Mary Kay Gates

Still having a little hard time scheduling time for myself to exercise, however I must say it is getting easier because the days I do take some time for myself, I feel much, much better…and those days I definitely watch my caloric intake!

Experiences February 19th through 25th

  Tuesday: walked 3 miles (with husband!)

  Wednesday ran 4.5 miles

  Sunday ran 3.5 miles

  Monday ran 6.2! (the length of a 10K race) a very special day!!!!!!! Now, I need your help!!!!! I would like to share the fun with the Powhatan community! Come on down(or up or over or across) and take a class for FREE and see how a new fitness participant (that would be me) gets motivated and receive a free “I worked out with Mary Kay” tee shirt*!  Must register by calling the Elizabeth Randolph Lewis Powhatan YMCA at 598-0250 a minimum of one hour before class/experience begins.

you are an inspiring example- is it necessary to actually exercise- or can one watch and obtain the benefits through osmosis
