Wha'd up?

Here is a rundown of our week.

Wednesday, March 1, 2017
As stated last Wednesday we weighed and measured ourselves and didn’t see too many improvements.  After our leg workout we started our running again.  This was a cold, windy, foggy run for 1k.





Twin 1 got some new sneakers for this.

Thursday, March 2, 2017
Our workouts consisted of mostly upper body and then we had Hanging Leg Raises at the very end.  We had fun with this.


Friday, March 3, 2017

Weights at Twin 2's.  We are working out 5 days a week now so alternate between houses each day.


Saturday, March 4, 2017

We thought spring was here after last week

 And then this happened Saturday morning with freezing temperatures since.

We got out for our 2nd 1k of the week in -20 degree windchill.  This is why we don't train for any races in the winter.  It's not fun.

Sunday, March 5, 2017

Twin 1 dog sat Pearl's little sister Saturday night for a trial run for a week in April and the temps were again freezing but the pups didn’t seem to mind at all

 Monday, March 6, 2017

It was another cold one today.  Twin 2 was off work so she ended up running 2k on the treadmill and Twin 1 did her run at Ashburn with the dogs.


Tuesday, March 7, 2017

Today called for a rest day but we each got on the stationary bike.  Twin 1 for 5k and Twin 2 for 6k.

Goals

Month 1 done of our new workout program.  We did not lose a thing except half inch on Twin 2's thigh.  We wont give up!

We added running into the mix last night.  3 days a week and go up by a km each week or two.  Last night we did 1km.

This month is all about eating right, adding in running and keeping on with our weights.

Wha'd up?


We had lots of snow the past week.  It basically started Sunday night and finally all ended on Friday afternoon.
But before that here is the sunrise on Feb 11, it was a cold but great day.
 
It was also Valentines and Starbucks of course got into the spirit.
 

On Wednesday Aunt Bib and Twin 1 got out for a “walk” with the dogs.  We say “walk” lightly as it was more of a trudge in the snow as you can see below

 

There was a lot of this keeping things warm and drying them off
 

In the midst of it all we still kept up with our weight workouts.  We actually find them fun. We are starting Week 4 this evening.  We switch it up and each others houses.


 
After the "storm week" it was a beautiful day at Point Pleasant this past weekend.  The whole weekend was nice and almost "spring like" at times.  And a Happy Birthday shout out to our bro-in-law who is now the big 37!
 

And this is poor Pearl waiting to come down stairs after supper as Twin 1 feeds the dogs separately and Onyx was still eating.

Wha'd up?


It’s been a few weeks since we caught up with you and here is what’s been going on in our exciting lives.

Saturday, January 28, 2017  - Twin 1’s doggies tear stuff apart and she keeps taking the toys away saying she will sew them up.  A duck that Aunt Bib gave Onyx for her birthday last May finally got sewn up and she loves it!  She watched her sew it up and then played with it and slept with it on the couch.  All the items that were sewed up are still intact and Twin 1 has since found two more that require surgery.

Thursday, February 2, 2017 – It was a beauty of a night and Twin 1 and Aunt Bib went to Ashburn with the dogs (where they go most nights) in the winter.


Friday, February 3, 2017 – We have started a new workout training plan (which we will tell you about at a later date) and Friday we did it at Twin 2’s house and little Gilly got involved.

Saturday, February 4, 2017 – The was a COLD morning but Twin 1 took the pups to Point Pleasant for their walk and it was gorgeous.

SUPERBOWL SUNDAY, February 5, 2017 – We got our workout done Sunday morning so we can prepare for Superbowl.  This is how Onyx and Twin 1 spent the afternoon until it was time to go.

And all that Christmas chocolate in the freezer was for this event.

We went to Twin 2’s for the Superbowl.  The majority were cheering for the Atlanta Falcons.  As I’m sure you heard by now they lost.  Congrats to New England for pulling off another win.  Before the game started we played our own games which was quite entertaining.


That’s all for now Folks and thanks for staying tuned.

Tip Tuesday


“You have to treat running like anything else: You’re not just gonna start and be great. Find your pace. Find what works for you. … And find the right pair of shoes.”

Wha'd up?

Not too much going on in recent days except:

Our friend turned 60 on Jan 7 but with everything going on around that time we didn't do anything for him so we were all invited over to Twin 2's this past Saturday for some breakfast burritos and dessert.



Also the Superbowl teams have been decided and it should be a good matchup!  Our bets are on Atlanta!
