5 on the elliptical... computer is broke and we have laptop loner from my son-in-law while he fixes the computer... what a pain. So I will keep thing kinda short. The one thing that really struck me was the little girl that got on the elliptical just as I was about finished. If Carolyn sees Barbie on her runs, this girl was a Bratz doll with the additional tattoo package. Lovely leopard bra that was hanging out from her top, and her hair was teased to at least a 5 inch poof on her head. I won't go into all the details of her make-up that could take too long. But it was amazing! Then there was me with my sweaty pony tail... mismatch outfit (I swear I just grab what is clean) and a puddle of sweat around the machine. LOL what a sight!

5.4 on the elliptical, then weight and abs. 

Had to get my blood drawn for some tests before I go to the doctor. It took them four pokes before they could get my vein. OUCH!! I warned them that I have bad veins! I have not been able to get on other blogs much... hopefully  soon our computer will be fixed.

My daughter went with me to the gym, it's fun to have the company, and I figure pretty soon I won't be cool to hang around with so I will cherish the times that she wants to be with me.

5 on the elliptical then arms and abs. Kept it at a moderate level today, I have not been sleeping very well and fatigue is starting to set in. Good thing I'm going to the doctor soon.

Still feeling a bit tired... not too bad. Did 5.5 on the elliptical. 5 at a high intensity then cool down at .50 did some squats with the big ball behind my back on the wall. This was the first time since the surgery that it didn't hurt too much and I was able to feel like I was working my quads instead of hurting my knee. YAhhhh I must be healing a bit :) Then did back and ab work.

Crazy day!! When a 1-2 hour bike ride turns into a 5 hour bike ride! We had a total of 6 flat tires (5 of them on the ride, one fixed before we left). Then tons of weeding and gardening when we got home.

It is about a 19 1/2 mile ride, but I averaged it to 7 for my milage.
