Hey, EED community!

Here is your daily check-in post! Hope everyone is having a great day!

If you are posting for the first time, or new to the community, please review the community's standards, below.


1. Mod (that's me!) will post a Daily Check In post, for those who prefer to note their daily activities in response to a prompt. Please only place exercise comments here.

2. All members are encouraged to post daily independent posts about their activities, if they prefer that to a prompt.

3. Please place any NON-EXERCISE comments in independent update posts and behind a cut. Some people are sensitive to discussion of diet and nutrition. That is integral to many people's exercise activities, so I want members to be able to discuss that, but for those who are here strictly to log exercise, I would like them to be able to avert their eyes.

4. Everyone is encouraged to introduce themselves, discuss their exercise goals, and post updates on their activities. "I finally made it to running a mile!" or "I kicked up into handstand today!" are updates that we all want to hear about and share! Please put long posts and entries involving diet and nutrition behind a cut, though.

5. Aside from intro posts and injury announcements, please try to include an exercise update in every post.

Swimming, half a kilometre. In the medium lane, because the slow lane was full of people who swim slower than I do. Unfortunately, the medium lane contained a man who should have rightly been swimming in the fast lane, and who couldn't stick to his own side of the lane, and who kept mowing me down. I got a good kick in. It wasn't intentional - he just happened to swim past way too close while I was doing breaststroke - but it sure was satisfying to feel it connect.

Day of rest.

First half of Yoga X, plan on doing the other half after work. Love it, but it is soooo long and I just cannot get up 45 minutes earlier.

Rest-ish day; a little bit of stretching and a few body weight exercises.
