August 4, 2010 Check-In

[muck_a_luck]

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.

Happy Wednesday!

35 minutes on elliptical machine, 5 minutes nice stretchy and bendy bends and streches.

Did a little yoga, and day two/week two of pushups program. More yoga later, probably.

Going to go off now and look for some stuff -- yoga mat and some way to easily carry my ipod and a water bottle while I'm running (I kept them in my hands yesterday -- not ideal). I've stuck to exercising every day most of this summer, I think it's safe to say I won't waste such accessories.

40 minutes total of pilates and yoga. I was going to walk/jog around the yard but then it got too hot. I might try in the evening. I want to at least try to do week one, day one of C25K.

I have strength training exercises to do this afternoon.

Morning yoga, then 90 minutes RL shadow yoga class (which is weird and esoteric and just a little bit scary).

And some grocery-hauling.

Walked 2 miles, then did crunches and stretches.

[lullabymoon]

20 minutes of yoga and some other stretches.

Did my 20 mins of yoga this morning, then walked down to the drs (15 mins each way). Just about to do the half hour evening yoga podcast - I did the first 15 mins last night, and wished I'd started earlier as I had to stop because I was too tired and it was far too late for me to still be up. Going to do it all tonight, the bit I tried yesterday was lovely.

20 minutes of yoga this morning.
