Hello! How’s it going? How’s your week? How’s your life? Tell me. I need a friends.
All I have now is my cat, Vegas. But at least he doesn’t judge me for eating almond butter out of the jar (multiple times a day).
This morning I took a walk to get warmed up and catch up with my What’s App friends who live on the east coast.
Then, I made a quick protein shake and headed to a strength class at the gym. It was a great class! I really love the instructor and am considering stalking her at the other gym where she teaches. I’m a stage 5 clinger. Too bad.
I got caught up on email and projects today. So I’m pretty happy with the productivity level of the day. But, I have to admit I thought it was Monday all day and just realized I’m way off. Ha!
In Vegas news… he loves to sleep on dirty clothes lately so I can’t put them in the hamper. Where would he sleep if I was actually not messy for once?! And really if he didn’t have dirty clothes to enjoy he’d find something clean to put his fur all over so I think this is a smart move overall.
It’s Pad Thai Tuesday! One of the local Thai restaurants (there are tons of great ones around here) has a special on Tuesdays and I am addicted.
I did 45 min elliptical hour of 30/20/10
I am not doing well this week. I don’t feel well. My stomach is not right and I have no energy as a result. So, I actually went to the gym the other day to workout and left after doing 1/2 of one set. Last night I did most of my routine and 10 minutes at a slow pace on the elliptical machine. But I am not feeling well. So, do I beat myself up and say, “You didn’t meet your goals this week?” Or do I push myself really hard even though I feel yucky. I’m leaning towards just taking it for what it is. If I’m up to it, I can push a little harder next week. If the gym is open on Thanksgiving morning, I’ll even try to get in there for a workout first thing, just to finish strong.
4.3miles today!
I ran 4 miles.
I love pad thai!
Tuesday = 4 treadmill miles with some tempo built in! I’m running my first ever 5k race. It’s funny that I am intimidated since I’ve run several 1/2 marathons and a marathon, but I know I have to push myself to go faster if I want to hit my goal.
He loves you and worn clothes have your scent on them. It’s a compliment
3.5 miles done Wednesday. Not bad on a treadmill, but wish i could’ve gotten outside when it was light.
I did 1.5 miles of speed work today
I ran/walked 2.5 miles and did strength training.
Tonight was our weekly Disneyland night so I got in over 6 miles today. Yesterday bootcamp and tomorriw. Hoping my weekly miles are more than last week
It has been so hot (Australia…) that I haven’t been able to go out during daylight. Like over 100 F hot. Do you run in that in California?! I’m still determined to POTM with you though…might be a lot of walking though.
5 miles on the treadmill then insanity class, plus 2 miles walking. happy hump day!
6 miles and some yoga for me today.
After one full month without running to try to let my plantar fasciitis heal up, I went out for an easy 4-miler this morning. POTM running total for the month thus far: 4 miles. 😉 Unfortunately, this evening my heel hurts as much as ever and I am hobbling around pretty frustrated.
My early morning running buddy cancelled, so I ended up going back to bed 🙁 I wasn’t feeling that great anyway, so I decided that today could be a rest day, and tomorrow (when I was planning on resting) I could fit a run in. I’m still well on my way to 5 workouts this week, and I’m doing waaaaay better with my eating so I’m alright with my decision 🙂
Did strength today with 10 minutes on the Treadstepper thing that kicked my butt!
Strength: 2 of 3 days
Cardio: 0 of 3 days
My workout was 21 day fix lower body this morning. Running rest day. On track for the week so far..
I did 6 miles, but it gets dark way too early now and I was scared running in the dark most of the time. I also saw some deer that got too close for comfort, is it spring yet?
Ran 6.5 miles today!
I ran 3 miles today!
Solid 10 miles today, 8 outside then 2 on the TM.
Today was supposed to be strength training but I hit snooze too many times and got in 5 minutes of squats/lunges. I’ll try and squeeze in a few more minutes of some activity later tonight when I get home from a meeting.
