So my new trainer had me try out this new (to me) piece of gym equipment where you can do a variety of things but he tried to get me to do vertical knee raises and I completely failed LOL I have now challenged myself to be able to accomplish this task by the end of September. It is so hard because I have hardly any really good upper body strength. Hubby can hop on it and go to town and not only do knee lifts but leg lifts too. I have a really long way to go! Have you ever seen this vertical knee raise machine?
I have tried it a few times now and just have to laugh every time because I really do look like a total fool on it HA HA! It’s going to be a major challenge. Please send good thoughts my way because I’ll really need them LOL
I have been in a poopy mood lately when it comes to running, weight loss, etc. and just need to get out of the funk. I am most likely going to have to face the fact that I won’t be able to run the 1/2 marathon and it wasn’t for lack of trying. I’m pretty sure I’m going to go in the race to run the 1/2 marathon BUT I am going to find out where the 10k runners will break off just in case I’m having issues at that point. So a definite run/walk is in my future and I’ll mostly be walking due to the breathing issues. No worries, I’m just bummed about it but want to try to get something out of it because we did pay over EACH to participate. We’ll see how it all plays out! And it’s not until Dec. so I still have some time to figure it all out.
