100 Burpees...Again.

So, as you know, I'm up in Erie, away from my husband, home, gym, and routine. I'm back where I developed bad habits in what I'd consider not to be the healthiest of environments (tied for the 10th most obese city in the nation) or weather conditions. I am with some of my family, but in a different situation than normal due to my dad being in a nursing home (his chosen route) for rehabilitation post-knee replacement.

At any rate, I had an unhealthy late lunch which is still in my stomach, didn't work out in the AM again, and missed the EWOD (35 minutes of running a 1/4 mi weighted as many times as you could at Green Hill Park) again.

I was going to run, but the 37 degree temps didn't sound so enticing, especially when I still feel the food in my throat from lunch. Ugh.

So I decided to take the 100 burpee challenge again - this time in my parent's basement instead of our townhouse kitchen.

The results were poor thanks to my bad lunch lunch, stress levels, a moving rug beneath my feet (the slippery cement didn't fare any better for the 10 I did on it) and probably my overall weight and fitness level.




Boo. Hiss. I felt like crap. My crop pants again were an issue of adjustment (pulling them up) and my hair ended up flying in my face for much of the latter half. Oh, and of course my hormone levels due to this being the oh-so-sacred week all women get to enjoy once a month. Shit.

Really hoping to actually get to a gym tomorrow or at least work out in the AM. I feel a bit lost and upset. Not only due to my inability to do what I wish I could be doing but also about my aging parents. It's tough being in my early 30's with much older parents who are ailing and unhappy and unhealthy. I'll stop there because I don't want this to be a sob fest, but just trying to establish my overall current demeanor and situation.

Off to the shower and to babysit Lottie and Charlie with mama.
