Happy Sunday!
I feel like I was just sitting down to think about my December goals and in a blink, we’re almost halfway through the month! Having said that, this week felt so long largely because it was a dumpster fire of a workweek. As always, working out provided some much-needed sanity. Here’s how the week played out.
My Sunday morning view
Monday — Peloton cycle and strength. I’m so glad Coco mentioned the Flash 15 class in her Run Down last week – the instructor really makes the most of those 15 minutes!
Tuesday — Peloton yoga. Hip Hop meets yoga – This class was part of the Artist Series featuring music from OutKast. It was definitely not your traditional yoga class but oh so much fun!
Wednesday — Rest day.
Thursday — 3 miles. I’m not sure if it was the weather, the OutKast playlist, or just a chance to break away from work stress and Zoom calls, but everything about this run felt great. I wish I had had time for a longer run.
Friday — Peloton cycle and strength. I completed the OutKast classes with two of my favorite instructors. I especially loved the ride – a perfect way to head into the weekend.
Saturday — Yoga. I woke up feeling creaky and the foggy, rainy weather didn’t help. So it was yoga for the second time in the week…who am I? It was just what I needed.
Sunday –– 4 miles. While my sleep was erratic, Mother Nature served up some very mild temps and I couldn’t pass up getting in a few early morning miles.
In other news…
It was great to receive this email earlier this week!
I was a Headsweats ambassador in 2018 and while I decided to step away the following year, my love of the brand never diminished. I look forward to being a part of this team next year!
And, that’s my Run Down. How was your week?
I’m linking up with Deborah and Kim!
This month is flying by! Those flash 15 classes are hard work I did one yesterday too. Also a fan of the yoga classes this week. Congrats on headsweats-I do love their visors. Thanks for linking up and have a great week ahead
Jess really does pack a lot into those classes, doesn’t she?!
Oh,I’ll have to check out those other Outkast classes. I really like the playlists they have. Our weather was freaky warm today, but it already feels chilly tonight.
I thought the playlists were so good – hope you get to try them!
Great week for you, Michelle 😉 I don’t think I have any Headsweats gear, so I’m eager to hear about and see more of their stuff. Congrats on being a part of their team!
Thanks Kim! 🙂
Hard to believe we are halfway through December. Congrats on your ambassadorship! I have a few of their visors and hats and love them.
Zenaida Arroyo recently posted…Weekly Run Down: Week #1 of training for a 10k and almost Winter Break!
Thanks Zenaida – I’m really looking forward to working with Headsweats again!
I’m right there with you trying to keep my head above water. This month is blazing by! Congrats on the Headsweats gig! They are my fave and I was an ambassador who stepped away as well.
Just keep paddling as fast as we can, right?! I keep hoping things will slow down just a bit.
It’s a tough month, but I’m so grateful for the decent weather so we can run it off!
Congrats on your Headsweats ambassadorship! I’m wearing my HS beanie for all my runs this month.
Now that the temps have dropped I’m sure my HS beanie will be a constant for me too.
Yes, why does December speed by faster than any other month??? Sounds like you had a great week in spite of the challenges at work- you guys are making these Peloton workouts sounds awfully attractive!
I have to say I really do love all of the variety Peloton offers!
I’m sorry it wasn’t a great week, but it sounds like fitness was great this week if that makes sense.
Congrats on having a great run! They’re what keep us running.
And congrats on being a Headsweasts Ambassador again, too.
Thanks Judy – fitness has really been my bridge to sanity lately.
You are rocking your workouts.
December has been a tough month,
Thank goodness that until now, the weather has been ok.
I don’t know what I would do without the stress relief working out provides!
Congratulations on your Ambassadorship! That’s so fun!
Hip Hop yoga sounds amazing. I love yoga, but I love it even more when it’s super high energy.
That yoga class was such a fun change of pace – I would have never thought the music would have worked for yoga but the instructor did a great job!
Congratulations on your ambassadorship and I’ll look forward to finding out more. And a good exercise week!
Thanks Liz!
I really enjoyed the Outkast cycle class with Denis – so much fun! I still need to take the Flash 15 and Outkast strength class. There are so many great classes to do lately!
I know what you mean…the list of classes I have bookmarked is getting long! I think that ride with Denis was one of my favorites!
That a great mix to the workout – my weekly routine is pretty much just running and then fast walking on my rest days. Hoping in 2021 I can incorporate more variety and some much needed stretching routines – My old legs are so stiff and I really should be stretching more than I do right now.
