We only saw 2 cyclists there, apart from us on a gorgeous Sunday afternoon. It's amazing how people go camping and totally miss those day use places! And, on my way back, a stag and a doe crossed the pass right in front of me, plus we went on an unpaved trail for the baby to run around. I will be doing it every weekend weather permitting! The hills are perfect too - all sorts.

I need to catch up on the push-ups though!
Sounds like a ton of fun and beautiful!

I do my push-ups on the ball. I think I was doing them incorrectly before, I googled push-ups on ball and bookmarked a ton of demonstrations. Before I kept the ball at my chest, which is probably easier. Now I am trying to do them better and try to keep the ball under my hips. It is harder, I feel like Humpty Dumpty because I keep falling down!
Goal-4 sets of 25 push-ups at least 3-4 days a week. (Ball Under Hips) I figure I can continue to try to do more reps as I become better at balance and at push-ups.
Those are so hard to do! Great job hon! Yes - so glad to have you. Great goals girly.

Wellllllllllllllllllllllllllllll I'm almost there! Just one more day and I'm back on! I plan on doing a run first thing in the morning, push-ups during the day and kickboxing in the evening - but then again my little nephew 'graduates' from Kindergarten so I may not have time.

Nonetheless - I SHALL BE BACK!

Did a nice 60 min walk this morning and feel great Tomorrow is the big day, 20 min straight run on the C25K program.... I am a little scared and hope I can do it...

Oh yes running I love running....wish I could run like the rest of the girls
If your arms are still sore you might want to take it a little easier. Depending how bad it is. If it's just a little it might just go away when you work the muscles again. If it's really sore you might want to weigh one extra day. Muscles need to recover before you work them again Also always stretch after your workout...something I so need to work on myself
Have fun running and working your arms

So how many days should I be doing push-ups? I have been doing them about everyday...I thought you could do that?
