Mii and You!

TWO a days and TWICE a weekend! Marvelous!!!

We took pictures of the two of us, TEN DOWN a piece, but as so aptly remarked by Lorey, we have a lot of "before" pictures. So instead, I'm sharing a picture from the Sunday jaunt to Viva Vienna with Lily on the C & O trail. Babies make GREAT props. All in all, a lovely day ... homemade breakfast followed up by a stroll down to town and then submersion by cannonballs into the pool for the first official triathalon training session! You can tell we're far away from considering doing a BRICK, but hey, we're motivated!!

Yesterday the whole family came to DC and we walked down to the mall, stopped by a few monuments and then ultimately crossed the Memorial Bridge. The real workout came though when Mac successfully launched my Wii for me. He modeled the program for us, and then after they left I put the Wii Fit to the test ... basic news is that I am obese and old ... and my balance sucks!! But thanks to the Wii trainer, that will all improve. I tried all of the balance games- and its more difficult than it looks!- before shifting to the cardio where I became addicted to the step game. Since I'm too uncoordinated to be able to accomplish Dance Dance Revolution, it was fun to get rated and earn points on this program ... and it got more complicated and faster the longer I played. Soon the Wii was telling me that I needed to take a break (after 45 minutes!) and I had worked up a good sweat. I tried out the Yoga poses and was challenged to keep my balance and core in check ... Overall, a marvelous day!
