Personal:

I've always been more a dancer than a Runner, but i've ALWAYS been into working out and staying active. I ran the 1 mile in track in Highschool ( i think my fastes mile was right around 7 mins.) but never in my life have I ran longer than one mile until 2009. I am a Zumba instructor and I run in the Spring/Summer. I love running but I do not enjoy running on the TM or outside in the cold, so I guess you could say I'm a Fair weather runner.

I am Happily Married to my hottie husband Moses and have 5 cutie kiddos - Moses Jr. (15), Andre (11), Dallas (10), Rhoman (7) and Scotlyn (3) -

I did half a Zumba class then lifted and then did the eliptical for 25 mins, it was almost 3 miles. Now I'm headed out for dinner and a movie with some girlfriends.

nice workout this day!

You didn't enter the three miles in.

From Merri on Mon, Jan 04, 2010 at 20:07:52 from 160.7.252.148

they were "imaginary" miles :)

From Lyns on Tue, Jan 05, 2010 at 00:57:21 from 75.162.196.36

Can I count eliptical miles on the running blog? I thought it had to be running miles. And what about Zumba miles? I would be topping the leader board every week if there were sucha thing!

Merri's right they were imaginary (you're ratting me out Merri!! ;) - I don't really do all this stuff, Really i weigh 400 pounds and lay on the couch all day watching TV and playing video games.

From Burt on Tue, Jan 05, 2010 at 01:12:07 from 98.177.216.165

I've never ran on an elliptical before. Does it actually measure the distance you run? I wonder how that works. Well, what some people do is they consider the effort they put in. For example, if they spent an hour riding a bike, and it only got their heart rate up to like 130 or something, they would compare that to running a 10 minute mile for that long, so they might put in 6 miles for running instead of the 15 miles they actually cycled. Does that make sense?

From Lyns on Tue, Jan 05, 2010 at 01:17:02 from 75.162.196.36

Yeah it tracks your miles but its not really like running its more like biking I thing b/c your pushing downward to turn the "thingies". Its like biking standing up and balancing. That makes perfect sense right???

From Merri on Tue, Jan 05, 2010 at 10:41:29 from 160.7.252.148

I always count my miles if it's running, biking or eliptical. :) I heard once that riding a bike for 3 miles is equal to one running mile. not sure on the conversion for the eliptical or zumba. I bet 6 minutes of zumba equals 10 miles running or something. :)

From Merri on Tue, Jan 05, 2010 at 10:42:47 from 160.7.252.148

but it all probably depends on the resistance and how hard you're working I guess. :)

Taught the first class at the new studio this morning. I wasn't expecting much. 3 people came and I was happy with that, because really I wasn't expeciting anyone. I know its going to be small numbers at first because its a brand new location, but once we get going I think the classes will be packed! The location is good, and theres no contracts, daycare, etc.

We are a one car family now. Mo's car is gone b/c the payments were just too high. Its gonna be crazy with one car but we'll make do. We have to.

Andre's Okay, His eye is super swollen today though,I'm wondering if I should take him in to the clinic. It was just a freak accident, Gavin shouldn't worry about it, it happens :)

From Lily on Fri, Jan 15, 2010 at 15:00:44 from 67.199.182.244

I'm sorry about the car :( If you're home without a car, you call me and I will take you wherever you need to go.

Is that going to be to hard for carpooling then? I could just take them until it gets warm again

From Lyns on Fri, Jan 15, 2010 at 15:19:59 from 75.162.196.36

Thanks Lil, you are very kind!

Most days Moses will be getting a ride with someone to work, so I'm hoping it dosen't effect the carpool. I'll let you know though.

The kids and I weren't doing anything today so I just told him to take the car to work for today.

(Valentines Colors!!!) I haven't been running!!!! I taught 7 Zumba classes last week and I'm teaching another 7 classes this week, and that dosen't even count the Body by Banks practices and the weightlifting that I do twice per the week. Needless to say I haven't been able to run. But I will again, I know I will. I'm doing a lot of strength training and also getting a lot of cardio with all the Zumba classes I do every week, so I think that will help when I do start running again.

I was pretty sure that everyone was getting sick of me blogging about all my Zumba classes so I just decided to stop blogging on here until I actually start running again - which I'm thinking will be March or April.

So there's the update ya'll - for the 3 or 4 people that actually read my blog! haha

lyns, do you have any tips for weight lifting? I have been doing weights but I honestly have no idea what I am doing. What do you do? I post all of my workout stuff on this blog, I think you should to. Its fun to look back and see all you have done in a year.

From Lyns on Thu, Feb 11, 2010 at 11:05:00 from 174.27.194.136

Hey chizel, its my 4th blog reader yay!

I do weightlifting that a few trainers have taught me over the years. Its probably best to learn from a trainer first so that you know that you are doing the exercise right. I lift 2-3 times per wk. mostly upper body.

Okay you convinced me Chizelgirl I'll start blogging again! It really is cool to have a record of everything you've done!

Nada! Kids out of school, so we just chilled all day. I had my sisters kids too and about 3 or 4 neighbor kids, it was a party at the Eyere house.

I took the kids over to the Krispykreme in the morning. Andre had told me that some girl in his class got donuts for good grades, so we went to see if the rumor was true, and it was! They got a free donut for every A (up to 6). So we walked out with 18 free donuts thanks to my smartie pants kids! Lets start the obesity epedemic early by offering greasy donuts as a reward for good grades - hehehe. J/K -- everything in moderation right?

