I couldn't go to my usual 4:30 class due to scheduling issues so I was proud that I dragged myself to the 6:30 pm class. It didn't end until after 8 pm, so by the time I showered and sat down to dinner it was 9 pm. Very late for me but I was starving. Totals: 18 days 1535 minutes |

Saturday, Dec. 22nd:
60 minute spin class with weight intervals 60 minute Pilates mat class Classes are packed on the weekend before Christmas. And the gym is open on both Christmas eve and Christmas day, thanks to our sizable Jewish membership, so if it snows, I'll be fine. I kind of like a good Christmas morning run, though, I must admit. It's never as quiet & I never feel such beneficence as I do then running past the sleeping houses. |

Saturday, Dec. 29th:
60 minute spin class with weight intervals 60 minute Pilates mat class, with a substitute teacher who does not-quite-orthodox moves to work on our butts. This teacher married a chef last year while I lived Upstate, traveled with him through China during November on a tasting and food-sourcing tour, and has gained at least 30 pounds since I last saw her, which is a surprise to see in a class instructor at a gym. |
