exercise 3 times a week

I’ve been walking with another teacher Tuesdays and Thursdays. And on Saturday I did 1 1/2 miles on the treadmill and today (Wed.) I did 1.75 miles (31 minutes).

Did 20 minutes on Tuesday…hoping to do at least that tomorrow morning.

I started up again on the treadmill and did it twice last week and twice this week. Slower than before, but at least I’m on there. each time b/n 15 and 30 minutes.

The fun thing is, everyone’s been complimenting me on losing weight! I went to weigh myself and I’m down to a weight I thought I wouldn’t see again! (I like not having a scale at home so that I don’t obsess over it)

For the rest of the summer I never got back on the treadmill :(.
I was away again for 3 weeks and I did do things like walk on the beach and ride a bike, but not much.

I went to Santo Domingo to study Spanish, so it wasn’t really a vacation, but it was so much fun, that it was! I walked ALOT! From where I stayed, I took a “carro publico” across the bridge and then walked 8 blocks to school. Then after school I would walk all over the Zona Colonial, and later walked the 8 blocks back to the street with the bridge.
Then, by the second week one of the students found a gimnasio 2 blocks from the school and they only charged about $10 for a week membership. I went there 3 times, and hour each time, they had a nice elliptical machine, treadmill and stationery bikes (other stuff too that I didn’t use) and I joined in on a kick boxing class for a little while. Some girls and I even went to a resort for one night and there was a “fitness room”, actually it was not good and not air conditioned, but I worked out a little. The resort was nice and probably just bcs it’s so new, they haven’t done much w/ the workout room yet.

Did 3k in 30 minutes.

Today I was able to do 2 miles (more than 3k).

Monday is the 3-month deadline of the goals I set in February. I’m pretty happy with the results.

On Thursday we had off from school and I did 5k. Hurray!

For the past few weeks I’ve played soccer several times. It’s been fun. I think I get more exercise on the treadmill, but It’s been good to have variety.

Yesterday and today I was able to do 1.25 miles in about 20 minutes.