I must be insane today! Here's my workouts for today:

7-9AM- Body by Banks workout

9:00AM - hit up the gym and lifted some weights.

9:30-10:30AM- Zumba class with Ali! FUN! (my intention when going to the gym was to run ... but I heard the beat and was drawn to the Zumba class.)

11:05 - Took a 20 minute run with Andre and Dallas while pushing Scottie in the stroller. They kept up really well! Andre actually beat Dallas and I home. Scottie was asking to run the entire time, so when we got home I ran with her around the block and thats where I saw Wes taking off for a run and then shortly after Miss Merri popped her head out, so we talked to Merri for a little bit.

It's a beautiful Spring day here in Utah. When I walked out of the gym and felt the warmth of the sun I just wanted to take a run outside so bad! I'm so excited that the warmer weather is on its way!

Went to the gym and lifted and then ran for a little, I wanted to run longer but I was late this morning b/c Scottie threw up, so I was cleaning her and the bed up and all that jazz. And while I was running I was so hungry -- All I could think about was eating breakfast and my stomach was growling so bad. Tonight is the Sweaty Chix Summer Fitness Kick-off at Omega so I had to get a sub for my Elevate class so I could go to it, I was kind of bummed b/c I really love my Weds night class, but this thing at Omega will be cool too, I'm excited to be joining forces with Sweaty Chix Fitness!

*UPDATE-- I just registered for the Provo city 5K on May 1st.  I'm super Excited - first race of the season!!! (hopefully my hernia surgery won't set me back too much so that I can go with the other races I have planned,,,,, Marathon may be out this year -- hmmm we'll see how things go.

Taught at Elevate this morn 9-10 - fun class!

PM - Ran with the Lilster  (4 miles in 30 mins). I was kind of struggling, think it was b/c I had just ate dinner not too long before.

...or maybe because you ran with the Lilster and she's freakin' fast!

From Merri on Wed, Apr 28, 2010 at 16:56:59 from 160.7.252.148

Are you & Lily running the 1/2 or 5k on Sat? I hope the weather is better than it is today. Both Tammy & Chad are running the 1/2. I need to get Tammy on here.

From Lyns on Thu, Apr 29, 2010 at 17:00:26 from 174.27.218.69

Finally saw the Elevate place you work at. :) we had a cheer in HS that was something like this elevate your body, get yourself together, when I say 1,2,3 do this with me and you do something weird and everyone copied you. that's what this place reminds me of :)

From Burt on Thu, Apr 29, 2010 at 16:39:45 from 206.19.214.144

Happy anniversary! I was married in Vegas, too.

Merri - you were a cheerleader in high school?

From Lyns on Thu, Apr 29, 2010 at 16:54:16 from 174.27.218.69

Thanks Burty-Burt!!! See, Vegas marriages can last.

Merri - for real - you were a cheerleader, I didn't know that either?

From Merri on Thu, Apr 29, 2010 at 18:02:40 from 160.7.252.148

Nope I wasn't a cheer leader, just a wanna be. :) My older sister was. I was a jock.

Lyns did you really get married in Vegas? It's like my pal Katy Perry says that's what you get for wakin up in vegas.

Ran the Provo City 5k this morning with Lily. It was miserably cold, wet, rainy, snowy, sleety... not good conditions at all.. but yet we still had a great time. I got 3rd place in my AD and 32nd overall, my time was 22:25 (7:14 pace). Proud of myself b/c I really wanted to give up at about 2 1/2 because I was so cold and wet, but I'm glad I didn't. Lily smoked me (of course) she did it in about 20:30 I think, Way to go Lilster!!!!

After the race I went up to SLC to a latin jam class taught by JP Santanna, it was an awesome 2 hours of dancing!!! Very active day, I'm going to sleep good!

I had so much fun and you still rocked! Can't wait to do the next one with you!

Bright and early Body by banks practice this morning. Only one more practice before we shoot the DVD. It was a good practice - they had the film crew there today - I think they are trying to get us used to them or them used to us.

After that Moses and I took the kids over to the Riverview Park and played Football and then a little Baseball with them, it was the perfect weather. Later on we went to Hawaiian Ice and then went to the Library. It was a Good day!

I've ran more than usual this week, I've been off of Zumba this week, so that gives me more time to run. Surgery tomorrow! I'm kind of scared, never been cut into before. Hopefully its not to bad and I have a speedy recovery. Its going to be hard for me not to work out for weeks, its like telling me not to breathe.

I've never had surgery either. Yikes! At least you can get this fixed though. Here's to a speedy recovery!

From Merri on Mon, Jun 07, 2010 at 19:49:56 from 160.7.252.148

I heard it all went well and you're a trooper recovering w/ no pain meds. :) Do you need some dinner? I heard Sandy was taking care of you, but if your dinners have run out let me know. I'm sure I could open a can of pork & beans for you and your fam to eat. :)

From Lyns on Tue, Jun 08, 2010 at 11:21:20 from 174.27.194.83

Yes Merri it did go well. I only had pain meds the first day at the hospital and I was throwing up so I decided not to take them. Ibruprofen has been doing the trick. I think I'm just going stir crazy now with not being able to get out or work out. We're good with Dinners! I should be the one bringing you dinner!
