I'm back, sorry I haven't checked in. We went on vacation last week so thats why I have been mia.
Vacation was awesome! We went to Mackinac Island in upper Michigan and wow, what a beautiful place that is. We were there Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and drove home on Friday. Weather could not have been better. We were kicking ourselves that we didn't stay one more day. We definitely could have. But none-the-less, we had a great time. We seen two fabulous sunsets. Wish I was still there.
Thursday we took a hike on our own throughout the entire island. The island is 8 miles around. We figured we walked that and then some. Lots of steep hills, steps, and paths. Very fun. I couldn't walk the next day. Driving home was brutal, every time we stopped somewhere I would hobble out of the car and it took several steps for my muscles to start working.
I felt very old that day.
My upper back/shoulder area is about 95% better. I still didn't want to chance lifting this week so I'm taking yet another week off from that. I did get up early and ran on my treadmill. All we did was eat this week and I really needed to get my body moving again.
This morning I did Cardio Coach #7 but only did Challenge 1 which was 21 minutes long. Did fine with it. Didn't want to chance irritating my upper back/shoulder area. It's getting irritated sitting here at my desk again. WTH? It has been fine since Wednesday.
