  • Just stopping in since we are half way through the month. I have not done my abs workouts at all! Big Fail this month. I have run 28 miles so far though so I am on track for reaching my 60 miles running. So not too bad.

    2. Walked to work, 3 kms, no gym, got a ride home = 3 kms
    3. 6 kms walking, 5 kms elliptical = 11 kms
    4. 6 kms walking, 5 kms elliptical = 11 kms
    5. Just 3 kms from last night, raining today so I took the bus to work and skipped the gym
    6. Slipped and fell on my coccyx yesterday, looks like no walking for a few days.
    7. I managed to slow walk 4 kms, but it hurt!
    8. Shabbat -- rainy and giving my sore coccyx a rest.
    9. No exercise, coccyx still a bit sore.
    10. 5 km on the elliptical at the gym, 3 km walk to work = 8 km today so far!
