Ok, I have me some java so I'm ready for personals...
Christine: The vaseline trick was a good idea to get the handles on the bands. I'll have to remember that one! Glad you liked Total Body+. I like all of the new work outs. They are tough even though they are short. The original system is awesome but I prefer slightly shorter work outs especially when ya still gotta do 20 minutes of ab work as well!}(
Awake the Body is the subtitle. The true title is "Ho'Ala ke Kino". If you click on my link and click on Tony's work outs you should find it towards the bottom some where. I believe it's $9.95.
Posh: Sorry you have been obnoxiously busy lately. I don't get like that often but when I do, OMG do I turn into one serious witch! LOL I HATE feeling overwhelmed and that's what happens when I don't have enough down/free time.
Cathy: Hope you enjoy that pedi! You deserve it! Good luck with your exam this weekend!!!
Gloria: Seems crazy busy days come with the territory when being a teacher. I always thought they had it easy...shows ya what I know! LOL
Kath: Love the compliment on your arms! That's so nice to hear once in a while, isn't it?
Shelly: So let us know when you are settled in your new pad! A visit will have to be arranged...only if you don't mind, ofcourse.
The TM story is this....I was chugging along just fine. As you know I rely on the TM for most of my running. I trained for my 10 miler on it going 8 miles at what, for me, were pretty high speeds. No issues at all. Well maybe a couple weeks before my HM I suddenly fell apart and have no idea why. I can still run outside with absolutely no problem as I ran my half just fine but all of the sudden I feel out of control very quickly on the TM. I am not feeling dizzy at all. I just feel like my feet won't keep up with the TM at times and the faster I try to run the worse it is. It's not predictable either. Every time I get on the TM it changes. Sometimes it's better and sometimes it's worse. I tried to run inclines at 5.5 and couldn't do it the other day yet last week I was able to do that exact thing! It's very odd and scarey and frustrating. There was no warning and there is no reasonable explanation for it. I am extremely frustrated right now but am going to keep going back and trying. It's got to be some flukey thing that will eventually right itself I would think....My goodness I HOPE SO!!!
Wendi: No worries about the lack of personals. You are a busy cheetah. Hope you were able to make your dinner plans with DSO tonight! :9 So if ya can't make it for the George Sheehan Classic, we'll have to pick another race to do together! Want to train for the 18 miler in October!? :7
Carole: Glad you got out of work early today. How was L&B? I think DH fell off the X wagon. He hasn't done a work out in many days...Oh well. He tried! LOL
Jackie: Isn't Abs and Core more difficult then it looks!? Especially when you are already tired from the work out prior. }( I"m gonna keep trying to resolve the TM issues simply by not giving up. I will slowly increase my speed every work out and see if I can handle it. Keep your fingers and toes crossed for me that I am back to normal soon!!!
K, looks like I'm all caught up!
BBL!
