Okay! I went to the gym, and read while I recumbent-biked for 50 minutes. I am really enjoying this book, Solitaire. That plus music = totally didn't notice the first 40 minutes of the workout. Yay! And then I finished up with some weights and some floor stuff. I really like listening to the Podrunner podcast even when I'm not running per se - it's nice that it's an hour exactly, so even if I fail to pay attention to the machine's timers or if I'm moving around, I still know when I've done an hour. And the music's pretty good in a mindless-techno way.

And I took the stairs at home, before and after the gym. (The second time was definitely harder... I went slow.)

It felt really good to go back to the gym! I kind of like the feeling of sweat dripping off me. It's very cathartic.

And then I inhaled two big ol' tacos. They were deeeeeelicious. And I was hungry!

R's plan is to do something every day. I am not sure if I am up for that (unless stairs counts as "something") but I will see what happens tomorrow. My next planned gym visit is Thursday.

Hehe I do the same - music and book! It gives me "me" time, which I really enjoy. I don't work out -quite- as hard when I read, but I get more personal time. Also, I always have to bike (bad knees) - recumbent cuz it is the only bike at my gym.

A good gym work out is always good!! ^__^ YAY back to the gym! Go you!
