL night !!!!!! Please send some : my way so that I can stay awake all night!!!
TIKI I like to clean.. as weird as it sounds, Im on my way!! LOL Its kinda refreshing, my friends makefun of me. Im not nes. a "clean freak" but when I clean I go all out. Someithng I learned from when I was younger. Open the windows turn the radio on really loud and just go..... relaxing to!
*Sigh* I slacked yesterday... only did DDR 16 mins. (I dont really like dancing either, but the music is good, and when you get sick of the songs, theres new versions of the game coming out all the time :P). And today I didnt feel so well. Maybe ill get some in today, or maybe ill go out for a walk . I'll go ab training now though
I followed JFU's lead yesterday and cleaned house top to bottom. Today I got in a good back workout - didn't skip the deadlifts - and then an hour of Tae Bo. I can't wait for bed time now cause I am WHOOPED!!!
