Downward dog is supposed to be a resting pose... I said supposed me, mind ya! True that, after a while of doing sun salutations, it can become, but it takes time, LOL!

1. 10 Jumping Jacks
2. Calves of Steel Day 29: 200 calf raises, throughout the day. Rating = 9.0.
3. Boxing: 20 minutes of speedbag/heavy bag (punching, kicking, strikes (knee, elbow, palm), back fist combos. Rating = 7.5.
4. BYNM: Day 7 | Crown Chakra | 777 Chakra Challenge.
5. 8.10 mile walk at the Ponds. 2:27:46.
Boxing: Rating = 7.5. This was kind of a slog. I also had a headache…probably because of the flu shot.
BYNM: Rating = 8.0. A fine session…just wasn’t feeling it today.
Walk: 8.10 partially toasty miles with 2 claps of thunder. Wildlife spotted: various waterfowl, 1 small snake and a black squirrel.
Notes: Before the walk, I hurt my toe. It didn’t really bother me during the walk. Once I took off my shoe, it really bothered me to walk. Upon further inspection (removing my sock), I saw that it was swollen and bruised. I attempted to ice it to alleviate pain.

3. BYNM: 5 Minute EASY Yoga | Great for Beginners
4. 3.25 mile walk outside. 58:36.
Boxing: Rating = 7.5. Just ok. At least kicks didn’t hurt my toe.
BYNM: Rating = 9.0. Just some easy stretches.
Walk: Painful and slow.
Notes: My toe felt better. However, I was up for less for 2 hours when I hurt the same toe on the other foot. It hurt me all day and bothered me during the football shortened walk. I am the biggest klutz ever. The Broncos actually won.

Notes: I knew that I failed at the SAP because I saw my test results online. Today they called to discuss…nothing to discuss when the doctor (who wasn’t the one on the phone) already had his mind made up.

Notes: Today was much better. A sunshine walk in nature was perfect.

2. 5 mile walk outside. 1:26.37.
Notes: Not only am I working late every day, once I leave work, I cannot shut my work brain off. I am under a lot of pressure so I will be doing “extra time” for a while. I need to get back to my workouts. My plan is this (and it’s worked for me in the past): schedule the extra work time in my calendar along with the shorter workouts and yoga. I need to take back some control.

Boxing: Rating = 8.5. Some sloppy kicks but otherwise decent.
BYNM: Rating = 8.5. Abs and core aren’t my favorite but I like how she doesn’t hold poses for a long time.
Notes: Football Sunday. Today was ok. The Broncos couldn’t lose because they lost on Thursday. I did see the last 2 undefeated teams lose and kickers miss kicks. In one case, the 2 are related.

Notes: I scheduled 30 minutes “extra time” at work and did 35 minutes but got my workout and yoga in. I count that as a victory.

Notes: SSDD with the extra added bonus of breaking my bottom wisdom tooth on a Twix. I called the oral surgeon's office. They said as long as it’s not hurting, I can wait until my scheduled surgery on 11/3. It’s very creepy to be missing part of my tooth.
