Trainer session

Last night I worked with Heather, and we concentrated on my back and biceps, since my legs were still a little sore. Also did 7 minutes of cardio on the treadmill. Trying to simulate walking more.

Hot Tub

Last night I wnt to the Fitness Center, but pampered myself in the pool and hot tub instead of working out. I was very sore, but am feeling much better today. Tonight, it's back to working out.

The Cary Road Race!

Here are pictures of George and me at the beginning of the Cary Road Race on Saturday, April 8! I've been working toward this for so long, that Race Day was a little bittersweet. George and I got there early, so we had a chance to walk around a little, chat with some other racers, and watch some of the 10K, which started earlier.

The race, itself, was challenging for me, and I wish I could've been more ready. I'm glad I did it, though! Some of the other racers were very encouraging, too. I like the camraderie.

Now I'm looking forward to my next race!

Tomorrow's the day!

The Cary Road Race is tomorrow! Yippee! Unfortuately, there about an 80% chance of rain tomorrow. Ick! I'm going anyway.

Strength Training

Last night I had a strength training session with Heather, did upper body, so I'm a bit sore today. Didn't do any cardio afterwards, as it was getting toward 8:00 and I hadn't had supper yet. Had to rush home from work as it was and rush to the gym. Lots of rushing these days. Tonight I have one meeting, tomorrow night I have two. Getting harder these days to find time to exercise, clean house, shop for groceries or anything else, and to just relax.

Back on the elliptical

Did 30 minutes on the elliptical last night, felt great to get back on it for a good stretch! :-) I can't work out tonight (another meeting), but have another personal trainer appointment tomorrow night.

Had an hour-long massage on Saturday, thanks to Mom. It felt wonderful!
