January Exercise Challenge! - Page 31 - The DIS Discussion Forums

Figment1990 · 01-23-2013, 08:58 PM

45 min run tonight gets me to 695/800.

And I'm happy to say that I've also been keeping with my goal of getting DH to do two days of exercise per week this month. He and I used to work out together in our former non-parenting lives and his took a backseat to my therapy and training in the last four years. I'm easing him in but hoping he will be up for W & D w me this fall.

Aaarghh....the gym fired my trainer and he was AWESOME; all of his clients that I know are upset.

I guess he must not have been selling enough supplements.

I'm really going to miss him plus I hate trying out new trainers, so stressful.

Me! Me! I don't know if I've posted on the thread but I did submit it as a race that I'm doing on the WISH events calendar.

But I will say I'm not 100% in yet. DH and I only get to get away for a few days each year and we are seriously considering doing something different than Disney this year (like a cruise). But chances are we will end up at the W&D, with possibly both of us running AND my sister too! See you at the pre-race party!

I was able to get on the elliptical for 20 minutes and the treadmill for 12 on Sunday (the Y was closing so I had to stop). I was supposed to work out on Monday but swim practice was canceled because of puke in the pool so my DD couldn't swim and I couldn't work out. I did zumba for the first time ever on Wednesday for 45 minutes and liked it. I think I'll do it every Wednesday while my DD swims. The only problem is that we need to leave before the zumba class is over so I don't get a really good cool down. I did some pilates stretches after I was done and I'm not too sore today.

Total so far this week: 77

robinb 463/750

Very much doubt the DH will run it, but I think my running BFF will. Of course, she'll be starting in Corral A!

WISH Events calendar? What's that???

Check out the courage of this woman. My newest hero!!!

Dare I say I think it's official? The Disney website has the W&D Half Marathon Race weekend listed as Nov 8-9, 2013. Yippeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!

Quicklabs · 01-24-2013, 01:37 PM

But it got me "in the pink" at least.
This surgery can't come too soon. Thank goodness that the virus knocked out my appetite and I've still lost my 1.5 this past week. It was nice to be able to change to a 50 lb lost ticker!

300/600

Look on the Events section of the boards (where you found the 2013 W&D thread) and look for something that says, 2013 WISH Calendar and 2014 Marathon Weekend (or something like that). A guy over there keeps the list and you just post when and where you are running and I think he updates the first post (similar to this). It's fun to see the different things people are doing.
