    Warning to self. Be careful of overdoing. On Tuesday after grandson left, I power washed our deck (about 450 sq ft). Had to move and clean furniture as well. Took about four hours. Was over-tired afterwards to the point where I could not get to sleep. Today (Friday), I think I have enough energy to try a light workout in the pool.

    Since our return from Europe, I have been swimming 2-3 times weekly. I'm now up to 3x250 in about 20 minutes. And wouldn't you know, the pool will be closed for two weeks starting next Monday. Goals are to be doing 6x250 by September 30 and 1,500 yards non-stop by Christmas. Hope to be able to swim full distance in about 30 minutes.

    I know Rebekah and Shiela are training for the Columbus Marathon.

    What's everyone else up to??

    Hi!
    Just read through all 48 pages of this thread!
    I just started doing some running again, which I did a lot before getting sick and diagnosed. Feels amazing too finally feel well enough to go working out.
    Before all this crazy stuff happened I could easily do a 10K in under an hour. I think I want to either enter a 10K or half-marathon race next spring. Don't want to set my goals to high and get disappointed if I "fail".

    Hi Hege!

    Glad you've started running again. Hope you can continue to build your strength. I guess we all need to just keep moving.

    And Mike,you didn't think you would be able to "ride" this year !


    I have been attacking a big pile of leaves left from last year ( before they start falling again this year !) and clearing out some an ivy area. Got poison ivy. Trying to have a garage sale...what a pain in the a**. I think I am just going to get rid of everything, besides that not to much. Planning a trip for Sept.
