Pentagenarians & Beyond: October 26, 2025

we plan our drive ahead. get things loaded the night before. we have food for the drive made and ready. Im not a fast food person, that stuff is awful! you're right, easy to get dehydrated. i drink a lot of water while we drive but i time it so pee stops work for us. we know where they are and which close for winter. we do gas and pee stops. thats it . we know where the tough spots are and how long the drive should take, alternate routes . there arent many choices. MT and Idaho have excellent road condition and accident apps so i can keep track of that. WA is not as good. the WA app stinks.
How long do you drive in a stretch? do you get the after drive jitters where you are jumpy and cant sleep? its a little like getting off a boat after a long day and feeling unsteady.

Diane sue i was surprised about CVS and Walgreens not listed. every pharmacy inside agrocery store was listed. costco too. about 6 places within 5 miles of our house. we toss all the outdated things in a container and do it every few years. its time for me to do it too.
 
Today I did KCM’s Cardio Kickbox, no weights. It was 21 minutes, 165 calories burned, average heart rate 140, and maximum heart rate 172. Then I did STS 2.0 Chair Yoga for an additional 21 minutes.

Valerie, I’m glad that the new PT is working out well. You should feel like a serious athlete, because you are!!

Diane Sue, great job with CDorner Seated or Standing Arms, and Jessica Valant Scoliosis and Kyphosis workouts.

Cathy, great job with Live Met-Con Mash-Up. It’s good that you don’t mind such long drives. I hate car trips that are longer than 3 hours!

Waving hello to Judy.
 
Wednesday I did 45 minutes of Peloton Full Body Strength and a 30-minute Peloton Yin Yoga class. Yesterday I did a 30-minute walk on the walking pad and today I did a 45-minute Peloton Power Zone class.

Valerie-Great job with the park walk, therapy work, and riding. I agree with Carolyn, you are a serious athlete!

Carolyn-Great job with JS HiiT Walk, LMR Functional Lower Body, KCM’s Cardio Kickbox, no weights and STS 2.0 Chair Yoga. I’m with you on the car trips. I don’t like longer drives.

Diane Sue-Great job with CDorner Thanksgiving basic step workout, Seated or Standing Arms and Jessica Valant Scoliosis and Kyphosis workouts. That’s good that you got the downloads. I wouldn't want to have to watch advertisements either.

Cathy-Great job with Live Met-Con Mash Up. That’s really good that you don’t mind long drives.
