Hello hello hello people!

How was your week?

The weather here is FRIGID but Kristina (redheadmama) and I managed to get out and run on Monday! It felt good. All week long, however, I had to do some cross training inside because of the temps. I varied it up with an hour on the arc trainer and twenty minutes on the bike. Then I did an hour on the bike and twenty minutes on the Arc Trainer. Then on Friday I just HAD to run again (since it had been all week without a run) and so I ran three miles on the treadmill using my inclines and then did a a MASSIVE lower body work out as to give myself the weekend to recover. I'm still feeling the burn! Woo hoo!

Tomorrow the kids have the day off school so redheadmama and I are heading out for a run and then taking the kiddos to the zoo! Should be fun.


How did you girls do? Still working it out? What classes did you take? What distance did you run? What new thing did you try?

I had to skip my workout on Monday....can't remember why now.
Tuesday and Thursday I met my best friend Michelle at our local park which has a 1/3 mile running loop. We met at 615am in 35 degree weather and walked 2 laps, then ran a lap all the way through 3 miles.
Wednesday I did my regular workout at the gym. 30 mins on the elliptor followed by a good lower body workout.
Friday I skipped my workout because my allergies got a hold of me and knocked me out with sinus congestion and the aches.
But to make up for the lost Friday workout, I went to the park this morning before church with hubby, the kids, and our neighbor and jog/walked a mile pushing my 22 lbs. 21 month old DD in the jog stroller. My almost 4 yo son ran almost 2/3 of the way too .

Hopefully this week will be better. Here is the plan:
Mon- 30mins of cardio plus upper body workout followed by 1 hr of beginners Pilates at church with my best friend, M.
Tues- 60 mins of jog/walking at the park with M.
Wed- 30 mins of cardio plus lower body workout
Thurs- 60 mins of jog/walking at the park with M.
Fri- 30 mins of cardio plus upper body workout followed by 1 hr of beginners Pilates at church with M.

Hope everyone else has an awesome week!

Good job Sandra K!!

Did everyone suck this week?

I had a great week -- started working with a trainer for 1 month who has given me a new direction for exercise & nutrition. So I'm feeling pretty powerful!
