[HumorMe00 127]

2 more super early morning workouts for another 1.45 hours.

Hopefully I'll still hit my goal, but this cold/flu ickiness I have is really putting a damper on things

13 hours down/ 3 to go

Short 5 mile run (it's hard to believe that a 5 mile run is a "short" run nowadays!) and 2 mile walk today. Running the Best Damn Race 10K this weekend. Should be a fun race in my hometown. Disney Princess Half Marathon in 3.5 weeks! My running anniversary is in a few weeks. I can't believe that I've been working out regularly for this long. Biggest success has been preventing injuries by slowly increasing miles, not over striding, and of course wearing good shoes.

Met my running and walking goals for the month, planning on getting on my bike tomorrow and Thursday.

Run: 60 (Goal: 60)

Walk: 66 (Goal: 60)

Bike: 15 (Goal: 30)

Total: 141 (Goal: 150)

Feel better soon!

I'm down with the sickness too.

I danced yesterday and over did it. Still doing some yoga and walking today.

I made a BOMB Soup today. Sooooooo good! Root veggies and chicken and spinach.

Taking oregano oil, Reishi mushroom, loads of Vit C and turmeric. Using the sinus rinse is keeping I the head congestion in check. Happy happy happy about that.

I must dance in the morning :-0

I'm not going to make my goal this month, but I did a lot of good stuff.

Hey there everyone!! Work has been keeping me busy busy so I haven't been able to check in till now but I am happy to say I made my goal for the month. I ended the month at 122.25 miles! I did better this month than the last 2 months so that makes me very happy. I have still been in a plateau state. I have been bouncing between 284 to 287 lbs for the last month. Kinda frustrating but I know I need to step up the exercise more. No excuses...just have to do it!

Great job everyone!! C-ya next month!

Hey everyone. I'm sorry I haven't been keeping up with this thread very well. I have been keeping up with my fitness...sorta. I blew away my running goal by logging 132 miles...the second most I've ever logged. I didn't come close to meeting my swimming goal but I hope next month will be better.

If there's going to be a february thread someone else is going to have to start it because I just haven't been around consistently enough to do it. Fiddle?

I don't remember what my January goals were once I switched over to weight lifting... but I am now lifting 150# on the leg press and 40# on the bench press. I do know that it appears I have lost one single pound since New Year's
