Gym Is Open (Monday)

I plan to go to the gym after work tonight and do 45 minutes on the treadmill, 30 minutes of strength training, then a good long stretching session. I'm kind of stiff from my 5 mile walk yesterday. What did you do to move your body today? Lori

Hey Lori, I'm at home today so I think I am just going to walk on my treadmill for about 1 hour if I can. That walk from Saturday still has me a little sore. Have a great day. Lorraine

Lorraine, I understand sore...but, you will probably feel better after you do the treadmill. You may not want to do a whole hour...listen to your body, if you feel pain, stop. You are doing great though! Lori

Congrats on the 5 mile walk, Lori! That's awesome! I have not decided which DVD's to do tonight, but it's "lower body" day and that means 45 minutes of cardio followed by lower body toning and abs. Actually, now that I think about it, I'm in the mood for some step aerobics. So maybe I'll do one of Jane Fonda's step classes and pop in a toning tape after that. Tracy

Tracy, Sounds great! I doubt I could do a whole step aerobics class...knees... Keep it up girl! Lori

I did a short walk today. I also need to vacuum the rug, so I'll get a bit more exercise doing that. Kix

Sounds good Kix! As for me, I keep getting tears in my eyes as I keep having to deal with my friend's memorial that is this Friday and I'm already getting calls as I told someone a few months back that when and if Susanne died, that I would take on her festival responsiblities for July. Well, she has died and the message has already gotten out so now I'm being contacted by artists to book them and I don't have any info yet. I'm going to try and get people to hold off until November 9 when then next festival committee meeting is so I can get my bearings. It is so sad. Lori

You've really had a tough few days, what with your cat and your friend passing away the same week. Sending healing thoughts your way, Kix

Leslie and I walked this morning, then Bob and I went to the park and walked some there. I will do pilates before bed. Seems to be becoming my routine while watching MASH before bed. Pilates and MASH do you think they go together. Have fun at your gym. love marie

Marie, I think it is great that you are combining a tv show you love with exercise!!!! Lori
