Day 12...

No, I haven't broken my goal to work out for 30 minutes a day yet! I guess I should've been more specific about my workouts lol! I just haven't had a chance to blog about them! I did that "Killer Legs and Butt" workout again yesterday, and as much as it sucks... I really should do it every other day. Boy am I sore! Today I only did about 10 minutes of workout before getting ready so I will have some serious make up to do tonight! I may look and see when the step classes are at Bally's - those were always really good! Although I like the Littleton gym better than the one closest to me know, but I think I will try to go anyway! Fun fun... Megan and I are also trying to do stairs - at least 10 flights, down then up, every day. We'll see if we keep that this week. Last week was crazy at work so we only did it once. But today's a new day, right?
Well I better get back to work!

Day 8!

Day 8:

So today was terrible at work. Megan and I pulled an all day cram, trying to get the system ready for revenue close. We ended up not leaving until 6, after we figured out why the system was off over 2.5 million dollars. Awesome. Then I had to come home and clean, well at least put stuff away, because Sawyer, Lucy, and Ty are all coming home tomorrow through Sunday to get haircuts before they head off to Georgia. That, and I'm dog sitting One of Sawyers daughters starting tomorrow also, so I just needed to pick things up. So, from ~6:45 until now, ~9:30, I've been up, cleaning, going up and down the stairs, cleaning my kitchen floor, and a whole bunch of other things I hate doing! Ha! Anyway, I've decided that cleaning for 3 hours could transfer to my 30 minute workout so... That's all she wrote! I'm going to bed now... Early for once!

Good Night!!

Day 7:

Well I started the day with great intensions. I slept in, woke up and packed a gym bag, and went to work, with plans to go to the gym after my Brittany Club meeting. Ha, yeah right. I am just erring home, at 10, and I have a massive headache. So, for my 30 minutes today, I will be stretching and doing yoga poses while watching the news. Boy is my bed calling me, but I'm sticking to it! Good night everyone!

Day 6!

Well today was the first day back at work, so I figured I needed to wake up extra early to get my 30 minutes in! I did a video this morning, "The Firm: Tight Buns & Killer Legs." Yup... it was pretty tough too! But I got my 30 minutes in before 6AM! I will be taking Eve to my trainer, Ben's, after work today, then teaching my dog show class for an hour tonight, so that should count for a little extra! :) And since Eve will not be home for a couple weeks, I guess I will pack my gym bag and start hitting Bally's and maybe Qi Yoga with Harmony! Woo Hoo! What a way to start the new year!
BTW I decided that I'm going to post all of my measurements... as a way to track progress. I don't know if I will get to it tonight, but hopefully by tomorrow!

Day 4 & 5

Well I did my workout on Day 4, I just didn't manage to write about it! I worked my arms with free weights, did jumping jacks, sit ups, side bends with my good old 20 lb kettle ball, and leg lifts. I was still trying to recover, so nothing too strenuous!

Day 5:

Well I finally found a good iPhone app, Endomondo! I decided to clean my bathroom, and my bedroom, which took me over 3 hours. Fun! Good end result and a nice clean bedroom! That and a big black trash bag full of goodwill stuff! Yay! Once it warmed up outside, I decided to test out my new app, and take Eve for a run! It's her first run on a leash in probably a year?!? Needless to say, it was an adventure! Anyway, according to my app, we ran a slow 1.81 miles in about 20 minutes. Iafterwards, I did my usual 300 situps/crunches and side bends. Got my first decent workout in today and Eve was happy too! Although she sure would've liked to have gone faster and further! Next time, Eve, next time :)

Day 3: 362 to go!

Day 3:

So... I went to Blackhawk yesterday, ended up spending most of the time in my room with stomach pains. Lame, I know. So being that I'm not feeling well, I'm less than motivated to work out today. But I must! I was handed a workout while in Blackhawk still. Our room was on floor 20. Add that to a fire alarm, and you get in a good 10 minute workout walking down flight after flight of stairs. Thanks AmeriStar! So I still have to come up with 20 more minutes of something to do. I need to go pick up Eve from my mom's house, so maybe I will walk her later?!? Only time will tell, but I must get in another 20 minutes to hold true to my blog! We will see just how motivated I will get before the new year!

Day 2: 363 to go!

Day 2:

Well I had high hopes for today. While I was laying in bed with my dog Eve, I thought how much she would live to take me for a run. And if you know Eve, that makes perfect sense.... I don't take Eve anywhere, I'm just along for the ride! Anyway, I got up at 7, put on some sweats, let Eve out and gathered my trash, as today is trash day. So I hauled my recycle can, trash can, and full... Dog waste can out to the curb. I was exhausted. Not only was I tired from just taking out the trash, but I burst into a coughing fit. Guess running with Eve was a bit ambitious for someone who's been sick for a week! Guess she will have to wait! So I turned on the news and did sit ups, worked my arms with free weights, did a bunch of leg lifts and side bends. Nothing too exciting, but I still did some sort of exercise for 30 minutes! Hopefully the workouts will be more challenging when I start feeling better! Off to Blackhawk with Brandi... Maybe I'll get in some more exercising... Walking, talking, laughing, lifting those drinks to my mouth ;) Ha! Hopefully I'll expend some energy in that awesome heated swimming pool on the roof of the hotel I keep hearing about! AmeriStar here I come!
