Did a variety of Wii, workouts, ran, biked, strength, some yoga and balance- heart rate was doing good, some flexibility etc coming back, still feel the hamstrings from the Spartacus workout. Good way to start the day, good energy throughout.
Tonight was to be a medium but as I was doing overtime, too late, too wet, too tired and my frame is talking to me through my hamstrings, did some light stretching Good rest tonight back at it tomorrow AM - Wii or Pilates and then a run tomorrow night.... once the sun has set, night still falls before my work day ends!
MUST USE GARMIN!

The two-fer
Sunday afternoon went for a solid fast paced walk BUT it had been a while since the Garmin was charged so the battery died 3/4 of the way through. Worked on getting the training partner to stay close and foot movement, stride and pace. All in all a good return to the workouts! 2k nothing to get excited about.
Monday AM - did a Wii weigh in ( no comment) and completed 20 minutes of aerobic, muscular and yoga a good variety and overall two days in a row! Did not wear the Garmin as I would have to fiddle not recording satellites etc. No pulse check but I was working, and working out. Tonight and tomorrow AM are rest days and tomorrow night will be the first run. Working late so we will see how I feel about going back out after 8:30, ha ha!

No excuses!
Let 2012 be the year of no excuses! Sounds like a resolution, way beyond its time. So I have worked out a few times since Jan 1, and not blogged. I am still over 50 and trying to get fit. But those are recent history and will not be any further noted than here. Done.
So today I went for a walk/ run with the training partner and my Garmin. (Note to self, to receive the full benefit of the Garmin wear the chest strap to get a HR to be recorded by the Garmin) Great route, the bridge I cross was closed for repairs and so I did an out and back route. I did not think to continue pass the bridge, by going back to the road and turning north, I went back and turned south, the total distance for time was 23:54 of walk/ run. The ice conditions had an impact on the pace.
The training partner did not complain. Some minor amounts of snow have fallen recently and will do so for another 5 days. Wednesday will be the real snow fall this week. The sky was otherwise clear with streamers of light cloud, no sun as it was 5:30 in the AM. The ice and snow crunched under foot. my breath was clearly visible, and I could feel the result of every minute of inactivity since I last blogged.
I did not stretch prior to going, I had not intended to run, but I did - my knees do not like frozen ground, frozen asphalt or movement at times. Today was okay on the movement and it will be a long day today. Going to be reading from Isaiah, today and I will let you know if there is anything pertinent.
Where is my heart, as it relates to fitness and is it close or far from my objectives of being fit?
How healthy is my heart after 50 years of good and bad habits (eating etc)
Physical fitness and spiritual fitness what is the relationship?
How badly do I want to get fit these year? The tri-sport event may take me two years to do. Not really for any fitness reasons, although the September event is only 34 weeks away (approx). I do not have a bike and I do not have a kayak; to practice with. Maybe it will take two years total to get the equipment in place while I stumbled toward my fitness goals of 155 lbs and sub 40 min 10km, let alone bicycling, kayaking and well the time commitment to raise the entry fee for the Canuck house event. I have learned one valuable thing - patience and planning, today is another day and I put a small building block toward completion of the event.
As for Isaiah 28 to 31:9
Am I showing love with only my words or all of my heart? Are human rules more important? Is the fire in my heart to do the event a flicker of a candle or the blast of a furnace?
