Spring Fitness Challenge
By Three Crazy Dogs | May 19, 2008
My company has this fitness challenge which started today. I registered as a team to compete with 184 other teams within the company. How this works is you score 1 point for every 10 minutes of physical activity you do. Sex included, I wonder?? 
Anyways, I am glad I signed up coz I’m slacking in the exercise department. Yesterday was the hardest I have ever worked out for a long, long time.
I brushed the boys 20 minutes each because of them shedding their winter coat. They must be several inches shorter now!! There were fur all over the yard! Great stuff for the birds to build their nests. Next, I bathe them and cleaned their ears. So far so good. Thought I would vacuum the house upstairs and downstairs. That did it!! After doing the stairs to the basement, I was walking like this “?”. My back was about to break to half. A back breaker, alright. I didn’t wanna do much after cooking for the week. Sat on my butt and placed orders on Photobucket. Online shopping to stimulate the economy!
So far, today, I have complete a 15 minute walk: walked the floors in the building and took 25 minutes to walk the walking path during lunch. We are getting really crappy weather lately. It has been raining very frequent, seems like every other day. I don’t mind the cool weather but the darn rain can go away for a while. When it rains, no walks for us. Spring storms, you gotta love it.

Hi Dawn
I wonder if sitting on a riding lawn mower in the middle of the afternoon (being all sweaty) qualifies as exercise.
I seriously need to get back to some fitness regime after a long holiday.

Hi Dawn, no wonder you have that fabulous, hit the back of a bus kind of figure (to men admiring you) with all that exercises.
I used to do some exercises, shadow boxing at home, but age catching up, ha ha, now apart from walking once a week, I mostly exercise my finger, one only…typing on my keybord, ha ha.
Told my wife about you doing a jump from a plane she said, “no thank you”, ha ha.
Keep well Dawn and have a nice day, Lee.
ps, the wether gone bonkers, last night today temp dropped to 4′c!!!! And in MAY?

Good for you! Sounds like you’re doing a great job. We’re having some of that icky wet weather here too. It puts a damper on most exercising for me too.
