It’s Friday. Today was my last workout with the group wearing my 50 pounds. My hips are sore (from the rubbing). My hamstrings are aching (from running with the weighted vest and the ankle weights). My body feels completely beat up and exhausted! I felt dizzy on the rowing machine this morning and wanted to [...]

Yesterday I did a lot of work from home on the computer. I had the tv on for a while and was shocked at the commercials! I don’t see many commercials since I don’t watch much regular tv.

I spent this morning with Michelle and Mary down in San Ramon. Those girls rock! I have to be honest – I wasn’t able to keep up with Mary most of the time.
