TGIF!! Alisha ~ We are still in the 90's too but at least the heat index since in the 100's. I ran 3.5 miles on Wednesday and last night I did a rope slam workout mixed with some other exercises. Today is a rest day and tomorrow is a 5K race. I have not done a race since June. I'm excited.

I have the Century Versys Fight Simulator. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EUXR59M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I love it. The base is already filled so you don't have to fill it with sand or water. It comes in 2 pieces and you just zip them together.

Happy September! I'm sorry I was away for so long. I was on vacation and them came back for a couple of days and had to deal with a Hurricane. We made out great and were very lucky. I had no power outage. I only had my phone/cable/internet knocked out for a couple of days. I woke up...

I am on countdown to vacation. Four more work days to go. We leave on Saturday. I am looking forward to some rest and relaxation. My hip is much better. I continue to stretch it every night. My sister and I just sign up for our first 25K. It's a trail race in January. We are very...

Hi! My hip is better. It hurts a bit but I can run without it hampering me. I am still stretching it every night. I am working out and just got myself a new punching bag which I always wanted. My company gives us an allowance to buy equipment, do races and sign up for gym memberships so it...

I'm here. Work has been crazy busy and I've been tired at nights. I have been working out. I ran 3.5 miles last night. It was 94 degrees with a heat index of 105. It was slow going with some walks in between but we got it done. I am working out tonight but don't have the workout yet. It...

My toe is much better but my hip that bothered me before my banged my toe and went away has come back. Maybe I need to bash it again. Ran last night but it was hot and my hip hurt. I've been stretching but when I tried to foam roll last night.....YIKES! I will try again tonight. Alisha ~ I...

Happy Hump Day! I worked out Saturday and Sunday. Sunday I ran 7 miles and my toe did not bother me until around mile 4. It bothered me the rest of the day but felt better on Monday. I guess that's the way it's going to be for a while which is fine with me. It's getting better! Monday I...

TGIF!! Tricia ~ I'm so sorry to hear about Milo. It was good of you to put him down so he did not have to suffer. {{{{HUGS}}}}. I did not do anything last weekend. I worked out all 3 days but took it easy otherwise. The fireworks were so loud on 4th of July. We are only about 3 miles...

I'm here. Last week was a busy week at work. I ran on Wednesday even though my toe hurt me. Then I took Thursday and Friday off and did a 5K trail race on Saturday. My toe felt really good. The race was hard because it's been dry here and the course was very sandy so it was tough. I did my...

Happy Monday! I am tired today even though I had a lazy weekend. I did run a 5 mile race on Saturday but it was it my hometown so I could sleep in until 6:15. It was the 2nd annual but so well run and organized (unlike the previous week). They had great volunteers. Unfortunately my running...

I have been caregiving for the last 8 years in various ways for family members. I'm at up 5am and I don't get home to 6pm. I don't have any kids but my days are full. What works for me is having people to workout with. I regularly workout with my sisters and it helps to have people around to...

Alisha ~ Yippee for your bad ass immune system!! You got this!! Great job on the workout!! My toe is getting better but not as fast as I would like. I did run the 10K on Saturday morning. It hurt less than the last time I ran. The pain was still there but it was minimal. I think the heat...

My toe got better on Monday so I think it was the storm. It's feeling much better. I just have a twinge or two every once in a while. I'm suppose to go running tonight but I'm going to do something else instead. I want to do the 10K race on Saturday so I'm saving it until then. I hope all...

My sister was laid off at the end of February and has been looking for a job ever since. We live in a small town so we have to go out of state (30 minutes away) to get a job. She has called every agency in the area and has sent out close to 40 resumes maybe more. She has been on 3 interviews...

Rainy days and Mondays...it's rainy today and it's Monday....so.... Alisha ~ I'm glad you finally heard from the doctor and that it isn't all in your head. I'm sorry it has to be about losing weight and all that stuff. Wait until you hit menopause. It's sounds like the same thing. Good job...

Summer has arrived here too but you have us beat. It's in the 90's here already. My baby toe made it through the 8K race but it hurt the entire way. I'm not sure how I ran it but I did. I was over 3 minutes slower than last year but took 3rd in my age group. I went home and iced my toe...

Alisha ~ I hope you hear some news soon. It's still cool in the mornings here but it's been in the 90's in the afternoon. At least it's breezy and the humidity is low. I have been nursing a sore baby toe and foot since Tuesday night. My sister and I were playing around (sounds like we're 10...

I happened to read both articles and but I will comment on the second article. I wasn't really surprised about what I read. I only saw bits and pieces of the show over the years and I didn't even know it was still on but to me the show was nothing more than humiliating overweight people. They...

Happy Monday! I have a short week as I will be off on Friday and will not go back to work until June 1. Yippee!! This weekend was busy. I was up at 6:15 to make a birthday cake for my sister, did a workout and finished the cake and got to mom's house at noon for the celebration. I was there...
