Had to Work Out

I don't know if it was the dreaded spring forward to save a bit of daylight that has thrown of much of my week or just trying to hammer through my current introduction to preclinical experiences class, whatever it is, this week has been rough on getting in some routine exercising.  This morning I was going to come and get started with my video watching for class and decided I needed to do a little workout instead.  So I ran through some gut busting exercises and then jumped on the elliptical and ran 5 miles.  It was welcome, it was good.  Later this evening I took a little break from the studies and headed out on a bike ride/scooter ride with the boys.  We had a good trip.  At one point I was riding my bike up a steep incline as fast as I could in an effort to beat the boys to the top.  We did it several times and it got the old legs burning.  Fantastic.  I will probably have to do that again. Hill sprints get the heart pumping.  Well, it's not enough just to work out, one has to consider what they eat as well.  I remember when I was having lunch once with President and Sister Sweeney in Florida and Sister Sweeney mentioned that how we eat in our 40's determines how we live in our 50's.  I'm trying to eat right Sister Sweeney.  Tonight I tried a little zucchini wrapped, riced cauliflower & sweet potato, rotisserie chicken, avocado salsa topped dish.  It was actually pretty dang good.  Well, I will do my best to be consistent in working out and in my eating habits.
