Craigslist, Shows, and some other Randomness

*I saw this on our local craigslist the other day...


*Burpees are hard, they suck and I hate them.  But what I hate worse is Burpee manmakers.
You take a burpee:

and you add a man maker in the middle push up part:

Torture I tell you....pure torture.
What was more irritating about them was that those 15lb weights were snatched up right away every time and I ended up with either 20lbs or 25lbs...guess what doesn't kill you makes you stronger?!  At least that was my mantra.

*I joined the RUNGT group yesterday morning for a great workout. About 15 minutes in to the run the north wind whipped up and brought us a nice COOL rain storm.  It feels like ages since I have run in cool weather.  I LOVED it!  Plus getting in 7.6 miles on a weekday, well that's always a plus!  Note to self that even if I run slow I need to get to group once a week. 

*Anyone else have nothing to watch on TV lately?  Summer programming has been crap!  I can't wait for the fall.  A few shows I am looking forward to....

 Elena is a vampire now so this could be interesting....


And my guilty pleasure is back for the 2nd season!

That's all I have.....hope you all have a great Wednesday!

  2. Burpee Manmakers have me oddly intrigued...I'll have to try them in my next core workout. They look like they would kick my butt.

    Okay, okay, I admit it - the horse in the hotel was me. Didn't realize I had been caught. ;)

  3. First of all, that Craigslist ad was hilarious! And second of all: 7.6 miles? Kill me. Kill me now. I can barely squeak out 3 miles, and that's with pee breaks in the bushes. You are a machine, burpee manmakers notwithstanding!

  5. Obesity and stubborn belly fat is a common health issue found today. If you are one among those individuals who have tried everything to burn off excess pounds and felt hopeless, then the Resurge Deep Sleep pills are for you.
