Thurday, April 15, 2004: 30 minutes treadmill, jogging. 30 minutes elliptical. 30 minutes treadmill, walking on incline.

Wednesday:

Bowling. 174 184 116. to that last game!! hahahaha

After taking a couple days off because of a horrible cold, I climbed back on my GAZELLE today.

Thursday...30 minutes of pilates

rapid speed cleaning most of day. took old queen bed outta kid's room, set up new bunk beds ( by myself) and so much more didn't stop moving until after 3 hours at least. the sun was shining i couldn't help myself. must clean..

I cut the back yard today... Least I could do since the other portion of the day I have been asleep. Our back yard is about 3/4 an acre on just enough of a slope to kick you butt while push mowing it. My next door neighbor whom I have nevet met kept looking over, or should I say peaking over to make sure I was still breathing. Tell you what it kicked my butt.

Friday, April 16, 2004: 45 minutes treadmill on incline. I must have hurt my neck earlier this week, it's so stiff and sore I can't turn my head. So I'm dialing it down until Monday. Bummer.

Saturday, April 17, 2004: 45 minutes walk/jog treadmill on incline. Neck is starting to feel better. I always seem to injure the right trap, upper and lower, in the same places. Why?

Walking for 45 minutes today.

Seek...how did you hurt your neck? Maybe be it is in the same place all the time because you have a habit of moving a certain way that you are not aware of.

to the park today to walk the track., and let the kids play and burn there energy at the park, and collect straw for my besom. multi tasking gotta love it.

I don't know, Mauvais, I wish I did. There's just a certain spot in the deep levels of the upper right trap that gets torn and then seizes up the whole neck. Ditto for a certain spot on the lower right trap near the spine.

I guess I should go to a sports medicine doctor. A regular doc will only say "don't do that anymore" which is no help at all, since I don't know what I did to cause the injury! Thanks for asking, it's starting to feel much better today.

Seek, I'm glad your neck is starting to get better! I know how painful that can be.

Had a great, 1 hour cardio workout at the gym today. Started running again. And I'm not dying on the elliptical anymore.

Way to go ellis! BTW check your private messages dahling...

Glad your neck is better Seek!

Thanks, everyone!

Sunday, April 18, 2004: 30 minutes elliptical, 45 minutes treadmill on incline. Tomorrow if all goes well I'll start my training program, learning to run again, not just a walk/jog. I found a ten week interval-training program on the Runner's World web site. I'm going to try that first. If all goes well I could be running by July 4th weekend. If I'm really lucky, I could maybe enter a 3K by Labor Day!

Did my Gazelle and I am eating "Clean". --Pookie

SEEK, I would love to try an elliptical -- they look like fun.
