Ran 5 on the treadmill today.  Was a nice morning.  I felt really good.  Kept my pace between 9:00 and 10:00 min miles.  Totally forgot about boot camp class this morning and missed it :(

Went to Boot Camp this morning.  Push-ups are my biggest challenge.  I'm still doing girly ones on my knees.  I really want to be able to do a real pushup one day.

Spinning!  Had sub today because Mark is having a tear in his knee fixed.  Hope he recovers quickly.

Spent yesterday snowed in with my grandbaby.  Lots of fun and snuggling.  Got my days mixed up and thought that today was bootcamp at 6am, but really it was spinning at 5:30am.  Got there at 5:45 expecting to spin for 1/2 hour then treadmill, but the instructor was on the treadmill and said no one showed up at 5:30.  She said she would have taught the class for me, I thought that was nice.  

Ran 5 on the treadmill, felt good to get my running legs going again :)

Went to the gym today.  Did spinning class, then a 5 mile run.  I felt really good today.  I'm thinking I should have birthday cake for breakfast more often :)

Five on the treadmill.  Seemed kind of easy this morning, which is rare for me.  I'm thinking it could be the birthday cake I had for breakfast again.  I may have stumbled onto something good :)

spinning again.  During class I started wondering why I keep coming to this same class over and over again.  I decided its the music.  I really enjoy starting my day with some classic rock and some current pop.  Makes me feel kind of young and free.  I also seem to watch my sweat drops.  If I don't have any, I consider the class a bust.  If I have lots, I consider it a great class.
