Benefits of working in D.C.

I walked down the ten blocks to the National Mall and ate my lunch on a park bench between the Washington Monument and the Capitol building. Definitely have to do this again. It was much better than sitting at my desk surfing the internet. Wheee!

Exercise Journal

45 minutes of mowing the lawn tonight. I think it was over 80 degrees, so I sweated like a pig in heat. I think that means I burned more calories then if I hadn't sweated so much.

Exercise Journal

Went to the gym yesterday with [livejournal.com profile] jd7a. Did the rowing machine for 10 minutes, and some legs and arms weights. Had to stop early because I hadn't eaten lunch and was getting woozy, Will know for next time.

Exercise Journal

Walked with [livejournal.com profile] jd7a 2.3 miles in 1 hour and 4 minutes.

Not our best effort, although we did supplement with some hopscotch in an elementary school playground and a little bit of tether ball. Let me tell you, tether ball in the dark is a much different experience than tether ball in the daylight. It can really get competitive. And dangerous. The ball, while never particularly colorful in the daytime, is pretty much invisible at night. So, getting whacked in the arm, the body, or the head is not really all that unusual. I think the game ended in a draw. Although I was always unclear on scoring in tether ball. I think it exists. I'm just not sure how it goes. So, one or the other of us could have won. Or both. I don't know.

I do know that I kicked ass in hopscotch. Bring on the eight year old girls. I'm ready for them!

Exercise Journal

1 hour of hitting golf balls at a driving range during lunch.

I'm not sure if it counts because I rarely got my golf balls to go further than the divots.

Walked 3.857 miles with [livejournal.com profile] jd7a in 1 hour, 23 minutes.

Found a small neighborhood park nearby that had a good walking trail through it. I think that's why we were able to walk faster tonight.

Reminder: Before our next walk, we should stretch first.

Does mowing the lawn in 90 degree weather count as exercise?

If so, 1 hour of lawn mowing.
