  • Workout

    One of the drawbacks of working with a single person business is that if he oversleeps – well we are all left to sit and wait, which is what happened this morning. One of the ladies actually had to drive to our trainers house to wake him. We need our bootcamp.  So while we were…

  • Work it out.

    A beautiful morning full of sun and that makes for great workout weather. The picture to the left is from my front yard – it’s clematis. What makes this picture really special – Scotty took it this morning and sent it to me and said: have a good day! He’s so darn sweet. Warmup 400m…

  • Great day, great workout!

    What a great workout today. We mix up partners each week and this week’s partner had a ton of will! She pushed through no matter how hard it got. I love working out with people like that – makes me try harder. I am rockin the pull-ups. They are so hard but man, I love…

  • What’s the Fittest City in America?

    What’s the Fittest City in America? | SocialWorkout.com. Where do all the healthy people live? I’s gotta be San Francisco — everyone in the Bay Area is training for a triathlon, right? Or maybe it’Denver where everyone hikes to work or whatever. Nope, turns out it’s…Washington D.C. Apparently, the buttoned-up beltway crowd sweats it out…

  • Back at it again

    Finally a Monday workout outside! It was hot, humid and we all worked up a good sweat. My ankle has been bothering me so I did modify a few exercises. It seems I can put weight on my ankle no problem but when I do any movement that flexes it – that’s the problem. I…

  • Breathe it all in

    It’s been a crazy day. I woke up to a light rain/mist in the air and decided to go for a run. I figured if it’s not raining heavy, it’s probably great weather for one. I ended up doing about 6mi on the trail. There were a few other runners out there with me and…

  • A wonderful morning!

    I went for a run this morning with 2 of my favorite ladies. We met at Partlows on the W&OD Trail and did 4 miles together – I ran .5 mi there and back to meet them.  It certainly makes the time go by faster and the run seem easier when you have good company.…

  • Notable News

    Still a bit under the weather so my initial idea of getting up and going for a run fell to the wayside. I did want to share some interesting news I have come across the past few days: Vitamin D and colorectal cancer focus of new Arizona study U of AZ is my Alma mater…

  • Not feeling so hot

    I don’t feel good today and it really showed in my workout. It was hard to go and hard to finish. The PT station was a killer to me and I really wanted to just go home.  I may take a cue from the way I feel and skip tomorrow – who knows. Warmup 400m…
