| Three mile reverse church loop. Not sure where else to run around here yet. I need to charge my watch and hold myself accountable for any walk breaks I take, but for now just getting out is a plus.

| Millau Viaduct Bridge treadmill ifit workout. First half was at a -3 decline, and then the second half was at a 15% incline and evened out to 2% the last quarter mile or so. 23:50 total time, 423 calories, 449 elevation gain. 9:16 avg pace.
Still haven't lost any weight. Hopefully I am gaining muscle and the weight will come off soon!
Doing Holly's workout this evening with Cameron.
10 pushups
10 squat jumps
10 lunges
10 good mornings
10 mountain climbers
30 sec rest. Do as many sets as you can in 12 minutes.
7 rounds in 12:15. When I hit the 12 minute mark I only had mountain climbers left. I haven't done many of month 1's workouts, but I did do this one initially and felt much better this time around. Girl pushups for all rounds which is why I think I was able to move a bit quicker through the set, and jumping off the ground squat jumps. Got my husband in on the action.

| Treadmill run with ifit. Snowbird Resort, UT. Kinda fun to be running down the slopes with the skiers and boarders in mid 60 degree weather and no ice. While watching Downton Abbey.
Most of the run was at a -3 decline. Wish I could see this before I start a workout so I would know what to expect. Wishing there was a little bit of hill make me work harder, but overall it was nice to feel fast for a run. 5 miles straight without stopping.
4.92 miles in 38:05, 7:44 pace. 57 ft elevation gain, 712 calories.

| Warmup
20 burpees
20 up and down planks (on each arm)
100 squats
100 jump ropes
50 bench dips
50 lunges
In any order, just as long as you do them all eventually. For time.
Finished in 9:57. Hopefully I can get faster at this! The bench dips and squats were hardest for me. Nice to get a little cross train workout when I have a busy day. Can't make an excuse for a 10-15 minute workout.
And taking 3 kids 4 and under to the grocery store has to count for something, right?

| Redwood National Forest run on ifit. Unexpected incline the whole time. I would say 80 percent of the run was above 11% incline. Good run for me even if I had to slow the pace due to the incline.

| Disneyland with girls.
Holly workout in the am: Warm up do 10 squats 50 jump ropes 10 line touches (a line touch is there and back)
Workout A
set your timer to beep on 30 second intervals-----every 30 seconds do ONE MORE line touch with a continuous clock (yes that was confusing so keep on reading)…..
When you're done with that rest for 4 minutes
Here is workout B.
Basically you're going to do the same thing again BUT you're doing squats instead… start with as many squats as line touches you got up to and add 2 for each interval…. example if you got up to 6 line touches you will start your 30 second interval with 6 squats. Your next interval you will do 8, then the next 10 etc….. until you are unable to complete all the squats required in the round. GET AFTER IT!!!!
8 line touch, 22 squat. Ouch!

First 3 miles averaged almost 11 min pace due to 10-13% incline, then sped up to 8mph from 3-5.6 on -3 decline for the most part.

| Holly workout. Just plain worn out today. Not sure if I am coming down with the cold that Cameron has had, or if it has just been a long week.
Warmup.
As many rounds as I could in 12 minutes.
8 pike pushups
20 situps
20 squat jumps

Only got in 4 sets, and my pike pushups were definitely modified.

| Went out to do a 4 mile loop but it ended up being a 5 mile loop. I actually felt pretty good. I can tell I am slowly getting back into shape. I am mainly running off feel and not worrying about pace for a while. I figure it is better to run and not stop than to run faster and have to stop every mile. So 5 miles without stopping! (I guess I did stop and wait for a stoplight to change once).
43:00 overall

| Church loop. Later start, but nice to get a few miles in before heading to Disneyland again. Gorgeous morning, and it feels so good to run in shorts and a tank top and smell the orange blossoms. Enjoying this southern California living for a few years, and taking advantage of it all we can, cause we know we won't be here long term.

| Back to the treadmill runs. 3.1 mile run in Chalet Road, Alpine Meadows, CA. No idea exactly where this run is. But it was a easy mostly downhill with just a couple inclines. 8:20 pace. 25:45 overall time. 53 elevation gain. 379 calories.
Decided to get 1 more mile in. Ran in Antartica. Got .25 in before I had to go put the binky back in the baby, and my 2 year old turned off the treadmill. So once it rebooted I started the mile again. Completely flat mile. Ifit won't give my my overall stats, but I had to try to do it fast because my baby was crying. So about 7:30 overall I think.

Line touches (30 sec)
20 v-ups
Line touches
20 plank up and down
Line touches
