  • Wed, Sept. 12:
    -Upper body weights routine. Added overhead press, lots of renegade rows as well. Humbling but I'm excited to progress! 6 minutes on the Stair stepper too.
  • Wed, 9/12

    30 mins stationary bike, level 6, 6.5 miles
  • September 12 : 6.05 mile run (50:42); 45 minute core workout
  • 9/12

    Slipshod exercise day. On the road with work today and only got done after 10pm. 1.5mi hike in the dark tonight. We were rewarded by coyote howls a few hills away. Couple sets of pushups/stretching. Compensated by reducing meals a bit. Tomorrow is another day!
  • Thursday, Sept. 13:

    45 minutes Stairmaster stepmill, resistance dropped to seven, aerobic intervals
    60 minutes Pilates class, with the talkative, bright, highly self-absorbed Pilates instructor who left the gym while I was gone, but came back tonight to sub. She greeted me with enthusiasm. She seemed not to know about my apartment being flooded out. While I was away she got married and gained a substantial amount of weight, which of course, is fine, but probably more noticeable because she is a Pilates instructor. In class, we were working with nine-pound bars, which I found easy.

  • Check out my new avatar to the left! This is me waving my hat around after climbing Hat Mountain in southern Colorado. I used to climb mountains with an extra 34 pounds on me and I don't know how I even did it. It's SO much easier now!

    A great deal of flooring put down in the living room. Not sure how many calories burned there, but my back feels it. More stretching before bed.
