Day Twenty-Three

Today I finally made up for one of my missing days.  Thursdays have become my Yoga Class day.  Ninety minutes of power yoga.  Where I made up for one of the missing days was in that I biked downtown and back.  Made it almost all the way back before the downpour that drenched me.

So I am now only down two activities.

Day Twenty

Bike ride downtown.  This time 15 minutes.  I seem to shave a minute off each time I go.  I still have 3 activities to make up though with a week full of renovations I'm not sure how I am going to fit them in.

Day Nineteen

Between the dancing and the walk halfway home I'm gonna call that I did my activity for Day 19.

This post is dated for the correct day but was written on the 20th.

Day Eighteen

I decided to Walk to my drinking this time instead of walking back in the morning to find my car.  I walked to campus to pick up my friends, then up to the pre drink then back to the Grad Club for the dance.  All in all over an hour of walking.

Day Sixteen

I took my first actual Yoga class today.  It was really good, I enjoyed and learned a few things.  I now have some things to work on in addition the the routine I do at home.  It was over an hour but I will still count it as only one activity, even though I am still behind by three.  I hope to make at least one of those up over the weekend.

Day Thirteen

Okay so I had a bad weekend.  I mean it was a great weekend full of friends, some drink, and plenty of sushi.  Activity-wise though, I did nothing.  That puts me behind by three. 

Tonight I did my Yoga routine.  Did some Push Ups as well but not enough to redeem my 3 missing days.

Day Nine

Did my Yoga routine today.  I am finding the poses easier as I get more familliar with them.  It will be time to add more poses to my routine and I will likely hit a class with friends soon.  I do not think I am ready for a Hot Yoga class just yet.

I still have that missed day to make up for which I will likely do on the weekend.  I will likely be going for a hike on sunday with friends so I will try to add something in that day..

Day Seven

I hate to do this, especially so early in the challenge, but I have nothing to report today.  I will have to double up tomorrow or the next day to make up for it.

Day Six

Almost forgot to post today.  Went for my usual run.  Worked on my breathing and it went much better.

Tomorrow I need to do Yoga.  Might do another run as well.

Day Five

So I said from the beginning there might be days where walking downtown to get my car was going to be my activity and today is that day.

My car was at a friend's place on Queen's campus.  A 40 minute walk at a decent pace followed by a bit of walking around downtown.

Day Three

Just did the 30 minute yoga DVD that came with my mat.  Lots of good basics there.  I will need a few more goes at it before I can follow along without having to watch as much as I did tonight.  The stretching feels awesome and I do see how it does work the muscles as well just by holding up the weight of your own arms and legs.  Feels great.

PS: I only got attacked with dog kisses once.  Much better than when I attempt push ups and have a dog on the floor under me before I'm done.

Day One

Day one consisted of my usual run which I managed to do without any pain.  It was was quite a hot day so I couldn't have managed a second lap.  I decided that a ten minute run was a bit of a ripoff as far as the challenge goes so I went downtown with Jessie and met up with a friend and took a decent walk.

On to day two tomorrow...  I have not decided what my activity will be.
