I signed up for Whole Family's 30 day burpee challenge. Every day for a month, I need to do 50 burpees, 50 hip-lifts, 1 minute plank, 1 minute left side plank and 1 minute right side plank. Ummm.... OUCH.

Planks are one of the ideal core exercises for repairing this damage, so this is a good fitness challenge to not only get me moving and sweating again, but also to be consistent in working to fix that so I can be
Also, I've always wanted to be a runner. Certain physical limitations (malformations in my feet) have held me back, but so has the combination of my weight and my joint pain. With no more joint pain and far less excess weight, I'm ready to try again! I'm hoping to hit the trail tomorrow morning if I can get my tired behind up early enough. (Did I mention Music Man got me up this morning at 4:30am? I may sleep in tomorrow if given the chance...) I'll keep you posted on my progress as I work through my learn-to-run program. (Unless, Rebecca, you have a better one to suggest?)
Breakfast - A fried egg and prosciutto sandwich on a bun.
Lunch - Leftover pork roast, guacamole and sliced tomato on another bun.
Supper - Italian sausages, grilled peppers and red onion, and a bowl of sweet curried cauliflower soup.
Snacks - A banana muffin, a snack ball, and a wedge of cantaloupe.
