When so many people just hop into a car and head to a fast food restaurant, it's interesting you went for a 2 mile walk. Did you drink a smoothie or something for lunch?
Tonight the dog and I walked a mile, jogged 2 miles, then walked another mile. Also I did 28 push-ups this morning.
-
Gianni, yes I had a smoothie, with my quinoa and black beans. My job allows me time to conduct physical training, because it pays to be in shape. It keeps us sharp, which is very important, zero error and mistakes.
Today's workout I walked 2.5 mi during lunch, at home I warmed up shoulder stretch, mobility WOD, 10 min rebounding

If only my lunch breaks were longer (I only get 30 minutes) I would SOOOOO take advantage of this.
I've mostly been doing a considerable amount of walking due to the fact that I've been working A LOT. Haven't had time to get to the gym, and I'm detoxing big time so I have to gauge my energy and ability to what I can push myself to do. This morning for the first time in a few days I feel like I have a decent amount of energy. I will bike tonight, as well as walk.
Keep up the good work everyone!!
