Elite  4372    Connecticut |  Subject: RE: Cold Turkeys - November ChallengeI found the pool today!  I haven't been to the pool since May??? And boy did my arms feel it. I only had time for a quick set of 500 meters before I had to run to lunch with my friends. But it did feel good to get in the water and I need to make sure I get down there once a week. I have lost a lot of fitness.  |

So, i went for a run this morning, outside, while JJ was getting ready for work. Not 1/2 mile from the house, I slipped on a patch of ice fell and heard a crack. Yup, I broke my ankle. I have a follow up later this week with an ortho surgeon as I dislocated my ankle and broke my tibia and fibula. So... I'm going to have to drop out of the challenge. Or at least adjust my goals after the ortho appt. I could probably still do some core work or modified yoga or pilates. I'm just so upset. Oh, and in quite a bit of pain. Oh no! Broken bones are teh suxxor. Take care and let us know what the ortho has to say. |

I have lost a lot of fitness. I decided to add a swimming goal to this months challenge to help motivate me to get to the pool. I haven't been in the water since early Sept. Here's hoping I don't sink! |

Master 1817 Lafayette, IN | Subject: RE: Cold Turkeys - November Challenge It was another georgeous fall day here in Indiana. 60s and sunny. I hauled the tri bike out and actually road outdoors. Only a month off from riding and I've lost a ton of fitness. I felt like a beginner out there! |

I can't remember what it stands for but it is a functional workout for your whole body utilizing a strap that hangs from the ceiling. Lots of core stabilization stuff. I hope I'm able to pick up my baby tomorrow. |

I was pretty beat after my set of 500 though. I could have used some floaties. When I got to the pool, it was overrun by noodle ladies. Ugh. Their class was ending as we were coming. After I finished chatting with the lifeguard for a few minutes, I walk into the locker room. Nothing like a bunch of half naked noodle ladies to greet me after a few months of absence from the pool. |
