Fitness Friday 5/27/11

Phew!  Time flies!

We were at a wedding in upstate NJ two weekends ago.  Saturday - Monday.  I had some free time Saturday after the rehearsal luncheon.  The resort we stayed at included free gym access.  WHAT A GYM.  I went down Saturday night and did a Week 1 session.  WOO HOO!  The session went great and it was even EASIER!

Monday was a recovery day for me (Bay Breezes with vodka can be tough the next day). It also rained like crazy. My hip was a bit sore (heels/dancing/rain), but manageable.

Tuesday Mr. ST and I were puppy sitting the huskies.  It also rained ALL DAY.  Wet dog = stinky couch.  I started to have more major pain in my hip.  I also sat on a hard stool in one of  the science classrooms at school and I heard my hip pop.  Never good.

Wednesday - GYM.
I needed to get a workout in at least twice this week.  Today was the first day I had time after work.  I dragged my big old bag in, changed, warmed up and stretched.  I got about a third of the way through the workout, but my hip was killing me so I reduced it to a walk.

Thursday 5/19 - Monday 5/23 - Since my hip was agonizingly painful, I took a few days off. Sheesh.  By Monday afternoon it was feeling pretty decent.  I didn't want to push it, so I gave myself one more day.

Tuesday - Went for a light walk to stretch out the hip.  It was nice to get out between all the rain storms.

Wednesday 5/25 - I Went for a RUUUUN.  I finished up Week 1.  I think I'm safe enough to move on to Week 2 for Friday.  It was smooth and easy.  Bridesmaid NM and I then went to the beach.  We combed the beach, found some sea glass and walked about 3 or so miles.  Niiiiice.  Hip feels good!!
