I know... lovely right?? HAHA This is me in Hydro circuit. No, I was not alone, there were 3 other people in the class with me. Altho it looks sunny and warm, only half of that is correct. It was about 40 deg and sunny. But the pool is heated to about 89 so as long as you stay under the water it's awesome! The sun was out all day today but so cold. This morning on our beach walk, the sand was frozen and crunchy. Weird when you are at a beach with palm trees and the sand is frozen.I took a recovery day and didn't do as much today. Yesterday was a ball buster and tomorrow is another 5k beach run. I'm also having "hormonal issues" so my energy is waning.
Exercise:
Sunrise beach walk
Belly dancing
Ultra Circuit
Hydro Circuit
Yoga for abs and back
I skipped one class to ice my knee and knit. Also took some of the easier classes to give me some recovery time.
Lectures:
Importance of sleep and sleep disorders - I need to look into my sleep when I get home, I'm sure I'm not getting enough or the right kind.
Cooking Demo - Winter Vegetables. Got some yummy recipes.
After dinner and a game of bingo, I rushed home to shower and watch Biggest Loser only to discover that it is not on because of the Olympics... I'm bummed out!
We had a blast at dinner tonight, our table was laughing so loud and having such a good time everyone thought we were hiding a flask. A few really fun people came this week and although the first group of friends was great, I'm enjoying the new group as well. I'll start taking pics of my friends for the blog, that will give me something to post anyway! :)
Carey... you are so awesome! You never miss a post or making an encouraging comment. You rock! Justin has been just as awesome as well, hopefully he already knows I think he rocks too. Thanks to everyone who follows the blogs and encourages me. I'm so happy to be an influence to people. It's such a great feeling! I love you guys!!!!!
Tamy, got your card and heard the confetti inside so I opened it at the front desk. I left some of it for Kela, my friend at the desk. She is fun and helpful. Thanks for sending the card! Made me smile!

ReplyDeleteI love you and miss you very much and cant wait till were together again. Dont overdo the knee, we still have to walk all over Savannah. The puppys said to thank you for the treats. See you soon
ReplyDeleteI am blown away that it is only 40 degrees there! Hope you are having fun, enjoy while you can because believe it or not, it's almost time to come back to 'all of this, here at home'
ReplyDeletehugs. PS~ Jeff is here, he says hi! He also says work hard retard. JK
How do you like the Hydro Circuit? Is it shallow, or deep water? If it's shallow, you should come take my class sometime-it's so much fun... about 25 minutes cardio, and 30 minutes arms, abs and leg strength training.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like the emails... Just showing my love as a Karen Flatt Healthy Adventure Fan Club Member.
Oh-I had the same "OH NO!" tonight... I panicked when I saw my DVR wasn't taping BL!!!! Stupid athletic world competition! :)
TAKE CARE OF THAT KNEE!!!! My right knee sounds like rice krispies going up the stairs. Knee pain is no fun.
You are doing such fun work... I can't believe all the new things you are trying, and you're always so positive. Amazing, woman, you are!
Have a good night, and don't hit that flask too hard the rest of the evening... save some for tomorrow. ;)
Karen

This week is going to be sunny, so we can start running outside and get some yard work done.

Karen I did it! I got lots of financial aid and got my knife kit, books and chef's outfits today! :-) YEAH! We are both jumping in the right direction, told you that you were inspiring!
ReplyDeleteHuge huge HUG!
I did it, I got off my ass and ran 3 miles today. Now my legs are a little sire but i'm sure that it will be worse in the AM. We will get fit together honey, even if it kills us : )
