Cathlete
Hi 40s girls. Getting the new week started. I finally got my legs back and my toes aren't hurting as much (from the climb down). Saturday I started BM2 cardio timesaver, basically it was 2 run throughs of all the combos put together and then the power intervals, I stopped at the power intervals, I just didn't have a full tank of gas. Sunday I then did GS BSB, feeling a bit back to my old self only to punish myself on Wed again. My BFF got all our plans worked out, so we will head out Tuesday morning and shop in Breckenridge and then hike Quandary Peak on Wed, it seems like the hike will be close to what I just did.

Jody, I just now accepted your friend request on FB, I thought I had accepted it already. Didn't want you to think I was ignoring you!

Ronne, you may have to do some extraordinary thing to get your Cathlete status back :)

Roxie, more heat for you? Hot weekend here.

Mary, Hopefully all quiet on the home front.

Murphy, are you still celebrating your birthday? I like to celebrate for a week before and after. So my next 14er is in celebration of my birthday on the 14th :)

Tomorrow we move DS19 into his apartment for college, oh joy, I'll have to do more than usual since the roomies aren't providing much common stuff nor is there any girl in the picture to help with kitchen setup.
 
Good Afternoon,

I feel like a slug I didn't workout Fri. because I came home with a headache and my knee was bothering me and then I didn't get up early enough Sat. to workout before I left for Nebraska. Last night my knee really bothered me so I didn't sleep well took a knap this afternoon, and I plan on doing SM after supper.

Lisa-Saturday was really hot but we have had storms pass us today so its keeping the heat in check. I did lay out in my pool this morning before the first storm went by.
 
Hi ladies

Lisa - good luck with the move! :confused: I don't blame you for not finishing that premix - it's really tough.

Roxie - hey, you got to lie by the pool!!

Got two workouts in over the weekend: did a SloMo full body premix on Sat and CTX All Step (cardio only) and a Stretch Max segment yesterday. Probably won't manage anything today as I'm out all day with DD and friends. Finally finished work and can now concentrate on the holiday!!
 
Hi girls! I did a post last night and it's nowhere to be found!? Anyway, this am did KCM plyo, did TM and STS TB upper body, sat., did TM and TJ legs. Today we are going hiking with friends. Not 14 miles! Lisa, I hate moving! Ronne, have a great vacation! Lots of wine and chocolate! Roxie, are you cooling down? Murphy, feeling better? Shereta, any problems from your fall? Jody, how did the dance class go? Well, need to get moving! Mary
 
Good Morning,

I did Shape Abs this morning and tonite will be GS Chest & Back and some kind of cardio. I have a family reunion Sept 10th so I need to watch my diet and make sure I don't miss any workouts.

Ronne-I laid in the pool its a little kiddie pool DH bought me.

Mary-much cooler here today but its raining off and on.
 
I have HS reunion this weekend, not sure if I am going. Could someone decide for me? I just don't feel like doing anything.

I had great time w/ all my classes yesterday. Troupe/choreography, Fun fun. Advanced/technique, Fun. Sub for Gypsy was very fun even tho I couldn't remember some of choreography w/o looking at paperwork. They just love to dance and it was fun to hash out complicated sections. Great songs, too.

Pouring outside, looks like I am in a carwash.

Lisa, thanks for friending me. : )

Hopefully be back later to report wonderful accomplishments in the workout dept.

Completed 4DS Legs and core from KB.

Good Evening,

Tonite I did GS Chest, Back and a 2 mile walk. It has cooled off enough that I could take the dog for a walk hoping to go for a bike ride with DH tomarrow night.
 
Ugh what a day, just finally got done moving DS19 and it's 8:30 and we started at 8am. It was soooooo hot too and his apartment doesn't have A/C. I did do MMA Boxing, I still feel in my calves from my hike. Now to rest tonight, and get going at 9am with my friend, so I'll be gone for the next 2 days, wish us luck that we get to the top of this next 14er.

Mary, how far was your hike?

Jody, my 30th HS reunion is next year, I"m not going, I'm on the FB group page for it and it reminds me of why I don't want to see these people again. Besides the fact I can't remember most of them. I graduated with 1100 in my class.

Roxie, GS really gave me some DOMS this last time.

Ronne, We'll let you be a Cathlete again ;)
 
I forgot to add,today was so tough and hot I"m sitting here drinking a beer!

