Well, Wednesdays I usually went to the track, but It has been cold, so we are going to the gym. This time, I figured I could walk on the treadmill and have liked the opportunity to walk faster...making myself go faster. It is not easy and very demanding, and it seems more like a power walk. I still like to do walking outside 35 min, but have not been able to manage it 7 days a week as I could have liked. I am averaging 4 times a week if. So today, I ventured again in running a bit! Oh MY! This time I went all the way to 5.5 for 1 minute instead of 5.0 for 2 minutes. I guess the combinations are limitless and I can do whatever feels good or not..should I say. The only real thing, is that I should be pushing myself A LOT MORE than I have been on my free range days, as i call them, when I don't have class. The perfect combo would be Yoga with these days, but on Wed...is at 12:00 and there is not enough time to get Alexei and stay at the gym 2 hours...because the kids club closes at 1...go figure. 24 HOUR FITNESS NOT! That is if you are a mum! They only have slots at 8 to 1 and 4 to 8. Oh well...being the morning person I am, I much rather get it done early than not!...Too many people at night.

Monday again?
Wow...Today I had high hopes to go to Yoga at 8 am...but being a holiday and stuff...I ended up wanting to leave and nothing. I decided to go walking and only did 30 min. I will be excited to do yoga on Mondays. I want to be steady so I can incorporate Yoga every week. It has been a tremendous thing, trying to do poses and figure out how to be okay with being uncomfortable. For sure a learning experience.
I did not do anything on the weekend. Well we walked a lot but in a casual setting. I haven't been keeping up with the 35 min every single day. Need to recommit to it, having been doing 3 days maybe.

I love to walk
I love to walk, and did it again. 4 Miles. My foot still hurts, but it was not as painful today. I talked with my mom for the last mile...that was fun and it made time go fast. She is probably wondering why I am heavy with the breathing....

Walking Wednesday
Today we went walking and did 4 miles and a half. It was pretty good, although it is beastly hot. Yes. Horrible. At least Jorvik was really good and played, and actually walked three laps, which is 3/4 of a mile. Not bad for a little guy. We proceeded then to go and collect bottles. It has been a very tiring day and maybe will catch a swim tonight.
I MUST record, that I am making an attempt to eat really healthy. I SHOULDN'T make attempts. It is like Dr. Laura always says...Don't try, just DO. Trying sets you up for failure. I think I agree with this, but when it comes to me and my issues, I am not being very committed with the eating part of it. Exercise is another story...As I did last year, I went to CURVES for 10 whole months, and only lost 8 pounds. So all in all I AM MOBILE and exercise always, but you wouldn't know it if you saw me. Maybe I need to have the hell beaten out of me to make a difference. At least when I walk I think go faster on and of.
Well one good thing, today, is that I actually walked faster than someone at the track. It was a girl, I have never seen before, but I was almost thinking is this for real? There is actually a person that walks slower than moi? That was a first.
