Courtney26's Journal, 04 August 2009

I've been hitting the treadmill hard the last several months and my knees are beginning to feel the pain. I have switched to the eliptical this week to give my knees a break. I'm not sweating as much on the eliptical and I'm not getting the lung burn that I have come to enjoy from the treadmill, but I don't want to call it quits on cardio in order to heal. I sure do hope my knees start to feel better soon so I can get back on track via the treadmill

I admire anyone who runs on the treadmill! I am still to chicken to do it Court! I will run on solid ground; however, I want to run on the tread. BTW, that was cute about the burn. I am glad I am not the only one who enjoys stuff like that. I enjoy being sore. I like it when I move or bend how it hurts good! LOL byw what was the other wine that you suggested? I asked if anyone had heard of chocolate gum? Spledid reserched it and found so drink that has gum in it. How about that? LOL

Butterfly..the wine was Lambrusco. You can buy it dry or sweet/fruity. It all depends on the brand. I'm not much of a wine drinker, but I've served more bottles and glasses than I care to admit! Ohh the college years! I saw the comment about the gum drink and I was gonna say that I thought it sounded repulsive, but I didn't know if splendid was in a sensative mood...wanted to keep it light and positive!

LOL yeah I don't know about that gum drink? But I think Splendid is the best...he is our researcher! Name it and he will findout about it! So are you running yet?

Girl! I ran 4 days this week Monday thru Thursday. 3 miles nightly at a pretty brisk pace for me (6.5 on the treadmill). I am embracing this new healthy lifestyle and it is truely changing every acpect of my life. If I would have only started sooner. I love going to the gym, and how exercise makes me feel! I would have laughed at you if you told me those words would come out of my mouth, or thru the fingers in this case. The support and commrodery (sp?) that I feel from you all makes it more bareable, when time get trying. Thanks Butterfly..and thanks everyone else too. You all are the bestest!
