Past 3 Days of Butt-Kicking
Hey, folks! I just wanted to let you know what I’ve been up to in the last few days. As you know from my last post, I’ve been challenged by my new workout partner to kick some serious butt this year in terms of my health and wellness goals. Personally, I’m a bit intimidated, but [...]
My First Workout of 2010
Hauoli Makahiki Hou! (Happy New Year!) Today I decided to work off some of the good luck noodles and not-so-good-for-me desserts from 2009. I put my kid on my back and took a brisk warm up walk through the hills of Hawaii Kai. Then I came home to complete a ladder consisting of clean & [...]
