HAPPY ST. PADDY'S DAY TO ALL!

Sorry for skipping out today on the CP walk. I have a head cold and think my video workout is enough for me today! I hope everyone plans on enjoying St.Paddy's day in your own way!

Cloie, I'm w. you- I am sore. Mine is in my back and hip flexors. Sounds like your pecs hurt! Ain't it great!lol

Pam- enjoy your downtown walk. It will feel great in this weather.

Can't wait to hear about your workout last night Teresa. And Jen- 20 mile back up stinks but it's better than a 20 mile walk- ha ha!

Cheers to all!

  9. Thanks, Cloie! I know I didn't burn as many calories as it said... digging the the mulch was REALLY easy. But... doing something is doing something.

    Hoping it doesn't rain tomorrow. Want to do something outside again. Today we went to C'ville for a baseball game. Didn't do a lot of walking, but did some & we were outside in the fresh air.

  10. Okay, so after Cloie posted a link for how many calories are burned gardening, I thought it would be fun to check out a few more things.

    A few weeks ago, when I was complaining about not being able to go outside to exercise, a friend suggested sex. Well... according to this website, sex with "active effort" burns 102 calories/hour. http://caloriecount.about.com/calories-burned-sexual-activity-active-a368

    And... attending church with "active effort" (singing in church, attending a ceremony, standing, active participation) burns 136 calories per hour. http://caloriecount.about.com/calories-burned-standing-a574

    Thought that was pretty funny!

  12. This weekend I did my first outdoor runs since the Fall, all I can say is WOW..they sucked :) I forgot how different running outside is from a treadmill. I did two miles fairly easily, but I don't think my shins will let me go up for another week or so. This week I hope to be able to: Rest today, Run on the treadmill Tuesday, Run outside on Wednesday, Rest Thursday (Middle School orientation..ugh!!), Run outside Friday and Sat (at the beach!!) and then Sunday we will be walking around Busch Gardens all day. That's my plan...and I'm sticking to it!

    I have to say I love reading this blog, it keeps me motivated. Thanks again guys!!!

  13. @Cloie - I was laughing pretty hard about church burning more calories than sex. I think that should be part of sex ed programs!!!
