hi all -

after talking w/my surgeon and my trainer, i'm taking my goal weight down by 8lbs to 117. I'm pretty short, 5' & can still see where my lower body would need to slim down some. As I crept to my original 125lb goal, I figured I would re-asses & so a new challenge is on & i'm going to step up the training for the summer.

in addition to tsd/thurs - my trainer "trains" some members of the Baylor Football Team on Wed/Fri (early 5am) - i'm going to hit up Wed morning conditioning just to see how fit i really am..LOL.

i'd like to be 120lb by the first of Aug - when i visit my parents who i havent' seen since i had the surgey...for me exercise is the only way i can get close to the scale goals set......

Sooooo.. today -

2mile run

50min training session - windsprints / ladder drills / squats / lunges , abs , shoulder - tri - bi

plan on getting some swimming in later on...

first time in 4yrs played 18 holes of golf. forgot how much fun that was, except hubby and father in law wished i didn't talk so much - must have been the frequent visits of the "beer cart":eek:

Happy Father's Day! :biggrin2:

Went to the park this morning before the rain comes today!!!

Gotta play catch up from the weekend.

Friday morning was both lower body and cardio of 65 minutes on elliptical and 25 minutes (2.1 miles ran in 20 minutes) on treadmill.

Saturday morning was 65 minutes on elliptical and 25 minutes (2.15 mile run in 20minutes).

Sunday went at it HARD. Set the treadmill for 60 minutes. Decided to run until I could not run anymore. Hit the 5 mile mark @ 50:25. Got in a total of 6.26 miles in 65 minutes (incl. cool down). Then hit the elliptical for 25 minutes.

I've never run that far at one time. Heck, until the 5k's this summer, I've never run half that distance at one time. I couldn't believe I was able to do that.:biggrin:

This morning was 65 minutes on elliptical and 15 minutes (1.05 miles in 10 minutes) on treadmill. Tonight is upper body again.

Got on-call today... so I went walking around the subdivision to make 2 miles.

Tess

Wow Ceradad did a 10k!!! Way to go!!!!!!!

10k is my high limit right now. Takes me just over an hour to hit it.

I ran 45 mins today (about 4.5 miles)

Swam for 25 mins.

Last night i biked 20miles.

between golf & 2 days worth of Water volleyball my right forearm has a huge lump which HURTS- pretty tender.
