No1Obviously, I forgot to post last night. However, I did get in some good exercise.
My inlaws came down yesterday for a visit. With all of the rain we've had lately, the river has really been up. That means the lake is up. Areas north of us have still been getting a lot of rain, so they have the gates open at Kaw. We took a drive down to check it out. What the heck does any of this have to do with my exercise? Well once we got to the Dam, we hiked up a bunch of steps to get to where we could see better. Oh man that was a killer butt workout! Then of course we had to do the same to get back to the car. Then before we were leaving, Little Diva was to take this other path. So we hiked up it. My buns were really feelin it!!
Even with that exercise, I still wanted to run. Only thing was that I had a little problem. Hubby was out at the river and I was home with Little Diva. It was getting late and I can't just leave her home alone... so I told her she could ride her bike along with me. Wow. I didn't realize how much work that would be for me. Haha. First, I tried to jog as she rode along with me. But it was had for me to pay attention to her, watch for traffic and run. So I ended up walking most of it. We went up to the Dollar General to turn in our Redbox movie then set off on my route. Even with walking and having the Little Diva with me, I managed to get my full route in and even a bit more!
1.51 miles
30 minutes 26 seconds
Not a great time, but I managed almost half of a mile longer than before! Now keep in mind that this time includes waiting at the Redbox and waiting for traffic while trying to cross Main street. And having Little Diva on her bike.
I have come to the conclusion that I need a bike of my own for nights like this when hubbybis gone and I still want to get some good exercise in. Maybe if I beg the hubby and tell him it would be something I could do with Little Diva and exercise at the same time...
Time to beg, Chubby Diva. Time to beg.
