Saturday: Powerwalk - 1 hr. + 10 mins. + stretches before & after
What a STUNNING day of weather we have today! It was quite humid when I first headed out for my walk--it appears to have just stopped raining before the sun came out--but still beautiful!
I could really feel my not having exercised regularly lately. I am always tired walking up "the big hill" but, today, I was tired even BEFORE I got to the hill...but kept on pressing through it and made it over an hour. Yay!

Tuesday: Got in a little functional fitness today by dropping my car at the dealer for service and then walking to a nearby shopping center. Out of the 2 hours between dropping off and picking up the car, I was on my feet for all but about 20-30 minutes of it but wasn't always booking along at a good pace--sometimes I was shopping. It was flat surface walking--and not the intense hills I'm accustomed to--so it was an easier hike than I'm used to, which is good since I need to ease my way back into exercising regularly.
The only downside of my jaunt is that I miscalculated the temperature by about 15 degrees because it was very windy, which I did not feel when I stepped outside my door this morning to gauge what I should wear, so I was slightly underdressed but not dangerously so.

monday: cardio intervals (treadmill, elliptical, bike, jump rope, rowing machine)
Goals: 1. Stop thinking like a chronic dieter and start living to inspire. 2. HALT (hungry, anxious, lonely, tired) I will stop and tune in with myself should I experience these things, and respond with something healthy. 3. One word 2008: courage 4. Eat slow and mindfully.
