I think I had a touch of the stomack flu yesterday and one of my twins had it so I took the day off. There is no way I would have been able to exercise.

I got a good nights rest and felt much better today.

I ran 4 miles in 42 min, then I worked my inner and outer thighs on weight machines.

Then I rode the bike for 30 minutes. I went 5.50 miles on the bike.

I feel like I had a good workout.

I ran the first 4 miles in just under 42 minutes. Then I walked .25 uphill and streched.

I worked my arms and abs. Then I rode the bike 3 miles in 15 min.

So I have had this rash on the whole bacl of my body for the last week. I have no idea what it is from. I have not changed anything other than my exercise. I washed my bedding with extra rinse to make sure there was no soap in it.  So Last night I was so itchy that I took 2 allergy pills. I think they kicked my butt.

I did not want to get up today and o my run sucked. It took me an hour to go 4.35 miles. I did keep the incline up when I had to walk, but my legs were so tired that I don't think it was physically possiable to do any better today. I did have to stop and run to the bathroom so that did shave time off.

I spent the last 30 min working my abs. (And laying on the bench.)

I think I may be getting a cold as well. I did stop at good earth on my way home and got a good vitamin and some cod oil.

I still have the hives really bad and i could not sleep or sit still last night so I had to take something again. I had a really hard time getting out of bed.

I still made it to my gym appointment. 

I ran the first 3 miles in 33 minutes then I walked for  .25 then I turned up the speed and ran .75 then I walked and streched for another.20. I finished in 46:00. I felt drained but by the time I had walked over and weighed myself and sat down to do my abs I was feeling much better. So I worked my abs then I rode the bike for 15 minutes going 2.80. Slower than usual, but good considering how tired I am.   

I drank my first teaspoon of cod liver oil today. My husband laughed at me because I gagged so bad. I thought it was comming right back up. So I hope that gets easier for me.

I spent my entire day serching foe a bigger vehicle. We had all 7 kids with us and one had the stomack flu. I think that counts as something (Cross training) Maybe just strengthening my mind.  
We came home with a 2003 yukon GMC. It will take some getting use to but I like it. It was a very draining day.

After that I had to go to the youth harvest social. I played marshmellow volly ball and danced with the kids. I attemted to play glow in the dark tag until the lights went out and I saw all the people with necklaces running straight for me. I threw my bracelet and ran to the stage. Not before I got shoved and yelled at that I was out. I was the only leader out there and figured they were out to kill me. It would be just my luck to sprain my ankle or something playing a silly game with the young women and men.

I did pass on the rootbeer floats and the other goodies they were passing out.

Although My lunch and dinner were quick fixes and I could have chose much better things to eat.
