Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

Thank You Southie for your support.

Remaining week

Wed - 50 mins cardio (not including the expedition session thru foot of snow; while pushing baby's stroller to get the kids from school; That should count as something?)

Thursday - 60 mins cardio

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

I would count the stroller pushing thru the snow!

Keep it going.

Thus week I have let myself go mon thru Friday. No matter. Will do something weekend

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

I am not keeping up! AT ALL!!! All I do is sit,,, work and eat - the whole freaking day!
I need some motivation and a diet change crappy cravings ;(

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

^ Today is the day. Start with baby steps. And work your way up

Am going to run about 5 K.

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

Today was definitely NOT the day!!! I overdosed on sweets! I need to be thrown outta the window *ahhh * seriously

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

You will do fine. It is a process. One step back, two forward.

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

Inshallah!

Did nothing this week. But no matter. Tomorrow IS another day.

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

Sunday:

  • 3k run at medium pace (25 min)
  • and 3 hours of cricket (thats in ground and not on Xbox)…does that count? :bummer:

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

^ Where did you play cricket? Indoor field? :hmmm:


As for this week so far so good…Right on track :k:

Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday = 1.5 hr cardio each day. 50 squats (Monday & Wed)

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

^ that is great progress. Jumped from 1 to 1.5h cardio.

After a week of doing nothing, on Tuesday, walked 0.75 miles from one terminal to another in Min/st Paul airport with laptop in tow.
Walked / jogged 3.5 miles approx sight seeing in Chicago Tuesday evening.

Today, plan to do some running and wts in hotel gym.

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

With little kids n running the house I cannot afford more than 90 mins for myself to take out, I have the endurance to go more but that’s the max where I keep it for now. sometimes I get embarrassed of the length of my workouts but It is what it is :halo:

Your week is looking interesting and fun :slight_smile: My husband and I loved trekking thru the terminals back in the day; now we actually dread it in fear of losing a kid or two :hehe:

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

Nope proper cricket ground. Last I checked I ran around 1.5 miles on the cricket field during 2 games of 10/10

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

90 min at a time is plenty long. You can get same effete of a 120 min workout if u squeeze in 30 MIN later in the day.

Yes airport is good place to get workout. But that was not out of choice. Had to get from one terminal to another.

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

  • 3k run last night in under 30
  • 40 min or cardio during lunch time today.

End of Feb is fast approaching. I have to hit this month goal so given that begum skips her gym tonight, I might go for 3 k run (or walk again)

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

At least someone is exercisiing. Last 4 weeks shot. Will resumensoon.

Re: Another new season, another clean slate, hope springs eternal

13 lbs gone ( true)! Now excuse me while I take a bite of that chocolate.
