Guess what's next on my adventure?

Man VS Food. The food lost

Read how he did it.

This use to be one of my favorite shows.  

Big boy shoes.

I finally got a pair of big boy running shoes this week.  WOW!!!! what a difference. I wore them to boxing class on Friday.  My shins still hurt but , they felt much better. I had a slow workout week.  I did not make it to the gym as much as I wanted to.  But that goes back to W.I.N.  (what's importance now)  We are working on getting into a new routine at home.   Dance, Gymnastics, school events,homework, work and my play practice.  That is just to list a few.  I need to hit it hard this week.  I have a goal I want to reach by the end of the month.  I am not going to announce that goal yet.  I want it to be a surprise when I do.

I need to mention a friend of mine that rescued my boxing class.   We needed a heavy bag.  I figured how hard could that be to find.  I know people who have boxed or kicked boxed.  Well none of them had a bag.  I was in awe and amazement when Belinda Burkett had one. Watch out,  she is a lot tougher than she looks.  It also makes me wonder what else she has hiding in her basement. 

On a final non workout note.  Week 2 of play practice is done.  I think I am getting the hang of it.  Still learning my way around a stage.  but it is coming together.  I will be play Officer Klein in the Black Dirt Theater production of Arsenic and Old Lace.  Come check it out when it opens.  

We will be right back after this brief message

You may have notice that there are Ads on my blog now.  I have accept them to make some extra money to keep going on my adventure.  My six months will be up in January.  I feel it is important that I continue with Alex.  I am hoping the Ads will cover this expense.

I will keep an eye out for Ads that I do not think are appropriate for my blog. 

Thanks for following me and my adventures.

Weekend fun

Janell and I spent a weekend of fun in Bayfield Wisconsin with our friends Bill & Karen.  Lots of food and fun.  I think I did pretty good.  It was not a matter of not eating what I wanted,  but how much to eat.   We discovered a great new treat. Chocolate covered banana chips.  

We spent the part of the day on Madeline  Island.  I had a Great Lake trout lunch at a place called the beach club.  Next time we go we want to rent bikes so we can cover more of the island.  

It was great to be able to walk around without being out of breath and not being  tired.  Seeing great results

Y challenge starts Monday.

I made it through my first week of boxing class.  Shin splints flared up again. We came up with some alternative exercises to do.  I will keep push and not stop.   Looking forward to class on Tuesday .  I think?

Y challenge starts Monday.  I have 5 weeks to complete what a iron man tri athlete does in 12 hours.  Both Janell and I are going to participate in the challenge.   

Try to find your own challenge for the next 5 weeks.  Let me known you results.

Super Hero's at the gym?

Yesterday I signed up for a 7 week circuit boxing class 3 times a week.  Today I signed up for the YMCA Lazy Person's Triathlon.  I have 6 weeks to complete all of the required events of the Iron man Triathlon.  If I keep this up I am going to have to buy some neon green or yellow running shoes.  Under Armor or other compression wear will become a part of my daily wardrobe.  My main nutrition will come from GNC in tubs bigger than most 4 year olds.  I think I may be become a fitness fanatic.

I promise no matter what.  I will not go to the gym dressed like a super hero.  I have seen 3 out of the 5 shirts worn at the gym.  These were men in their forties.


                 

Why don't we ever see these Super Hero's at the gym

Just wondering?