Roxie, good luck on the weight loss, mine has stalled guess I'm eating too much because of all the activity(hiking) I'm doing, but gosh I'm hungry!
 
Hi all

Well, I guess Lisa is halfway up a mountain by now!!

Jody - the dance classes sound fun!

Mary - hope you enjoyed your hike!

Roxie - LOL at the pic of you sitting in a kids pool!

Did Split UB today. Short and sweet. Off to town to do last minute hols shopping.
 
Morning girls! Hike was nice, the kids had fun. Not sure what w/o I will do today, my twins turned 13 today! How did that happen? Anyway, we are going on a picnic and they want to go to Olive Garden for dinner. Lisa, hope you are having fun! Ronne, when do you leave? I bet you are so excited! Roxie, what are you up to? Murphy, you out there? Shereta, are you there? Jody, what torture do you have in store? DH and DS are doing a 5k tomorrow, DH is doing a duelathlon on Lisa's b-day. He has been training like a dog! Well, need to go do something! Talk to you tomorrow! Mary
 
Good Morning,

Tonite for me is suppose to be Low Max but hoping DH and I go for a bike ride since the temps are suppose to be decent. I have DOMs in my back from last nights workout.

Ronne-I even have and air mattress that I lay on when in the kids pool.

Mary-its amazing how fast I kids grow up my oldest DD turns 26 Saturday.

Lisa-enjoy your hike.
 
Good Evening,

DH and I went for a 7 mile bike ride loving the cooler temps suppose to stay in the 80's the rest of the week.
 
Hi everyone. Today I did some ab work. It was quick, I was short on time and wanted to say that I did something. I am feeling better, now I am just lazy!

Ronne (?) - was that SloMo from Amy Bento? I like that one. I think I have one other of her but I just cannot get into her. Don't know why.

Mary - H b'day to the twins.

Lisa - having fun?

Jody - I was thinking you should go to the reunion but then, I have never been to one of mine, something always came up. ???

Hi to everyone.

Murphy
 
Ronne, what holiday?

Mary, how was birthday dinner? My two dtrs BFFs are 16 yo twins, they have baby twin bro/sis too who are 2. : o DH and DS enjoy the 5K?

Roxie, glad you got your ride in w/ DH. I thought of you yesterday when I went out on back patio and just soaked up some hot steamy south FL sunshine.

I prob won't go to reunion. School and work start again in about 10 days and I need to get some stuff done before things get super crazy. Also, if I were to spend a weekend and a couple of hundred dollars, I'd rather go camping or tubing, take kids to Universal or Busch, etc. It would definitely be fun to go, but there'd prob be too much excess. And I'm with Lisa, too, I wasn't close to that many of the kids when I was in school. Do I really need to forge relationships now?

Anyway....yesterday I did 4DS Upper Body premix. Ugh, 1 whole hour of upper body, did someone just call it short and sweet? Well, I did it yesterday and did 2 very short HIIT w/o. A 6 min 20/15 10 cycle run and a 4 min bodyrock 20/10 power turning squat burpee thingy.

Today I plan on something fun w/ no dread factor for me at all. Maybe LIS or HIS or one of the steps from CTX I liked or LIC cardio premix. woo hoo! oh and dance tonight. : )
 
Good Morning,

Tonite for me is GS biceps, 4ds LIS abs and some kind of cardio want to go for another bike ride but it is raining off and on here.

Jody-our high for today is only suppose to be 77 so I think the heat wave has broken. Sounds like you have some busy times coming up.

Murhpy-short is better then nothing.
 
Roxie - only 77 today? With all those 100+ days you might need a sweater for today. A cold front coming in... :)
 
Hi girls! Did Jari R&C, just mixing things up! Murphy, glad to see you back! Roxie, 75 here! Turned off the air, my feet are chilly! Lisa, how was the hike? Did you do the whole thing again? Jody, I have never been to any of my reunions, everyone I want to talk to, I talk to! Dinner was nice, the kids enjoyed themselves. The 5k is tonite. Have a good day! Ronne, when do you leave? Mary
 
Roxie - only 77 today? With all those 100+ days you might need a sweater for today. A cold front coming in... :)

Murphy-after today its suppose to stay in the 80's for the rest of the week not real sure what is going on this is usually our hottest month.
