Monday 2/23 - PiYo Define Lower Body.
I'd say this was another decent week of workouts. I got all my running in and some PiYo. The 12 mile long run went as good as it could. I didn't get any strength training in so that's a downer but it's ok. Yoga every day for at least 5 minutes for the prAna #sweatpink #taketheleap challenge has been going really well. I enjoy the new poses I get to learn each day and I am doing some of the regular yoga stretches each day and seeing improvements.
Aside from training, this weekend was fairly busy. On Saturday the whole fam went to the Howell Living History farm to check it out. It was a beautiful day, cold but sunny. It was nice because they had an event going on and we warmed up by eating some yummy pancakes and drinking hot chocolate. The hot chocolate really hit the spot.
My 5 year old's classmate had her birthday party at Bounce U so we took the kiddos there. This was the first time I had ever been to a Cosmic Bounce U party where the lights are off and they get glow in the dark necklaces. Pretty cool, just hard for the adults to watch the kiddos. ;) The kids had a blast though.
Sunday was spent mostly relaxing and staying out of the snow and ice. I did get to spend time with just the girls on both Friday night for a girls night to get some drinks and also had brunch on Sunday after my long run. It's always so nice to spend that extra time with the ladies. Didn't get any pics, but hopefully next time I'll remember to snap a few. :)
Looks like you had a great week despite the weather and you got in your workouts. I too participated in the #taketheLeap challenge although I didn't post everyday. I did pretty good for a beginner and will continue to add yoga into my workouts. It really helps my running. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great training week (way to go on your long run - woo hoo!) and it looks like y'all had a wonderful weekend. Love these pics with the boys in the snow! Thanks so much for linking up with the blog again this week; hope your week is off to a great start!
ReplyDeleteGreat training week! Looking at your pics's you are like a 1000 times ahead of me on whatever I will be able to do in Yoga, that is awesome!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun weekend! Great job getting your runs in and doing the yoga challenge! I'm getting excited I get to see you all next week! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Tricia! I have learned a lot from the #taketheleap challenge! Great job doing it too!

ReplyDeleteThanks Kristy!! I have learned so much doing the #taketheleap challenge. I'm sure you can do it if you practice. I'm not the most flexible but doing this challenge and learning new poses has definitely helped me gain more flexibility.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sherry! We're all excited to see you next week!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenny!! Ah thanks for thinking it's my type of run! :) I've actually been avoiding the trails lately because it so hard to run on right now. Hopefully I'll be able to get back on them soon!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great week! When I was running along the trails this weekend, I thought... this is a Sharon type of run! Your yoga is looking great.
ReplyDeleteThanks! The farm was great! It was a beautiful day and that's made it worth it along with the hot chocolate! :)
ReplyDeleteYou had a solid week! I'm so tired of the cold weather but at least we're seeing some sunshine. Love that clear blue sky!
ReplyDeleteThanks Marcia!! Me too, so tired of it! It needs to warm up soon!
ReplyDeleteGreat job with your training!! I've enjoyed running in the winter, except the ice just makes things a little too scary!
ReplyDeleteThanks Janelle! Yeah, I'm not fond of the ice either. Just gotta be careful!
