Condo weekend 2012

We met up with Nic and Kim for a weekend of fun at the condo in Redmond. This was an epic weekend of laughing and game-playing. We also might have had a couple drinks.

We are just going to repeat this as often as possible for as long as it's warm out. I'll probably have a summer of pictures that look exactly like this.

Happy 4th of July!

Photobucket John and Shannon trivia fact: We both have these shoes, purchased in the early 90s and for some reason, we both packed them around as we moved around. It was funny when we met to have this in common. However, we can't find John's right now, so he had to pose with a real flag like a sucker. Photobucket

Tease and Toners make the rockin' world go 'round

POWER JUNE!

I really like the months that I teach Body Blitz and this time I decided to take it a step further and throw some long runs into the mix to see if I could hang all month.  I also decided to stop eating Twizzler Bites (OMG I crave them every day!).  Lastly, I started eating more fish.  Tuna for lunches and on Sundays, John grills me some salmon that I can use for salads at the beginning of the week.  I have to say that I think that the salmon made a difference.  I had great recovery times and no hindrances because of hip or knee pain.

For fun I kept track of everything I did. My little morning jogs don't really count as workouts (note that's 1.5-which I think is even a stretch, not 15 :)) but I do them to get my body going and wake up my brain. 
BB=Body Blitz (my morning cardio class)
TnT=Tease and Tone (my evening dance class)
CF=Cardio Funk (dance class)
F&F=Flex and Funk (dance class)

I don't generally believe in weighing myself, so I don't know if I lost any pounds or not (my guess is not).  However, I will say that my problem area wasn't much of a problem and I love the way I feel after a month of really great workouts.  I think I'll do it again in August :)
