Utah Valley in June and then either Nike Womens (if I draw out in the lotto) or Big Cottonwood.

Wind is worse. Wind will always keep me in bed.

But her workouts hurt my joints and really make my shin splints flare up. I'm hoping that by adding some ab work to my walking/floor aerobics (cause that's really what the walking DVDs are is aerobics with simpler moves, and no step.) that I can start to lose some of the bulk around my middle.

You're in Northern Utah, right? I can help you find a studio. Or if you want to drive to my house on Monday or Friday I can show you a few things

Do you run with something over your face when it is that cold?

I am, just west of Ogden. Where are you at? I got a few ab workout ideas from a friend of mine. I'm really wanting to get back into doing the other DVDs. Running kills my knees, even when I have the "right shoes" (went to a running shoe store and got fitted twice and both pairs it still killed me). So the DVDs work really well for me. But that's a really good idea if I run out of stuff or get bored with my workouts. I tend to get bored really easily, but I know I have to keep moving. I feel so much better when I do something.

That's awesome!!! I never thought to keep track of how many miles I run, but that sounds kinda fun. I might have to start.

I stuck with my work out plan and got in exercise 5 days in a row! I'm beat and my body needs a rest day.

I log my miles on daily mile and with my garmin. I am over 50 for this month which is pretty amazing considering...

I use both dailymile and runtastic to keep track
plus a calendar (good ole paper and pencil!!)

Great job on listening to your body and taking much needed rest!!
