Thanks for joining Kim and me for the weekly run down. This week, I was determined to make the most of what I can do right now and not dwell on what I cannot. I had walks and talks and lunches with my friends near and far. I’m getting by with a little help from my friends.
Weekly Run Down
Sunday- 3 mile walk + core + barre
Summer finally made an appearance and brought it’s heat and humidity. I got out for an early walk then spent the afternoon lounging by the pool with a friend. I also had a phone chat with Coco.
Monday- 2.5 mile walk + Upper & lower body strength + core + stretch
Summer made a fierce appearance today with hazy, hot and humid weather and big storms. I got out early for a walk with my friend Jenny. Headed home to do some Peloton strength with Jess and Marty and Emma. I pulled myself out of my IG slump and posted again,
I had a nice “marathon” session phone chat with Wendy and then cohost Kim which definitely helped. Thanks you 2.
Tuesday- Peloton cycle 45 min + core + stretch
Nothing like singing out loud to a few Madonna classes to get me out into a better mood. I felt like I had a pretty decent workout. Then it was off for a new hair cut and color. I told my hair guy he could have free reign and I needed something fun for the summer. It’s very red!
Wednesday- 3.5 m walk + Upper + lower body strength + core + 3 mile walk
I kept pretty busy and active today. Started with a morning walk with a friend and then headed home for some Peloton strength. Later, I met up with a few more friends for an afternoon walk and then dinner with another one of my besties. I also squeezed in a phone chat with Cari. It was a busy and better day for me.
Thursday-5 mile run/walk + stretch
This was much more a walk than a run however, I am so happy to be back out there with some of my friends. I am currently allowed to exercise if I keep my HR around 140 which is not so easy in the summer heat. Going to keep dong what I can.
Friday-Peloton walk + upper & lower body strength + core + stretch
I am enjoying the Peloton tread walks as a warm up to strength work. Feeling a lot better today. I also had a nice lunch with a friend and a massage.
I reshared one of my favorite Pasta salads on IG. Apparently pasta salads are all the rage this summer. This one with grilled pineapple, peppers and tofu is so good and it’s vegan.
Saturday-45 min Peloton cycle + stretch
This was one of the best workouts I had all week. It’s much easier for me to get a longer cardio sustained workout on the bike right now. Even better, I hit my 9K minutes on Peloton.
I am feeling a lot better this week and so grateful for all the support from my friends near and far.
