Well, howdy everyone!
Jane, I hate traffic. Hate it soooooo much! I don't do anything between 7 and 9 in the morning and 4:30-6 in the evening because nothing wastes time like sitting in rush hour. I was taking DS to taekwondo practice last week and there was a back up on the highway because a light at one of the exchanges was out - I was ready to scream at the top of my lungs and bang my head on the stearing wheel... patience truly isn't one of my virtues. ;] I absolutely love the sound of your workout for today! I will give it a go on Sunday morning - to get rid of whatever crap I binged on July 4.
Gayle, carrying anything that isn't in a book bag for 400m sounds tough! Do you do it on a TM or outdoors? It actually sounds like something I would love to do - YOU GUYS HAVE TO STOP GIVING ME IDEAS; I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIT IT ALL IN!!!
19 rounds of manmakers - YOWZA!!! My hat's off to you darlin'! Jetskiing can be a good workout? Really??? I knew my heart was pumping, but I thought it was just the adrenaline rush because it was my first time n' all
Laura, I don't mean to be a pest, but what did I miss about blood testing? Is everything okay? Sorry if I am asking you to repeat yourself.
I hope that everything comes back fine and dandy.
Rhonda, that Misery Goddess can kiss my big white butt. Kill her with Advil, Midol, whatever. I like a hot cup of tea with some honey and cuddle time after a nice jog. You know what's crazy? I haven't had a drop of milk in 6 years and have been almost (except for the occaisional pizza) completely dairy free for - I forget how long, but it's been a while - and I haven't had one teeny tiny cramp and I noticed my appetite isn't as crazy around TTOM, isn't that interesting? I still get tired and mean, but no cramps.
Deanie, right now I am just doing SIM two days a week: Monday and Thursday and Tuesday and Friday I am doing either Providence or Newport. When school starts again I will go back to 4 days a week; I just wanted to change it up for summer, and I keep seeing WOD's that I want to do. ;] For your workout, Cindy is looking really good to me for some reason. I youtubed it and look what I found!:

Today I did Newport - goodness I love this workout! Instead of the matrix/planks (which I HATE!) I did a series of spiders and pushups. I didn't count how many TGUs or snatches I did at the end, but I used a 20#kb for the TGUs which still killed me by the end, and I used both 20 and 25# for the snatches. It felt pretty good!
I turned off Anthony and snatched to "Thunderstruck", one of the ultimate kick butt songs for kbing I think. I also took the kids to the park and we went semi-hiking. That was fun. It is kinda chilly here today - 70ish. This is the weirdest summer! I am not joking - by this time it is usually suffocating with the humidy and upper 80-90 degrees and no breeze, but this summer has felt more like spring... but you will NOT hear me complaining!
Tomorrow I am planning to go for a jog with my doggie, Lucy. She is ill behaved around other dogs - all she wants to do is play - but at least she has some stamina. My other dog, the Golden Retriever, is pooped by the time we hit the 1 mile marker. She is so fat and lazy, but golly I love her!
Have a great day ladies!
Missy
