Just checking in. We (Melanie my daughter, and Courtney, her bff) are doing our nightly walking, running and work outs. I do have to say that they have been intense for me. With the girls being so young they have a lot of stamina and energy and they push me along. It makes me feel good to challenge them. I have been sore for a few days since I started working out with them. It feels good to be sore again, like my workouts are working again. I have felt like I mastered my workout routine months ago and it's gotten really boring. So, this brings new life on my workouts. We are going to do this 3 mile walk where half of it is straight uphill. I hope not tonight tho as it's gonna be brutal!

Well, it's August 1st now. Last night we did a walk for 3 miles and half of it was all uphill. I have been fearing doing this walk because it is such a grueling walk, uphill, and strenuous. I used to walk it before but have not in many months. I was afraid I couldn't handle it.

Well, the girls I walk with have long legs and for every step they do I have to take 3. I felt like I was trotting up the hill as they easily were striding. They suddenly broke out in a run and I was getting left behind so then I had to pick up the pace. Thank God they stopped or I would have never caught up! We ran a few times during the walk up and downhill. I was so surprised that I was able to do the walk and it was not really so bad after all! So, looks like we have a new route.

Yay, I made my mini goal today of 210!!!! Next minigoal is 199 onederland!

My dream is to have KELLY RIPPA ARMS!!!!!!!!!!!!
