#FitReaders Check-In: May 22, 2015 and DNF time


Join in :D

Sat. 1.20 h walk, 4 km bike
Sun, 1.15 h bike
Mon, 4 km bike, 30 min walk
Tue, 8 km bike, 1 h workout class
Wed, 4 km bike, 30 min walk
Thu, 4 km bike 
Fri, 4 km bike and 30 min walk
Sat, 45 min walk and 30 min walk

The workout class was brutal. I thought we would be outside so I was sweating and trying to take it easy, still my abs felt it the next day.

Thursday was bad though. But I came home, I baked, I cleaned and then guests so no time. But good time to rest my foot...stupid foot.


...................

DNF time.

Blah blah blah
Blah blah Blah
me kick ass woman
Blah Blah Blah

Called it quits at 70

I was all what? Oh I do not care. This book is weird. DNF









I was SO bored. Honestly, I was bored already on page 1 *yawns*
I get it, it's set in Japan, oh wait "Japan inspired" where people talk English and put in a few Japanese words here and there.

And the infodumps, no, that is not the way to write it. You do not have to cram something into every sentence

I have wanted to try his books for ages, but I just could not get into it. Bored, too out there.


I should have read book 1, this did not work. What a whiny character.

    Workout class? I thought no classes until Fall. I hope you enjoy it - "no pain, no gain!" ;-)

      It's a free class that started when the others ended :) The national health institution together with this fit for life thing made it happen

    Aw, I actually enjoyed Stormdancer after getting past the long paragraphs of flowery prose.

    Great job at staying fit. :)

    Stormdancer is such a popular book. I tried starting it more than five times but never made it more than a couple of pages. As you said it, I was bored from page 1...

    I love seeing your progress with exercising. I'm still trying to get 10,000 steps with my Fitbit. I only did that once.

    What kind of workout, Linda? Sorry about the DNFs, but if they don't work, they don't work. Your week was still way better than mine, bum leg and all. I only worked out a couple of times, ugh! Have a great week :)

      Thank you. I try, even if it pains me
