Nice job, gettting a workout in at your hotel!

That is awesome! You should be so proud of yourself!

Thanks. The exercise seems easier when I travel because I wake up earlier than my family. Of course the food choices suffer!

30 minutes at curves today. Feel like I'm getting a cold so did not jog. So 335/1000.

disneymom2one · 10-09-2012, 12:59 PM

Today:
54 minute run
70 minute morning walk
35 minute afternoon walk

Our special olympics training session was kind of abbreviated tonight since it is getting dark earlier. My 40 minutes brings me to 550.

NYUBwayBaby · 10-11-2012, 12:06 AM

Alrighty! October is not really a good month so far for exercise.
I did 66 minutes last Wednesday (jogging, row machine) and 41 earlier today. So... with what I've already posted, that's 149/2000.

I've got a personal training session and a few miles tomorrow. Sooo... I'll catch up!

ToTLaugher · 10-11-2012, 07:10 AM

I did 30 minutes on the treadmill yesterday.

90/450

Hi all... better late than never in joining in for October.

First, I'm really sorry about the fall off at the end of September. The last few weeks have been really tough ones with an unexpected change in my DW's employment status and scrambling to make sure she and our DDs were covered by my insurance, planning for the way forward with less income, etc.

I HAVE been running and exercising (really needed the stress relief of exercise and I am SO grateful to have made physical activity a part of my life this year just for that benefit)... but haven't been online nearly as much.

The good news is that it looks like DW has secured a contract for work for the next few months... the start of her career as an independent consultant.

Anyway... I'm back and planting the stake in the ground with 1600 minutes for this month again.

So far this month, here is my exercise log:

10/2: 45 minutes of taekwondo class
10/3: 61 minutes of running (5.4 miles)
10/4: 48 minutes of running (4.2 miles)
10/4: 45 minutes of taekwondo class
10/6: 81 minutes of running (7.0 miles)
10/9: 48 minutes of running (4.2 miles)
10/9: 45 minutes of taekwondo class
10/10: 69 minutes of running (6.25 miles)
10/10: 15 minutes of taekwondo practice at home
10/11: 48 minutes of running (4.2 miles)

Total for month to date: 505/1600

Special thanks to keenercam for taking hosting duties back over... It was just adding to stress these last few weeks to have to handle hosting as well.

Great work everyone!
