Long-winded Blogger Here

In the words of Natasha, I write "the really long blogs." Ah, yes, that's me. I try not to be so wordy. Really, I do. I did notice that the Gazelle blogs all have a distinct personality. We have me, the Long-winded Blogger. Then there's "Just the facts, Ma'am" and "Esoteric Philosopher" and "All About Me." Of course there are others. I do think if one read a Blogazelle post out-of-context, it would not be that hard to know which blogger it is writing. If you don't know what I'm talking about, you can find the Blogazelles here.

Saturday, I ran about 7.5 with Yvette and Gayatri. It was hot since we didn't start till almost 9:30am. It wasn't the easiest long run, but it wasn't my worst. We ran well and finished off with a lovely soak in Barton Springs. While we were running, David had the boys at the Dog-Area just outside the pool, and he cut his foot somehow. He was fairly worried that it would affect his running. So far, it hasn't, but he tends to not mention pain in a whiny-complaining way like I do. ;o)

Monday's workout was Circuit, which is always one of my favorites. Natasha came to our class, and I got to meet her. Hi, Natasha! We did tons of medicine ball drills, but no plank. I'd do tons of medicine ball drills any day if it meant no plank. Plank doesn't really hurt my abs. I hurt everywhere else, especially my arms and back. Yes, I know. I'm weak in the "cohr."

That's all I've got for you. I'm purposely leaving out tons of details, so I won't be the Long-winded Blogger this time around. Never fear though; the blah-blahing will return soon enough. I can't control myself and just type and type, blah, blah, blah.

  • I for one am glad Natasha is sore after being knocked down to the ground by her during the wonderful medicine ball time.

  • What is the plank?

  • Christine,

    Have you never done plank?! You are so lucky...

    With plank, you are in a push-up position with your elbows/forearms on the ground, and your weight is resting on forearms and feet. Your back is straight and your butt down. You are off the ground, of course, and you hold this position for at least a minute. Ouch!
