Day 5 - It's Friday, it's Friday! Can't believe we made it to Friday!

Well, Nikky here, it is Friday night and I can tell you that my hamstring is getting better. While everyone went on their walk today I spent the time walking in the pool. It was an hour in the morning and 2.5 hours in the afternoon. I even had to race some kids up and down the pool to keep myself going:) The injury is still frustrating but I know that if I keep moving I can make it.

No Bosu balls today! How did we get so lucky you ask? We went to gym in Two Harbors and did some weight training and cardio on the machines. It was a nice change of pace but not easier. We were told we had an awesome  workout and for our reward we were given the privilege of walking the 1.5 miles in windy fifty degree weather. What fun! It seems that whenever we drive somewhere in town we have to walk back...hmmmm....we are on to them! When we get back we are going to have to have our friends and families drive us places and make us walk home so we don't forget all the fun we are having here! Camille went on her 2.5 hour hike - about a 10K so she is ready for the Nickel Dickel Day 10K in Waconia in October! It feels like our Dad's were right when they said that they walked up hill both ways to school. I never thought that was possible until now! We also had a nutritional talk with our trainer Leif. We are excited about the plans we are going to take home with us. Lots of information but I loved the quote "If you fail to plan, then you plan to fail". We have time to plan here and I know we will be successful.

Meals
Breakfast - Special K Cereal with berries and almond milk
Lunch - Spinach salad with asparagus and shrimp (yum!)
Dinner - Chef salad with lots of veggies and chicken
Snack - Apple and 7 almonds

Until tomorrow,
Nikky and Camille
