Thursday, August 18, 2011, Check-In

[weirdquark]

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 (or someone else) 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.

X Stretch. Ahh.

Morning yoga, two hours climbing.

Running, 6.2km
It was wonderful peaceful, running towards the sunset in the pink light. I did not push myself, I still feel the burpees and squats from Tuesday.

8 km bicycling. NRoLfW stage 3 workout B for the second time.

There was a woman at the gym who seemed to be doing stage 1, with serious weights. Too bad that I'm too shy to talk to people at the gym...

[willful_zephyr]

Vinyasa Yoga class.

Spent the first half of the week hiding in the metaphorical corner with panic attacks and general free-floating anxiety, so not much exercising got done. I blame Rick Perry.

But today I made it back to ye olde CrossFit, where I managed to finish slightly more than half of the prescribed over-the-top workout.

Governor Good Hair definitely has that effect when his mouth moves.

[semielliptical]

Walk, 30 minutes.

Did my usual free-weights arm workout (for the first time in more than a year, I think) and I tried planks (thanks, vass!) and locust pose (thanks, rydra_wong!) which were amazing!

[flowerstar]

14km biking, same as ever (looking forward to September and finally getting some variety in my exercise!)

Ripped in 30, Level 1. Modified as needed to accommodate sprained ankle.
