1 hour on the treadmill with a fan...watched storage wars northern treasures...3 miles total stopping for untied shoe laces...I did not want to work out but I am glad I did : D

Already the light seemed changed this am
for my run...I count every foot strike...every
mile a blessing for which I'm grateful for...and
also remind myself that it has been my love of
this movement we call running, jogging, walking
...a moving love embrace...and that I love myself
for continuing to say "Yes!".

Desert hot run with light later...

keep on keepin' on my friends, Greco

I always feel that way too when I've worked out but didn't want to or feel up to it initially.

I was supposed to have a training session today but my trainer canceled so I stayed home and moved stuff around in my home, which is a different kind of workout.

Welllll, I walked in the pride march. I'll count that as an hour due to starts and stops and such. It was like 8,000 steps. That was on June 24th.

I am finally done with school, so I have July and August to exercise, among other things. Today I went to the gym, and I felt so rusty. I did 30 minutes on the stairmaster. Then I did 30 minutes on the floor (weight lifting, stretching, yoga, leg weights).

I want to get my groove back. I saw Judith but ducked around a corner so she wouldn't see me. Introvert. Not in the mood for Republicans.

I haven't been as good as I should be either.

I did make it back this morning, but mainly to work the damage out that I did to my back yesterday. I wrenched it lifting a piece of equipment into our truck for a customer. Next time, they can lift it on their own.

Thankfully, my back's better. Not 100%, but better.

Elliptical stats: 220 cal, 1.49 mi, 25:00 min

I spent some time stretching really good on the mat afterwards.

I am in Las Vegas, arrived yesterday. This afternoon I used the hotel gym. I was the only woman there. GO ME! My routine was:

1 hour on the treadmill, 3 mph. 30 minutes weightlifting, abs, and stretching.

It was a functional gym, nothing special. But really, with gyms, that's all one needs.

I am watching "The staircase: Secrets and lies" on Netflix. It's a true crime series. They really try and draw it out, so I had to fast-forward through a way too long and repetitive forensics scene. But I'm still gonna continue watching.

Cool, tricky 6mi run this am on still wet sandy road,
more storming later today, so tomorrow's walk
will be fun 4mi

Back to longer 10 - 15 runs on Sundays, yes, I've
missed them. Stepping it up 2019 is around the
corner.

Nada today. I've been a lazy bum lately. I need to get back into the rhythm of things.

Made it to the gym before going to the art festival today!

Elliptical stats: 219 cal, 2.09 mi, 30:00 min

Then I walked for about 2.5 hours at the festival.

Cut up tons of pallets to burn stump ... also, dug out deep around this huge freaking stump. I did not get up under the stump enough with my digging yet but getting close. It will burn a lot faster if I can put some 4x4 pieces up under it. The 4x4 chunks burn slow for a long time. I came in and changed clothes 4 times, even underwear and socks were drenched with sweat.

I don't know about calories but I bet I weigh 4 or 5 pounds less from this morning. Definitely a robust and lengthy workout. Made sure to constantly be drinking lots of ice water. The humidity is overwhelming!

I dragged myself to the gym this morning after a rough night. My goal wasn't a heavy duty workout but to keep moving and make sure my joints stay flexible and 'lubed'.

Elliptical stats: 190 cal, 1.67 mi, 30:00 min. Different elliptical than yesterday.

When I got there, I was the 4th person to arrive. All females. At least two of the three were family. Very nice looking butches. Not sure if it was butch-butch or butch-femme but there were only two cars outside so someone came with someone or else walked a long way since there's no residences nearby.

Kettle bell workout and yard work slash housework slash laundry. It counts! Those baskets of wet clothes are heavy and I have to carry them out in the yard.

I did a second work-out in Las Vegas the day after I did the one I most recently posted about. This second one was on Friday, July 6th. I went on the treadmill again for an hour but did not have time to stretch after. After this work-out I felt horrible! My joints, especially my ankles, were a mess, like I'd been on a roller-coaster. So that means bad shock absorption. Luckily it went away after a day off.

