Annnnd, sometimes I go up and down these:
I guess I've gotten a bit of an upper-body workout as well, with the lifting and moving of boxes...based on how sore I was for a few days, I'd say that I need to pay more attention to that part of my body when I workout - or maybe just not help anyone move again, haha!
I'm traveling home today, and then I'll leave again early Friday morning for a USAFit organizer's conference in Utah for the weekend. Kind of ironic that I'll be going into that not having run in two weeks, but hey - life happens. It's all good; I know that temporary things happen to get in the way of regular exercise, and I'm not stressing over this. I'll be back to normal (well, as close to normal as I can get, lol) next week.
Moving is exercise too (so is housework for that matter). So I'd say you worked out a lot this last week.
ReplyDeleteHow cool that you are going to the conference. Are you going to organize this next year again? And what's the conference about? Please spend a post on that when you come back if you will. Have fun at it and safe travels home.
Yes, I'll be the organizer again, with Amy being the organizer-in-training, which is why she's going to the conference with me. I'm planning on doing a post about our trip, for sure. :)
DeleteI LOVE ME THE FREE STAIRMASTER!!
ReplyDeleteok love is an exaggeration but we have a ton of those outdoors in our hood...when I walk the dog.
I wish there were outdoor stairs for our land workouts...they really work the lower body!
DeleteLOL, I think Ann Lamott said that after you turn 50 you should always say NO to anyone who wanted help moving! Heck yeah, you got a TON of functional exercise in this week.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you are leaving again so soon, but this next trip might be a bit more relaxing?
Honestly, if he was just moving in the Dallas area, I wouldn't have helped. But I couldn't resist a new state!
DeleteI have 4 flights of stairs I have to climb when it is laundry day!! So the free stairmaster puts a workout on ya!!
ReplyDeleteI kept telling myself "it's a workout" every time I made another trip up!
DeleteSafe travels home and to Utah! I count the stress of travel as exercise EVERY time, double when it involves airports :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yeah, airport travel is something else. I'm getting quite familiar with the DFW terminals!
DeleteHey, free stairs are definitely a work out! Have safe travels Shelley!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Sam really appreciates all the stair climbs you did! Poor Paco, you're barely going to be home and then off again. I'm pretty sure he's not going to like that! Safe travels and enjoy your conference!
ReplyDeleteYay for stairs! You sure have been traveling a lot. You need to get a little further north, though. Just sayin'
ReplyDeleteI know! There's a train station in Raleigh...that could be a fun adventure heading north. :)
DeleteLooks like I have these same stairs at my house and I always mean to utilize them more as a work out tool, but then I don't. Someday I will see the value in those stairs...lol
ReplyDeleteAnd you are probably more sore from what you did to...than had you been running every day!!!
