Hi again, 
New post. Same day.  New look.  


How many times have we read that people don't keep up an exercise program unless they enjoy what they're doing. 
I have found Pilates and I love it!  I attend mat Pilates on Mondays, and Reformer on Wednesdays and Fridays.  I keep it up because I enjoy it so much.  I recommend trying a beginner class.  A friend started last year and now she tells me she has had so much success, she's starting a second class (I go to Okanagan Pilates and Health on Pandosy.)


My cardio at times is lacking, though.  So my focus for losing that last 10 lbs. is to include cardio for a minimum of half an hour each weekday and an hour each Sat. and Sun.




Well, it's Sunday and sunny so it was quite easy to commit to 60 minutes of exercise today.  I walked along the waterfront in Kelowna.  This pic was taken last summer but it shows part of my route.  I mainly walked, but I did do several 2 min. run intervals.  


Best part of my walk-- I saw a heron at the Rotary Wildlife Sanctuary. It was perched on the osprey platform--quite relaxed, enjoying the sun and preening.  I've posted a pic my husband took of a heron this past summer.  His wing looks a little injured.  Today I am sure I saw the same heron, quite healthy and I suppose healed.
With sightings such as these, I should have no reason not to get out and walk (and run a little too!)
Goal #2 accomplished: cardio for 60 min!
