I started week two of C25K this week. So far it’s noticeably easier this time around and I feel that’s a testament to how my level of fitness has increased over the years. It’s also a huge help that I’ve kept up with a daily yoga practice. My legs were sore last week but daily stretching with yoga, plus a longer class on Thursday night, has really helped make the soreness barely noticeable. This week I also upped my ...

I’ve also been keeping up with my Zuzka workouts and am about to do #50 ...

But by the end of the day it will be 900, even though I’ll be kicking and screaming the whole way. I am SORE!!! Yesterday I completed Zuzka’s ZWOW #43 (on top of the 90 burpees for the day) and it was a total killer. She apparently recorded it right before Thanksgiving so ...

Oh, burpees, you’re the exercise everyone loves to hate! Eight days ago we started a new ...
