Alihikes getting fit and having fun

REALLY excited about Spark and my Spark teams. I'm in my early 60s and work long hours at a stressful job, so working out and eating healthy are challenges for me sometimes. I LOVE hiking, backpacking, cross country skiing, snow shoes, and kayaking. I want to get more fit to enjoy these activities with my friends, and to have more energy (and not burn out!) on my job.

I got the problem fixed. It was something I ended up asking HP about. The tech told me to go into internet options, click on advanced, and pick reset. It worked. Everything straightened up and I finished my page.

Thanks for you comment on my blog! I wish the trip was real!
I am part of a Challenge on the Janet Evanovich and Stephanie Plum Team. We are taking a "virtual" tour to different destinations around the world! We earn points by doing exercise, drinking water,tracking, reading health articles and things like that. At the beginning of each trip we are told the number of miles we need to complete and the points we earn equal miles! There are three teams and the first team to get the correct number of miles arrives at the destination and wins! It is a lot of fun and really gives you incentive to do the things you need to be healthy! I am posting pictures of each destination to add some extra fun to the Challenge! This is a destination that I picked because I love Indian food and I make it myself to make it healthy!

Thank you for reading and commenting on my "Yoga...Really???" blog. emoticon My biggest problem with yoga is arthritis, I have it really badly in my neck as well as my knees and lower back. I have to adapt a lot of poses so I don't injure myself. I do a lot of the WiiFit Plus yoga but the DVD we have is completely different. I hope you're having better luck with it than I am.
