Wednesday, so it's a softball day (no tennis). Unfortunately we didn't have a very good game, in fact lost by the slaughter rule. Had a few balls in the outfield so got a bit of running (we were short so I had all of center field!), but hitting wasn't great. Walked once and got a hit once--but caught.

Well, I kind of cheated today on my "20 minutes of exercise rule". Knee's still tender so I was going to get up and do an Ab workout today. As I got up from bed, I realized how sore my abs and obliques still were from Monday night....nope, another ab workout wouldn't be a good idea.
I have both softball and tennis again tonight. At softball, I had one good hit that had me get most of the way around the bases, and two great fly catches that had me running a bit, plus some other backup runs. Then at tennis we had lots of deuces and a tie-breaking set. Since it's doubles, it's not alot of running, but some. Plus it's a workout of my arms, legs, and core so it's kind of like a strength and flexibility workout. Unfortunately that's all I did so it wasn't a concentrated workout, so I feel like I cheated a bit. Yet, when I started this challenge, the whole goal came from me thinking that I had no excuse not to do at least 20 minutes of activity a day. Ultimately, it was to get me off my butt and not just sit around when I really have at least 20 minutes every day I could do "something". Therefore I guess being on a softball league and tennis summer league does just that---it's something to get me active in at least a little way.

Softball today and there were a few hits that I had to sprint for, plus a few hits so sprinting to first. Came home and still had to work out. Decided to try my newer DVD, the one with 10 minute workouts. Did 2 of those workouts, one active one and a stretching one. Not the hardest workout, but at least it was something on top of the softball.

I should have gotten up to exercise, but I was just sooooo tired. I just couldn't get going. I have softball tonight at 6:50pm so I thought to bring clothes with to go to the All Saints gym. I didn't want to strain myself too much, so I just did 20 minutes on the elliptical with no resistance and 10 minutes on the bike with minimal resistance. Good enough, then off to softball.
