Zumba Time!

I did Jillian Michael's workout this morning.
My daughter suggested a Zumba Class tonight! I heard they can burn up to 1000 calories in an hour. But, who could go an hour? So, I gave it a try! Boy, talk about fast on your feet, I couldn't even think about arm movements, I was to busy looking at everyone's feet movements and trying to keep up. I was so exhausted after 30 minutes, but I kept trying to keep up and finally it was over! I made the whole hour!
Will I do it again? Probably, since they didn't even laugh at the funny old lady in the back row trying to keep up with everyone.

Outside 5K Trial Run (Walk)

For my Cardio day,I went outside to see how well I can handle a 5K walk/run. I started running and after only 1 block my legs felt like jelly. So, I realized if I was going to finish the 5K, I was going to have to walk it. I started swinging my arms to keep up a fast pace. I'm moving along, all proud of myself for going fast, and this guys comes toward me going in the opposite direction on the trail. He passes me and in about 5 minutes later he passes me again going in the same direction. I looked at his pace. He didn't look like he was going at a fast pace at all! But, he past me with ease! I guess just because I was working hard at it and breathing hard, it doesn't mean I'm going fast!
Well, I still finish!
