  • This check-in is for September 11th – 17th.
  • I’m about 5 miles from finishing Crater Lake on Walking 4 Fun.
  • The air quality where I live has been really bad due to all of the fires.  It started improving just as I came down with an ear infection.  Needless to say, I didn’t do much walking or exercising of any kind this week.

  • This check-in is for August 14th – 20th.
  • I bought a stepper to help me out with meeting my fitness goals.  I walk as much as I can throughout the day, and then when I get home I get on the stepper to get some more steps in before dinner.  So far, it’s helping, and while I’m still not back up to 40K, I did increase my steps by about 3K compared to last week.

  • This check-in is for August 7th – 13th.
  • My step count is alarmingly low this week.  I don’t think that will improve much over the next week since there is a heatwave hitting this afternoon.

  • This check-in is for July 24th – 30th.
  • I went to Lake Tahoe this week with the Boyfriend and a couple of friends.  We all needed a break from the craziness of city life.  I got a lot of fresh air, a lot of exercise from walking around, and ate a lot of great food.  I also got sun burnt, and will be spending this weekend slathering myself with aloe.

  • This check-in is for July 17th – 23rd.
  • This was a rough week.  My cat, Dresden, got sick, and I had to take him to the vet.  I felt tired all week, and was dealing with allergies.  My feet and legs have been hurting thanks to plantar faciitis and ITBS, and I had to go back to doing my physical therapy exercises instead of the workouts I had planned.  Hopefully next week will be better.
