Sunday, September 5, 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.

I didn't do anything yet, as for today.

I honestly wonder when I'll take actively part in this community. On the one hand I'd like to and it might move my entries re:"I did sports today!" from my journal, on the other hand... I hesitate. I don't know how to keep up the sporty routine. And posting. And everything. I'm afraid starting to post will make me stop doing exercises somehow. Jinxing it, or how does one say in English? Does this sound weird? I'm confused. *laugh*

Re: I didn't do anything yet, as for today.

Jinxing it sounds about right. How about you not worry about making it daily or even regular for now, but just tell us when you have done something? See how that goes?

Thank you!

Nobody's gonna check up on you or yell at you for not exercising. Our purpose here is overwhelmingly, "OMG, Yay! You did it!" And we're very, very good at that *grin*

Re: I didn't do anything yet, as for today.

[martyna]

Well, that's convincing! :) Thank you.

Did a core strength workout first thing, and then just got back from a run. My endurance isn't getting much better, but I no longer ache or feel sick after runs, so something's getting better.

Rest day!

I'll be taking a walk later today, but nothing strenuous.

[zanzando]

After the actual walk I feel like I need to edit this:

Took a walk and decided to head for the beach, where I watched the kiters for a bit and then walked back. About 7 km in all. Lovely early autumn Sunday, cold, sunny and windy, just the way I like it best. :)

Low key mile and a half walk to the shop today after yesterday's hike.

This morning I did the first part (Beginner's level) of the Bryan Kest Power Yoga. I liked it very much (though the music was kind of distracting.)

[semielliptical]

About a half hour yoga practice.

[lullabymoon]

30 wall pushups and 10 worktop pushups.

[alexseanchai]

Half-mile walk and a bunch of up-and-downing the stairs.
