Weekend Exercise.
Sunday Disc Golf - 2 miles, wet and windy
I didn't get much in this last weekend. My distance running has been curbed by my sore arches and bad shoes. I would really like to get at least 2 good runs in a week going forward. 3 if I can squeeze it in. I did get new shoes at the Pig Convention, and I think I'll break them in before our scheduled Wed run. Just a like mile or 2.
Monday exercise
Spinning class was AWESOME today. The loud girls were separated in the back of the room by another spinner, so I didn't need to struggle to hear the already loud music and instructor. No Lady BlahBlah today either. Ok, so her art is cheap and catchy. It just doesn't do it for me. It's not motivating or driving. Sitting front and center in the room (like the teacher's pet in Elementary school) offers good fan air flow, and less distraction from the loud bitches in the back. Today there was something else too. Karen kept pushing me today, and I think I pushed her too. After class she said to me, " I thought I pushed it too hard during the first class, so I was going to take it easy for this one. I guess not :) " (quoted smile). She would look at me during class and ask if I could add more, or ask if " I could push myself breathless". It was great. I kept up all class, and felt very good at the end. on a side note, My gym shorts, socks and shirt were still wet in the dryer this morning, so I needed to wear my casual shorts, tall white socks and a pooey tshirt. The normal, inumerable drops of sweat decided to form a pool today. I was really hot.
Monday Weigh-in - 207 down 3 lbs from last week. I need a few more weeks like this to get to my goal once I start lifting and putting on mass.

Nice spinning class!! That's so cool that you and Karen can push each other! I'm sure it makes being the instructor of the class waaaay more rewarding for her when there's someone working their ass off. :) Nice job! Reading this made me want to try the spinning again at the Community Center... I've had an update from Krista that it's still in the same room for now but that there will be a spinning room opening. Interesting. Really just need improved music, lol.
I'm super excited about my ride tonight - this weather should be great. I hope more people come out. And I'm taking a bar and some nasty Gatorade (no bonking).
"Pig Convention." Where all the piggies come together and talk about the State of Mud and Farmer's Scraps and trade tips on how best to get a good pigtail curl. I really hope your new shoes feel great.
Nice job on the weight loss! 5 more weeks... and yay we have ways of getting on and off the island now!