Today back at home in NYC I did 40 minutes on the stairmaster and 20 minutes of floor exercising, weight lifting, and stretching. The stair master is heaven to me. I just hope they don't get rid of them- they only have 2 left. One opened up tonight, and I ran to it like my ass was on fire!

I was supposed to get up and work out this morning but opted to sleep late instead. Sometimes, you have to know when to push forward and when to pull back.

Default stretch-i-n-g


So Sunday did my new mileage of
10mi...it was intense to say the least
with the stunning beauty of this place.

Anyway, what I wanted to share was
about something I don't usually share
and that is very important to my continuing
to run uninjured - for the most part, blisters
not included - and that is stretching.

I stretch from 30mins to 1hr depending
on the distance and the intensity of run,
or walk. On Sunday, I stretched for 5mins,
got home, showered in hot-cold water,
drank my green smoothie as I stretched
for an hour. Which activity is more meditative?
Well, for me, both...I do not like to sit to meditate
so I do it on a run, a walk, and during stretching.

Yesterday, I stretched only and had plenty of
green smoothie and H20...Today, I walked
with a buddy, not talkie, and we covered
3.5mi...good week so far.

keep on keepin' on, Greco

Today I did 30 minutes on the stair master. I did a pattern in two minute increments of Levels 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 (3 repeats of it), followed by an extra four minutes at level 1 to cool down. it felt great.

Then I did 20 minutes of stretching and floor exercises. It feels amazing to stretch after an intense work-out. It is very meditative.

Having the summer off and getting to sleep in is very helpful for letting the body rejuvenate itself for the next work-out. I have such a hard time getting enough sleep during the school year. So the summer is luxurious to be able to stay up late (I'm a night owl) and sleep in (I'm not a morning person).

I did 35 minutes on the stairmaster: 5,4,3,2,1 x 2 min. x 3 "sets", then cool down for six min. at 3,2,1,2,1,1 x 2 min. The 54321 is a fun routine, pretty rigorous.

Then I did 25 min. of weight lifting and stretching, and some core and ab exercises.

I ran into the same gym member I did yesterday in the locker room, Taylor. I may have mentioned her before. She's a petite house manager in her mid-thirties, very pretty, straight, and she has an edge to her. She works in a billionaire's big building that he lives in alone.

We originally met next to each other on stair masters, and she was immediately conversational at that time. When I told her I was married to a woman (in the context of an immediate personal conversation), she soon put her arm on mine to emphasize a point or highlight a laugh as we continued to talk, which I saw as a sign of, "I am not put off by you being a lesbian." Like a sweet liberal gesture. Also a little weird. Especially because we were still on stair masters.

So today we chatted about this and that. Then as she was about to leave, she did what we therapists call "a doorknob confession." She saves what's really been most on her mind for the very end, just as we are concluding. She told me that she had a falling out with another gym member, Ali. I don't know if I know Ali but I do know there a lot of crazy bitches in the locker room. She said that she and Ali had exchanged numbers as they became better friends but that Ali would text her like 15 times a day. She said it was annoying and that unless she was having sex with someone, she would not want to receive that many texts.

But that was just background, maybe to set me up not to like Ali. She said that when she and Ali would make a plan to do something that sometimes she (Taylor) would have to cancel because of work. She said that Ali would say, "I'm so sorry you have to work." And Taylor would say she didn't mind, and Ali would say, "But you don't sound genuine saying that." She said they had that exchange a few times, and it always annoyed Taylor.

Taylor said that Ali doesn't work and has a boyfriend who pays for everything for her. Taylor said she doesn't have a boyfriend or kids, and that her job is her life, that she's been on her own since she was 17, and she feels happy and grateful about her job. So Taylor confronted Ali about this, and how the exchange made her feel bad every time they had it. Ali became defensive, and Taylor asked if their friendship was over, and Ali said yes. Taylor was a bit concerned about still seeing Ali in the gym and also looking for validation from me. I validated.

Taylor I see as having a bit of a personality disorder. She both unnerves me and intrigues me. She's sort of interesting.

No Judith today.
