7 day x 30min Cardio Challenge!!!!!

[Jcsgt]

Anybody else playing with a HR monitor?

VERY fun toys. I started with the Polar and now have the Garmin. You can actualy set a little beep for when you drop out of or go above your target zone. Very satisfying after a ride or something to see the duration, av. HR, etc.

I haven't, but I can see where it might be useful for me. When I'm doing cardio, I have a hard time calculating my heart rate in my head. Alarms are good.

I was feeling sort of bummed out that I didn't do my walk yesterday because I was so tired.

Then I realized, the reason I was tired was that I technically did get my 30 minute workout in yesterday... I worked from 9 pm Friday night until 3 am Saturday morning getting our network punched down in the new church buidling. This involved hauling ladders, compressors, paint cans, plaster, and other assorted construction materials out of where we were working to the hallway, and then back when we were done.

That definitely was more than 30 minutes where I had my heart rate up

Phew!

I'd say that definitely counts.

i agree!!!

i must admit, i went into the bathroom today and thought WOW when i saw how sparkling white and clean it was... even the grout is brillant white... 3hrs of cleaning was well worth the efforts from yesterday

Cooltech... you jogging??? wowowowowowowowowowowwwwww

tomorrow im going to mail you your winnning 10lb looser aussie tee.... maybe i need to send you a size smaller?

way to go... be careful but keep going!

I've been walking for more than two months now. Just a little faster than I can walk. Comes to about 8km per hour. I just can't walk that fast... lol

Thank you for the tee. I like them in the larger size. It converts to a singlet much easier, and I will be able to wear it for my workouts. It's 80 F (26.6 C) here. By the time I start sweatting, I need the larger shirts to keep the chafing away (that could be a TOS violation :grin: )

Oh, yeah, forgot to mention that I had to chase somebody at work, earlier (yes, I caught him), and I didn't die. That has to count for something!

Man I hate foot pursuits!
