Personal Best

[days_unfolding]

I need to go to the store to get food because realistically, I won't grill until the weekend. Soup would do. I'm trying to decide whether to go after work or take a nap and go later. If I go earlier, I could watch swimming. But I'm tired. I want to stay home tomorrow to watch the women's gymnastics. My life is revolving around the Olympics right now.

Speaking of exercise, I'm thinking that I should get back to exercising regularly. The Olympics are inspiring me :) I need to dig out my dumbbells and do some weight training. I need to find my weight training over 40+ book (done). There's been some studies saying that weight training can help you lose weight as well as aerobic exercise. I also have the pass to a gym in Lincoln, so I need to go over there and see if I can get a code to go there. My knee has been bothering me, and I need to do exercises to strengthen the muscles around it. I used to have steps to use; did I get rid of them? Someone is selling one in Bloomington. Hmm, my health insurance is having a challenge to add one new exercise to your fitness every day. Do I want to join that?

Ran out and got soda and some food at Dollar Tree and dashed back to watch the Olympics. I can't remember a year when I've gotten so into it. Lots of great swimming races. I also did my knee exercises (or at least the ones that I can do it home). One of them kind of hurt, so I think that I've injured my knee a little. It has a sore spot. I also tried to do exercises with resistance bands only to find that they are a little long for me.

It's gotten late.
