today's the day

I got my 13 year old daughter signed up at the gym with me and her enthusiasm is infectious.  Which is what I was hoping for.  We went to the gym together this morning at 6am and did some cardio and then I had her work on the machines with me.  She is meeting with a personal trainer next monday just so we can see what her fitness is right now and that way we can compare it as she gets in better shape.  i am going to get my fat test as well so I can start to measure my success.  Victoria has started ice skating and is getting a lot of exercise that way as well.  She really enjoys it and I love watching her.  I took her out to Lake Zorinski to skate and I brought my skates so I could join her but unfortunately after 15min on the ice my shin splints really started to flair up and I could hardly get back to shore.  Oh Well there are other things I can do to get my exercise.  At least it's a start.
