stop watch 915am run.  Too late for my body that awoke at 630am (and 4am with a stomach ache for an hour-- too much squash and candy corn I guess for Sunday dinner).   I either have to go really early or after 9am due to my kids' separate schedules.  Not liking B-track at all for my two younger girls.  I end up "waiting around" to work out.  I actually made lunches, mandated them to get things done-- piano, dishes, then vaccumed downstairs.  By the time I left to run I was quite hungry having only eaten 1/2 banana.  Coming off steroids (last taper dose of 5mg was Sat night) is not easy for me.  I got pretty hungry on them.  I am pretty sensitive to adrenal shut off medications.  I have had Cushing's Syndrome twice in my life.  Scary.  Anyway....I just mozied along at whatever felt doable.  After course-tooling my run it came out to be over 8 miles--- 8.88 miles @ 8:16 AP.  Now off to do arms after I just ate some toast and drank some OJ.  Oh and had some cottage cheese.    Foot acted up at mile 6 but not too greatly.  Didn't even hurt when I started.  Not even a twinge  :D.   POST ARMS:  YIPPEE-- total of 60 pushups--- 12, 13, 10, 10, 15!!!!  120 seconds in between.  REGULAR PUSHUPS BABY!!!  This is AFTER I did two sets of planks (front, side, side) at 90, 45, 45 seconds.  After pushups I finished with circuit arms-- 2 sets of 10 to 12 as before increasing weights in some of the excercises.  Side raises (2 types), over head shoulder raises, biceps (2 types), triceps (two types), bench press and rows.  Done.

Great workout Julie! You have (maybe) inspired me to start doing pushups. You are my inspiration.
