a different kind of dirty 30

my friend nabum, who became a mom in october and looks fabulous as always, invited a bunch of us to join her in a 30-workouts-in-30-days challenge for the month of june.  since i've been finding it a little tough to get myself motivated lately, i thought it was a great idea.

of course, i didn't sign up until june 2nd...and i'd taken a rest day the day before.  oops.  but the girls and i had gone to disneyland (shocker, i know), so i'm totally counting the five hours of walking around pushing the bean in a stroller.  it's still activity, right?

saturday's exercise was that 5K i did.  and my stepdad emailed me the funny photo i mentioned yesterday, taken as i tossed that goody bag towards my cheering squad on the downhill start.  maybe it isn't as funny to you, but it still makes me laugh.


on sunday i yoga'd along with jillian michaels via my yoga meltdown DVD.  i love that workout - it's a great strengthening and stretching session that still makes me sweat my ass off.  and yesterday was fit club with my friends kelley and mr. lilcee.

i haven't gone on a run since saturday, but since it's tuesday and the bean isn't in school today, i'm kinda stuck at home.  luckily, the hub recently made a purchase for his man cave - one that'll help me on days just like this:


yup, that's right.  nestled in the corner behind the IL's ATV is one very fancy schmancy elliptical machine.  it's really smooth, has a place to plug in my iPod if i want, and even has a built-in fan.  for the sweaty messes that the hub and i both end up after a workout, this is fabulous.  and i get to watch tv while i get my exercise in.

ah, the man cave.  despite the lingering scent of cigar smoke, it's gonna be my best friend in the upcoming weeks.  wish me luck as i attempt to conquer this new challenge.  i'm already missing my rest days.

heading out to the big apple

like most of our best vacations, our christmastime trip to NYC was kind of a last-minute decision.  i don't even think there were six we...
