LIFT Fit

Only had 20 minutes to squeeze in a workout today, so this is what I did: 200m run, 10 pullups/chinups, 20 pushups, 30 situps, 4x. Total: 800m run, 20 pullups/20 chinups, 80 pushups and 120 situps. 17 minutes! You DO have time to exercise!

It's a BEAUTIFUL running kind of day...off to the lake front path!
