Saturday, September 4, 2010, Check-In

[muck_a_luck]

Hey, EED community!

Here is your daily check-in post!

I finally made us an icon! Hope you like it!

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.

Low-key morning yoga, REST DAY.

[zanzando]

83 situps and some squats, testing my knees. Thighs: burning.

Yoga and pushups, today. I did more yoga last night, an arm strengthening thing, and it was very hard on me, so I went gently this morning. Arm strength is not my forte!

Half-mile walk.

[cofax7]

Ran a slow 3.8 hilly miles today in the fog. And thirty pushups, and some crunches.

I'm pretty sure running back and forth across a busy library for 5 hours and shifting half the contents of said library constitues my exercise for the day.

Other than that, some gentle stretches.

A walk in the morning, and about an hour of yoga in the afternoon.

I fulfilled the letter, if not the spirit, of my goal to do an hour of yoga each day during my vacation by splitting my yoga session into two. Also took a nice walk with my husband. A stroll, rather than a power walk, but it's all good.

Eight and a half mile hike, with most of the first hour and a half walking uphill. I managed that with only three short stops. Gorgeous day, gorgeous location, bit of an adventure as I hadn't been along most of the route before. My legs have that 'I walked today' feeling, but in a good way.
