New Work-Habit

So a few of my co workers put me onto a ..work day -work out..
Mid day after lunch we do quite random work outs...Friday we climbed 20 flights up and down.My legs felt like they didn't belong on my body..lol Great, though.I underestimated myself...I made every flight in 10 minutes.:-).If it weren't for the excess smoke and dust in this non window having jail staircase..I KNOW I   would have been better...I was nothing short of wheezing when we got down..ugh NYC..and I DON'T have asthma...I made it though.! I made it.If i did the Rocky Balboa dance I'm sure I would have inhaled some asbestos..lol

That made the weekend  quite interesting.My body was aching no matter how much I stretched.I ALSO had many errands to run and didn't even wear flats.Silly me

Monday comes around and its Part 2...this time I went 24 flights..took about 11minutes give or take,since my calves and my thighs were STILL cursing at me.lol




























Today ,they con-ed me into trekking from our job to Bryant Park in 10 min....I work on 7th ave Bryant park is more like 5th avenue..a total of about 10 blocks (power walking) in 10minutes.THERE AND BACK.
NOW..I must say it was more like a skip ,sprint walk.NYC traffic is no joke and I had the nerve to be stubborn and wear my slouchy ankle boots...so now my heels are SCREAMING!
All in a days WORK-out ;-).We made it though!

Now if i could juts get someone ELSE to eat my Girls Scout cookie order.. :-/

  1. Great work- out, Bootz! That smoking in the staircase sounds like one heck of a hazard. I remember scaling them steps in Ramon's building (Schomberg) and it was no easy task-- even for a teenager (at that time). Kudos to you!

    You gotta keep some running shoes under your desk or something. Don't get healthy at the expense of the bones in your feet! Lol.
