WHR Day 21

Tuesday, December 7th: Day 21 ~ Runyan Canyon to the tippy top... And it was perfect out. Hope it's like this again tomorrow. I love that So Cal can't make up it's mind about the weather right now.

WALK HIKE RUN 16-20

Thursday 12/2 Day 16: 20 min walk through neighborhood

Friday 12/3 Day 17: Yoga + S Factor

Saturday 12/4 Day 18: Thought for sure I wasn't gonna make it after working at 7am that morning. Took a late afternoon nap and woke up fully energized. Fit in a quick 20 minute run before a dinner date.

Sunday 12/5 Day 19: Taught S Factor in the morning and was going to walk to the Grove with my beau, then it started raining. No walk :(

Monday 12/6 Day 20: I can't believe it's day 20 already. Lately I've been feeling evening runs are a good motivator to keep the couch from swallowing me. So that's what I'll do tonight.

Walk Hike Run Day 15

Runyon

It's only been two weeks but I can already feel the difference in my body when I go for a walk, hike or run. It's amazing how fast our bodies respond to movement and exercise. Endorphins are released, we get stronger, move faster and it just gets easier.

It sounds like I didn't move at all before this challenge. I did. But I hadn't been getting some degree of exercise everyday. And I love how I've bounced back.

It's not too late to start. We got ALL month and...

WHR ~ Day 14

Two weeks into my 45 day challenge of WALK HIKE RUN and so far so good. Have missed only a day. Maybe 2 days if you don't count the days I taught dance instead.

Yesterday, I was very proud of myself for coming home and going for a run. No mileage to brag about, but I moved and definitely enough for a Monday after Thanksgiving.

Day 14: Today, hiking Runyon Canyon.

That's all to report for now. What about you? Are you out there?

Walk Hike Run Days 9~13

Day 9 & 10: Thanksgiving and the day after simply consisted of 20 minute walks to feed my friend's cats. Though Friday I did teach dance too :)

Day 11: Saturday my honey and I went for a nice long hike through Malibu Solstice Canyon and it was gorgeous.

Day 12: Sunday I taught 4 hours worth of dance classes back to back and called it a day.

Day 13: Today, Monday 11/29, will be somewhat of a challenge again. I guess that is the whole point of this... So that I don't let days just slip by without getting some form of movement. But the early sunsets and cooler nights make it a little less motivating to get out after a long day of work unless you have to walk to a subway or something in NY... Which I miss doing. But I'll take my walk or perhaps even run after work. Because I promised I would.

WHR Day 7 & 8

Tuesday came and went with a day entailing class with amazing ladies, lunch with friends, some self pampering and dinner with old girlfriends. I didn't walk hike or run. But I had a very fulfilling day.

Wednesday, day 8, 40 min walk over to the Grove and back. Then lots of cooking and baking.

What will Thanksgiving morning bring?

WALK HIKE RUN Days 5 & 6

Day 5: Sunday was killed easily with 2 1/2 hours of shopping in Pasadena, also known as CARDIO. There's a reason not a lot of women shop online. How else would they get their exercise?

Day 6: Today is a challenge. Mondays I am usually able to squeeze in a quick hike before the sun goes down. But I'm working extra hours today and won't be off work until 6pm. I.e. Dark and cold out. I'm tempted to just jump around and dance for 20 min. I'll keep you posted.

Over and out.
