I was not very faithful to my routine while we were on our trip. I did run a couple times, on a treadmill, on a cruise ship. That was pretty weird. I could feel the ship movement. The running was not hard and I was able to pick up the pace even though p90x has overthrown running.

Today it's back to p90x. Chest, shoulders and triceps + abs.

are you going to post before-and-after photos? Burt did.

Yeah, but Burt's kinda creepy.

How was your anniversary and stuff?

So, are you seeing any results yet?

From Tracy on Mon, Jun 24, 2013 at 19:49:25 from 50.103.228.243

I don't know. I didn't take any pictures :)

We went on a cruise and stopped at Jamaica and Grand Cayman. The coolest part was getting to hold a giant wild stingray at Grand Cayman.

I didn't take any pictures on the cruise either...

But a serious response to your questions: Bonnie, I feel weird posting pics of myself. You know Burt and his photoshop skills. And his creepiness.

And April, I am stronger. I can lift more and/or do more reps of all the exercises. As far as how I look, all my indulgences last week wiped out my burgeoning abs. I gained 3 pounds, but I'll lose it this week. I need to test how it has affected my running. I'll do a 5K next week, but I don't think it'll tell me anything definitive, since it will probably be in the late day heat.
