Diabetes Sucks!!!

I don't like it! I don't want it! But I've got it! And once you have it, you always have it. But I can do something about it and that is what this blog is about. My journey to better health and wellness. Yes, for the rest of my life!!!

Hot with a chance of heat...

A tough 5 miles. It was pretty much overcast until I got outside (of course) and then it just got sunny again. Oh well, I did get a couple of quick breaks of cloudinesse but not much. I finished my water way before I was done running which I haven't been doing lately. I am just glad I didn't get overheated. Gatorade a cold shower followed. Running break tomorrow...just upper body and abds at PF.

Working out is working out...

An upper body workout at PF plus a mile on the elyptical plus 5 miles in the evening. It feels good to exercise...not that I don't have to push myself to do it but I reap the rewards when I do and I try to think that way when I am getting ready to go.

The heat is on...

It was an evening scorcher tonight! I left at 7:30 and I was dripping before I left my street! I have to say that I had been out for 2 hour prior in the pool area watering plants and fixing them up a bit. I bought a few new ones that I pruned, too, so I was already a little warm before my exercising ever got started. I also had that full body workout on Wed. which I'm not fully recovered from yet. My legs were sore before I left. Now they are extremely sore. Epsom salt bath is in order for later tonight.

Elyptical at PF. I thought I'd be running later in the day but it turned not to happen so I only got the mile in but with an upper body and ab workout on the side!

Quick evening walk/run at 7:30 pm with little sun and humidity. I stepped up the pace for a faster time. More running, too. I think I could go the entire 5 miles now running, if I chose to...hmmm.....
