Lunges, lunges and more lunges!!!  Today’s 43 was all about the lunge! To make it more fun, I decided to work off the clock.  Start with a forward lunge with your right leg (to 12 o’clock).  With the same leg, lunge to the side (3 o’clock).  Lunge back with your right leg (6 o’clock).

There are lots of ways to make this even more challenging.  I chose to do 43  sets with the right leg and then 43 with the left leg.  You could alternate legs to make it a little easier. Also, once I started with my right leg I kept it going and did not tap my foot in between lunges or clock sets.  If you wanted to add in a  toe tap it would give you a little bit of a break. The most important thing is to watch that your knees don’t go over your toes.

129 consecutive lunges on each leg and my quads were BURNING!!!  :Happy:

After a couple of fast 10 minute walks with a friend I decided to hop on my treadmill again. I ran 5 miles in 30:50 then did 3.25 more miles at a much easier pace.

Have a great day!
