Thanks for joining me and Kim for the weekly run down. While last week sure did feel like Groundhog day, this week really is Ground hog day. When will we get out of the deep freeze?! Here’s a peek into my week.
Groundhog day weekly run down
Sunday-tread walk + core + stretch
Yes, it’s still freezing and super windy thus today’s walk was again on the tread mill. I have jumped into the daily core challenge via Peloton. Join me if you’d like. Each day has 5-10 minute classes by a variety of instructors. Later, I met some friends for coffee.
Monday-45 min tread hike + core + cycle class
Groundhog day for real! We did not need the little ground hog to come out to tell us it’s still full on winter. Today’s 45 min hiking class was tough in a good way. I followed that with a standing core class and then jumped onto the Peloton for a 30 min class. If you have not done Tunde’s Magic Mike Live class yet, it is quite amusing. Who knew this was coming to broadway?! Hmmm
Tuesday-core + full body strength + tread walk
Why yes it does seem like groundhog day again! today’s 45 minute full body strength was tough and I think my glutes will feel them tomorrow. These offset reverse lunges were killer!
Wednesday-core + power walk
Well, it was a balmy 31 degrees this morning and I had to get outside! The sidewalks and many of the streets are still icy. I was just so happy to get out with my weighted vest again. My Gortex Brooks Ghosts helped a lot!
Thursday-45 min full body strength + outdoor power walk
yup, it’s still cold and we are all sill not happy about it! I know the weekend will be worse so I headed out for another power walk. Later, I headed over to visit my parents for a few hours.
Friday- tread bootcamp + core
Finishing off a strong week with a hiking bootcamp. I love these efficient workouts alternating the tread and strength. Later, I was off for a mani pedi Valentines style.
Saturday-core and stretch
A planned rest day for me with my daily core and longer stretch. I am not a fan of our current weather! I did not need a groundhog to tell me it was still winter! But it was the perfect night for ramen!
Good job on getting outside while you could! Last week’s weather was brutal for us and this weekend sounds even worse! I’m glad I’m south of the cold in sunny Florida! Stay warm!
It really is just awful out there!
oh, it has been so cold in ohio! single digits, with one day warming up to 20 and then back down in the single digits again. good for you for getting outside when you can! I can’t wait until outdoor workouts become back in my routine.
Me too! This week looks better
-25 now. This is crazy. I don’t want to leave the house.
Love the nails.
Hope it warms up for you.
I’m heading to Florida. Yay me.
This week looks better for sure. Enjoy your time away
Amazingly, our local groundhog, Woodstock Willie, did not see his shadow–let’s hope he’s right! The upcoming week looks like a thaw. Which, of course, means mud on the trails, lol. There’s no winning this time of year! It looks like you made the best things, getting outside in the sunshine!
I’m dong my best!
I forgot about Groundhog day since I was traveling, but it sure does feel like it with day after day of cold.
Good for you for getting outside. I did make my group walk to diner in Boston — probably 3/4 mi each way and it felt good!
I did a short hike class in the hotel gym and it was good. I’m not sure I can get rid of my running goals, but maybe after LHH in May I can do more hiking classes.
Love your mani look!
I saw you tried the hiking classes. They are a great workout to add in on a non run day
Ha, I can just picture all you northerners scowling angrily at Puxatawny Phil. Thank goodness for indoor options! I LOVE your nails, so cute. And, I’m glad you got outside for a couple days before the next freeze sets in.
Looks like you got some good outdoors time after all! Hope your weather gets milder soon – it has to! You’ve had enough of this freeze!
Thanks we are sure ready for it
I’m just shaking my head at the fact it’s SO much colder everywhere but Iowa (I’m probably jinxing things for my area with that statement). My forecast is showing 58F for tomorrow afternoon!
Oh enjoy! Sounds like you got a little reprieve this winter
Hopefully you will get a break from the cold and snow soon! Good to have your Peloton workouts to keep you going! I don’t have my Peloton membership any more or I would join you for the core challenge. I’ve been slacking (and enjoying ski vacation too much haha).
Your nails are very festive!
I do really rely on Peloton so much! This week looks better fingers crossed
Brrr, it’s still so cold where you are… and I ran in capris and t-shirt this weekend.
I have not done the Magic Mike Ride yet LOL but have heard much about it.
Who is doing the Daily Core Challenge? I hadn’t heard about it. Sounds like a great streak for February!
This is a streak from Andy’s fan group-not too late to join in
Very cute nails! Ramen sounds delicious. I’m getting pad thai this week, and I’m excited about that!
Pad Thai is always good!
