Getting back to it

Had a good run with Jenny this morning.  Tried a variation on a regular route - going up Cavalier was tough and I had to stop and walk longer than the 1 minute interval.  Still feel like I'm going pretty slow and still recovering.  Both knees were letting me know they were there and not happy.

It was so interesting reading everyone's race reports.  Can't imagine surviving that marathon.  So glad I didn't get into St George this year.

Did Muscle up this morning with Cynthia.  Felt good to work hard.

4.40 miles  in 52 minutes running with Jenny and Leslie.  The rest of the mileage was walking.  It was so great to go with Leslie again.  It was quite cold to start out.  I'm dreading winter!

I dared to step on the scale this morning - haven't been on since the day after TOU.  I couldn't believe it - I was actually down to 149!  I haven't seen that in a LONG time.  Now if I can just keep going!!

 In the evening for YW we had an exercise night.  A friend of mine from HS days who now teaches fitness classes at the Rec Center came to teach the girls.  She spent about 50 minutes teaching a NIA class and then ended with about 20 minutes of Pilates.  It was fun and a great workout.  I really enjoyed the NIA class a lot and definitely had a good aerobic workout and worked up quite a sweat.  I wish I could get that in for cross-training but the scheduled time of the class won't work out with my schedule.

Muscle up this morning with Cynthia and Jenny.  Today's class went by so slowly.  Tuesday's class went by really quick so maybe that made today seem even longer.

Had a great run today with Jenny.  Total of 5 miles running/ 1 mile walking for warm up and cool down.  Felt good today and picked up the pace.  Ran up the hills.  Today was a good day.  It was COLD and it's only going to get colder.  That is definitely going to be a challenge.
