Well I guess I have the rest of the week left? 

Today -  45minutes swimming with a kickboard ( and I am so slow and out of shape!!!)

30 minutes this morning on the treadmill 

30 minutes on the stationary bike

Tonight- I am hoping to jog 8 miles in the dark with my headlamp- should be fun except for the cars and traffic :) 

Weds:  

5:00am - Swimming/Stationary Bike/Treadmill

Weds Night  - Yoga 1 hour

Thursday -

5:00am Swimming   10k Turkey Trot  thursday morning

Friday 

Swimming/Stationary Bike / Treadmill 

Saturday

Swimming / Stationary Bike/ Treadmill -   Either a long run 8 miles or maybe I will get o ride my bike 

Sunday:

Swimming/Stationary Bike /Treadmill    Long Run or Bike

at least these are my goals.   I am taking Swim Lessons at the YMCA - It seems to be very slow going, I have always considered myself a good swimmer. Until Now- now I realize I know nothing about swimming and have no endurance. My goal is to swim in a Sprint Triathlon in June 2017 750 meters is the minimum and I think that is a half mile.  I have a very long way to go.  Any tips advice, suggestions on how to improve my swimming and how to improve endurance.  It is funny when I get back in the water to swim I feel like I am as out of shape as I was a year ago when I weighed 337 , I can barely make it down the lane, I stop to breath every few feet. And of course in the rest of the pool people are swimming 3 or 4 or more laps for each lap I make. Swimming in a 25 meter pool and I think I need to make it 15 times without stopping. If you guys dont mind I will try to start posting here every week to stay motivated. Happy Thanksgiving!!

Monday - pushups
Tuesday - running, yoga stretching
Wednesday - pushups
Thursday - running, yoga stretching
Friday - pushups, hopefully a nice walk with my mom!

What exactly are you looking for? Running? Weight lifting? Low-equipment exercises? A simple tracker?
