1 Week in, 11 to Go

The 1^st week didn’t go according to schedule but we are hoping the 2nd week will.  However, with Thanksgiving ahead we can’t make any promises.  (For your reference BarmBarm means a No Go.) 

Sunday, Sept 28^th - Zumba – check for both Twins

Monday, Sept 29^th – Video 1 – check for both Twins

Tuesday, Sept 30^th – Video 2 – check for both Twins

Wednesday, Oct 1^st – 5k run – Check for Twin 2.  As soon as she walked in the door after work she immediately put on her running clothes and walked out the front door before she even realized what she was doing, which is just what needed to be done.  If she had of stopped for a second the running would not have gotten done.  First run after the 1/2.  It felt short and sweet.  Combination of trail and road.  After running a few months with a water belt it was nice going without one although it was a little humid and a little driplet of water would have been nice.

BarmBarm for Twin 1 - Here is her excuse –  cooked supper as soon as she got home to have ready when puppy class was over as Wednesday’s are puppy class.  Got home and looked for her supper but her hubby ate it all.  She got tired and cranky and still had to make lunches for the next day, etc. so had Zoodles for supper and didn’t feel like working out after that.

Thursday, Oct 2^nd – Video 1 – Check for Twin 1 at 5 a.m as she was having company that night so got it over with early,  BarmBarm for Twin 2 as she had a retirement party after work and didn’t get home until 11:30 p.m and didn’t feel like working out.

Friday, Oct 3^rd – Video 2 – BarmBarm for both. No excuse other then its Friday.  This is our toughest day to get anything going exercise wise.

Saturday, Oct 4^th – 5k run – BarmBarm for both, Twin 1 took the dogs to Point Pleasant for an hour and then we both had our eyebrow appointment and went to our friends that night for a BBQ and we just didn’t get a run in.  The weather was crappy and we had enough of running in crappy weather.  We're still not over it.

So again, 3 for 7.  Not as well as we had hoped but we will try harder this week.  Wish us luck.

Sunday morning we took Pearl and Onyx to Long Lake and walked a trail we’ve never done before.  It is so pretty in the woods this time of year with all the leaves changing to orange, yellow and red. Most are on the ground now but pretty none the less.  

Here are a few pictures from our walk.

At the beginning all raring to go.

At the end.  Pearl was tired.  She needed a break every 5 minutes.
