Tonight, I completed a marathon…an EA active one, that is. I had all intentions of going to a gym up the street from us for a BodyPump class, (I got a free one-day pass at a work health fair awhile back) but traffic put the brakes on that idea. So, I opted for Plan B — another Wii EA Active Personal Trainer workout. I’m still sore from Sunday’s 40-minute session! I scrolled through all the workouts, and stumbled across the “Big Daddy” of the bunch — the 51-minute marathon. That’s 42 exercises, including lots of running, squats that made my legs burn so much I needed a fire extinguisher, inline skating with jumps, arm work and oh so much more. I was heaving and pouring sweat by the time I crossed the virtual finish line on the track — my last exercise of the session. I seriously wanted to quit about halfway through, but I didn’t. And I’m really proud of that. I’ve come a long way in four months!

I’m also glad that I stayed in my calorie range today with these tasty meals and snacks:

Even after all this food, I was still under my calorie range for the day. What?! So, I fixed that with a bag of 100-cal popcorn.

I’m going to try with all my might to get up early in the morning to work out. Tomorrow night, I’m having a gals dinner with my dear friend, Sara Ashly, and I don’t want to cut the catching up short to get home to exercise.

Night, night, all!
