Saturday would usually be my aerobics class day but I awoke this a.m. feeling a strain or something in my pectoral/breastbone region so, knowing how active that class is and how hard it makes me breath, I figured it might not be the best thing for me today. Since it was another pretty day, I headed out for a powerwalk. I didn't push it quite as hard as I usually would to keep my breathing from getting too hard but I still walked up my usual long, steep hill and walked a few miles. Sure was getting hot by the time I got home, but it felt great when I left.

Done. 45 minutes. I liked the walk a lot and I really moved. I think that I sometimes suffer from inertia. It is tough to get started after a few days of light exercise, but once I get going I can maintain pretty easily and I enjoy the process.
Posting for accounability today. Dh has just taken dd to the dentist. I am alone and would love to sit sipping tea reading. I will go out for a power walk- 40 minutes. I'll post here later.
I had an unplanned off day today. I woke up with a terrible headache and, when I laid back down after deciding not to exercise, I goofed in resetting the alarm so I was an hour late to work.
Since I didn't get any intentional exercise done on Monday (tho I did cart 4 loads of laundry back and forth down the street in the heat), I need to exercise Friday, Saturday and SUnday to keep my schedule of 5 days a week.

Not doing well at getting back on the exercise wagon after vacation. Sunday is usually my off day from exercise and I was really tired yesterday so I lazed about and just unpacked, grocery shopped and such. Today, I carted 4 loads of laundry back and forth down the street to the laundry room and sweat enough that it FELT like I was exercising cuz it was HOT today! But no intential exercise today either. Plan to get to the gym tomorrow, my last day of vacation before I return to work.
