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.

True -- that's very good advice.

Be careful, or I'll start giving you the sales pitch *g*.
(Actually, it's here.)

So the idea of actually getting in my car and going someplace to exercise (other than walking in my local park, five minutes away) is not something I'm likely to do. But I will keep it in mind! Maybe my kids will take up climbing again, and I can inveigle them to invite me.

Date: 2010-07-25 07:20 am (UTC)That's my natural tendency too. Got my yoga mat, a bunch of dumbells and a kettlebell or three, walk in the local parks, occasionally walk to a very local gym to use their barbells, etc.
So the fact that climbing actually motivates me to travel across the city on public transport is a measure of how very much I love it *g*.