1 mile warm up and did 21 Day fix Dirty 30…switching up my upper body workout.
Ran 3 miles this morning!
Teaching two classes today, one more up at 6 pm!
3 miles this morning and a 2 mile walk with the dog planned for this afternoon!
4 miles…getting a little chilly out there….
Hi,
Another easy 3 miles during lunch … 3rd run of the week !
met my goal last week, Yay! but had now wifi all weekend, yuck, so I never checked in!
Feeling sick this week. Missed my run yesterday, but was able to walk a few miles this morning.
I ran another 5 miles today! Yay for me getting up and doing it. I was convinced that I had forgotten to set the alarm, so I woke up a few times in the night all panicked. However, I had set the alarm and all was well.
We are hosting my in-laws for dinner tonight so my 7 miles will have to get pushed to tomorrow. Sometimes being a productive, responsible adult has to take precedents….the struggle!
Yesterday’s WOD: 8 rounds: 6 deadlifts, 8 power cleans, 6 hand release push ups.
Today’s WOD: backsquats, then 15 min AMRAP: 3 thrusters, 6 C2B pull ups, 12 double unders
Totally missed my run/walk yesterday, so today will be 4 miles on foot.
It’s a rest day for me so I can enjoy a sushi dinner with family and friends, but I may sneak in a little somethin” somethin’ before then.
Yoga and strength training for me!
This afternoon was arms and abs…nowdebating on adding in some cardio..or calling it a day..
Elliptical and stair master today
Does putting the baby in his carrier and pacing around downstairs whilst tidying (because if I stopped he would cry) count as a walk? The weather here was awful today! Physio exercises to do later.
Bodypump in the morning and then a bit of bodycombat practice! Day 3/5 done!
6 miles on the tread with speed work- was tough this morning! Trying to make a habit of working out before work!
4.5mi!
I walked 2 miles with my toddler in the jogging stroller 🙂
4 miles on the treadmill….20 minutes on the elliptical! Now a day full of teaching PE (roughly 5-6 miles) and then eating ALL THE FOOD
3 miles this morning!
Rest day today and then 4 miles on the schedule for tomorrow. I love me a rest day!
POTM: I tweeted you my near deathly gym fall this morning…but I survived! Spin class and planks.
Run club tonight! Going to the track for a ladder workout, then swimming a bit
4 running miles + lower body strength training today!
I love Pad Thai too-yum! I got in a November Project workout and ran there and back for an extra 5K!
This week is not going too well- been feeling under the weather and this is my second day off in a row. I know its not thatt long and its good to rest but struggling with feeling guilty/lazy. I hope the extra rest will help me be extra motivated to get back to it tomorrow!
I think gym instructors take it as a compliment when you follow them to other gyms to take their class it means you really like what they do! its hard to find that perfect gym instructor too, stalk away I say!
I aaalways have to remember to close my closet door, bc otherwise my cat Loki climbs up onto my clean shirts and sleeps. and he likes to pick out the black and dark colored shirts, as he is a grey and white cat, that jerk heheh.
my week is short and almost over!!! Today is my last day of work these week, and then tonight I fly home to Massachusetts 🙂 I am so so so so so so so so excited, despite the weather reports of rain and freezing heh. So pumped!!
I’m going for a run on the treadmill soon! I plan for 8 miles to pile it on!
45 minute strength training complete!
Yoga & push ups today!
I ran a little over 3 miles this morning on the treadmill while watching American Horror Story. Since the show is a bit scary and my treadmill is in the basement I spend a lot of time thinking I am seeing or hearing things, but hey…it helps get my heart rate up even more. The challenge is going ok overall. My exercise is great…it’s the staying away from sweets that’s lacking. I’m gonna work harder on getting that piece of my life together.
Ran 8 miles yesterday and did a 6 mile speed workout today!
I got in 3 miles this morning! 🙂
I totally stalk good fitness instructors! I mean when you find the one you like, you want to only go to their class.
I ran a 10k this morning!
