Well, I went to the Big Dam Bridge at 8:00 this evening. By then it was only 85 degrees. Started walking it. The bridge is roughly 3/4 of a mile across it. I probably walked 1/4 of it when it started a thunder storm with lightning. I am all about this exercise deal but not to the extent of getting struck by lightning!
All ages walk, run, bike on the BDB. Saw a mother pushing a double stroller with twins. Thought about my cuz out in New Mexico who pushes her babies like that. She is a fitness guru too. Now regarding the bikers, I must say these people are serious! They are wearing their spandex shorts, helmets, and are bent over on the bikes so much they are practically parallel with the ground. One whizzed by me and provided a nice breeze! Although I would like to eventually ride a bike, I am thinking more of a model like those lime green bikes on the Regions Bank commercial. They are old school and cool!
Got a comment today on the blog that says I should do 5 days of workouts per week. Now this sounds like a plan I could live with. I don't know who you are O.One but I like your way of thinking!
I didn't go to the gym yesterday. THERE I ADMIT IT. I, GYM VIRGIN, DID NOT GO TO THE GYM YESTERDAY! My husband saw I got home early and asked me if I went to the gym and I LIED. I said I went at lunch time. What a crock. I mean if I go at lunch time, then I will look like a wet noodle at work for the rest of the day. Well I guess I could TRY going at lunch. I have been whining that a one hour lunch is too long anyways. I could try that, I think. maybe. My sister says if you get the exercise out of the way early in the day then you don't have to dread it. Of course, my sister plays tennis, and is a size 6. SHE DID NOT GET ANY OF THE FLUFFY GENE POOL. I got every single one of them. Now I tell you on what planet is that fair?
Today's workout routine (I like saying routine because it makes it sound like I know what I am doing) is to go down to the Big Dam Bridge and try to walk over it. Yes kids, they really named it the Big Dam Bridge. It is fitting in more ways than one. I will let you know how that goes when I walk over the Big Dam Bridge. I just like saying the Big Dam Bridge. Big Dam Bridge, Big Dam Bridge, Bid Dam Bridge.
