Taking a rest day. Woke up with a charlie horse in my right calf this morning and my leg is sore. I'll have DH rub it out tonite. I'll check in here everyday just to keep me motivated. I'll try to get on my gazelle tomorrow and see if i'm okay.
Keep going everyone it's almost the middle of the month.
We've got a goal to meet.

It's not much but it was good to work that muscle out on my calf.

Thanks Sherri,
How is that nasty muscle feeling? Those can be a real Pain, (pardon the pun). Go slowly, you don't want to hurt anything!

It's better Mary, thanks for asking. I'll be able to get a mile in tomorrow I think. I'll give my best go anyways.

Remember challengers to challenge yourself. Always looking to beat each time or distance. I noticed today i'm ready for a little more resistance in my workout. Lean back when you're gazellling and run uphill and then push down on those handles and go down hill. This wil tone you like you won't believe. I notice my arms actually have veins popping out. LOL I have veins! and could feel it in my maximus and abs.

as Jim Carey in the mask would say, SOMEBODY STOP ME" LOL
25 minute mile on Gazelle today. I was just going to go on for ten minutes and I was feeling so good or a song would come on and i'd step it up.
Getting a good work-out with the resistance and making sure i'm moving my waiste in strides. Getting those arms on top of the handles working the shoulders and back. Felt good!
I also notice that even when i'm done, i'll keep going untill the song i'm listening to, stops. Gives me that extra push.

Hey Sherry,
You are doing great, too!!!
I am watching the premier of Biggest Loser right now, and it is really motivation to keep going back to that gym and all the classes available to me there.
