11/5 Report

Day 2.  Ugh.  This is when I remember that the second day after working out is when I stop feeling invincible.  I ache.  And I feel old.  And I'm tired, BUT I put the baby in bed and then dragged my rear end over to Planet Fitness and ran and walked on the treadmill (Mom stayed with the kids).  I'll get in some classes eventually to show me how to work the weight equipment, so, for now I'll just do whatever I do...trying not to cause foot fractures and shin splints.

Today, I found it quite satisfying to walk at 3.5 mph for 25 calories and run at 5.0 mph for 50 calories.  I'm sure some people measure distance or time, but whatever.  This worked for me today once I figured it out, haha.  I watched about 35 minutes of Bones.


Once I got off the treadmill, I walked around and looked at the machines and decided to wait to figure those out.  Really, I'm a group exerciser...I hate exercising alone (outside of cardio machines).  Hopefully, SH will join me soon.

One thing I did try tonight was the HydroMassage bed.  Now, that was weird.  And strangely relaxing.  Strangely.

Podcast listened to while on the HydroMassage bed:
