Just 10 things to share with the class:
1. I went to physical therapy yesterday morning for my second visit. First I got ultrasound and electro therapy with heat and then we worked on strengthening my entire left leg since it’s so weak. I had to balance on my bad foot on a stability trainer like this dude…
It was quite challenging as the minutes went by. We’re also working on strengthening my hips so she had me do a penguin walk with a resistance band tied around my legs like this chick…

I did some wall squats and the “shuttle”

Then they let me use the elliptical for 10 minutes!
2. I took this selfie on Sunday night…
3. I hit up TraderJoes last night after work for some fresh produce and just had to get this bouquet of flowers since they were only $4.99!
4. I bought this juice for the first time and I kinda liked it. Well except that it cost $8.50. I drank half yesterday and half today. But I don’t think I am going on the juice craze just yet.
5. I went to the gym at lunch and did 3 miles on the elliptical….you know….a 3liptical.

I sweat quite a lot considering my entire workout was only 34 minutes. I really needed that. They just started offering Bodypump classes. Ever been?
6. I sat I way too much traffic yesterday.
7. I was thinking of buying a new Garmin just because they make them in prettier colors these days but mine works just fine so I guess the frugal side of me will shoot down the idea.
8. It’s been 8 weeks and 2 days since the NJ Marathon where I set that huge PR and was feeling amazing until I felt my sore foot which we all know became tendonitis that i’m still dealing with. Maybe jumping for this pic wasn’t so smart.
jumpin for joy at my PR
9. And in the last 8 weeks and 2 days I have only run 4 times. (two 4-milers and two 10ks)
10. I drove with Duncan to the beach for a walk tonight.
still unsure about the water
but loves riding shotgun. and its perfecting timing for #tongueouttuesday
So tell me 10 things or even just 1 thing…
Would you consider your eyes green or emerald? 🙂
Hazel!
1. I ran 3 miles before work….albeit very slow 3 miles. Not used to the humidity yet.
2. I love Trader Joes’s. Their banana chips are super yummy.
3. I love your blog!
4. I have maintained 229 pound weight loss for 4 months as of today
today. I had weight loss surgery December 2011. That and running have saved me!
5. My first half marathon is November 29th-the day before my 38th birthday. The best way for me to celebrate! I love racing!
Congratulations on #1 and #4! You’re gonna have a great day 11/29….first half marathon means automatic PR.
And thanks for liking my blog =)
