Mmmmm, luckily I am an excellent multi-tasker.
Oats and blogging are old friends 🙂
I know that “they” say it’s best to give your food your full attention but sometimes it slows me down to be doing something while I eat. I like to take a bite and chew it for a nice long time as I type a bit or read.
It is a gorgeous day here in Central Virginia and I am so glad I have plans to be outside most of the afternoon.
Last night was really nice. We met Yoshia at South Street Brewery for a drink/catch up/business meeting. Yoshia and I were friends from 8-13 years old (in West Virginia) and have been completely out of touch since 1998 or earlier. She called Tate Monday in response to a Craigslist ad for an office we have for rent, she didn’t know she was calling my husband! We chatted for 3 hours last night! It’s so fun to be around people with so many friends in common.
Yoshia is a massage therapist and is very interested in renting an office and joining us in our vision for a wellness center!
Today I am going to strength train (20-30 minutes with Exercise TV), go for a walk with a friend (probably 4 miles), bike to yoga, and take a yoga class (YAY). It’s going to be an active day!
What’s your workout plan?
I have to tell you, I am loving the committing to my workouts with you here, getting your support, and following up! You’re my workout buddies!
If you haven’t participated yet, it’s SO easy! Write a comment in response to this post about your exercise plan for today then come back tonight and let us know how it went. Think of it as a way to put your workout on your to-do list then you cross it off at night with another comment. Remember, this is all about support, if you don’t complete your whole workout plan don’t be afraid to tell us! Life happens! Some people do better when they set their goals a little higher than achievable.

My active day involves YOU!
YAY!
I am going to shoot for 20-30 minutes of yoga today.
Awesome 🙂
How fun to meet up with a long lost friend!
I followed through with yesterday’s workouts except strength training with Dave last night; so we got up early this morning to work legs & back together as well as abs. Now I’m committing to taking Eisley [the pup] for a long walk this afternoon — even though it is COLD today — because she deserves an active day too.
Dress warm and have fun! That’s great that you got your workout in this morning, truly better late than never!
I love the idea of your ‘Comment Commit!’ If I publicly commit to fitness goals, I’m much more likely to follow through! Well, let’s hope!!!
My plan for today is (1) Deep clean my friend’s house for upcoming sale-5 hrs.(definitely exercise, if you ask me), (2) walk my dog, twice, and (3) either practice some yoga or hit up the elliptical for at least 30 min.
Off we go! Have a great and active day!!! Thanks!
Completed (1) and (2), but not (3). On my list for today. Thanks for the inspiration!
Awesome and what a lucky friend you have!
I committed to running 4.4 miles tonight, but it was 14 degrees and icy! I made it through 2.2 miles (half my circuit) and ended up walking back home because my legs were crampy and felt like bricks! I promised I dressed in layers!
I was not defeated and when I got home, I did a 35 minute fun circuit all around my house including planks, running up and down the (steep!) stairs in my house, jumping jacks, tricep curls, deadlifts and squats! Afterward, I felt GREAT!
Holy crap, you ran in 14 degrees? Dang, LA girl, I just may have underestimated you (NOT your strength, endurance, or determination, but your ability to handle a chill!)!
I love that you recognize how GREAT it made you feel!
14 degrees?! Goodness girl. Kudos for making it 2.2 miles. I love that you didn’t just give up & go home — way to stick it out & adapt!
I know! And this girl wasn’t even a runner 2 years ago!
Today was crazy busy! I’m going to wind down by doing a healthy back workout and 15 minutes of yoga
That’s great! Way to get moving even when “life” gets in the the way :).
