Well, so much for in like a lion and out like a lamb – March came roaring in with strong winds and went out in a blustery fashion as well. While there were hints of spring weather along the way, the weather was all over the place, and things here turned pretty chilly again this week. In other words, a typical March in New England!
I felt a little like the weather this week…all over the place as a migraine put a crimp in my days. Here’s what I managed workout-wise for the week:
Signs of Spring from Sunday’s miles
Weekly Run Down – Week 13
Monday — A ride and upper body strength have kinda been my M.O. for the past few Mondays so it was a 20 min Peloton ride plus 5 min cool down ride, 20 min Upper Body strength, 10 min core, and 10 min stretch to get the week started.
Tuesday — I woke with a headache that had all the makings of a migraine so I took a 1-mile walk and called it a day. Unfortunately, it was a long day at work, which did nothing for my head!
Wednesday — 2.2 miles plus core. The migraine persisted but I was happy to get a couple of miles in.
Thursday — 1.7 miles plus core. It was pouring buckets when I woke up, but with the migraine fading, I snagged a little time on the mill to kickoff my April miles.
Friday — 30 min Ride, 10 min Arms Toning, 10 min Core, and 10 min full body stretch. It felt so good to wake up and finally feel good!
Saturday — 4.25 miles plus Marcia’s 6 Essential Exercises for Runners.
Sunday — I got another quick 2.5 miles in this morning before breakfast and look forward to having a low-key day.
With the migraine behind me, I’m looking forward to logging more miles this week. As I mentioned in my April Goals post, I’ll also be working on making the shift back to early morning workouts this week so I can play Mom-Uber for my son’s lacrosse practices in the afternoons.
Wishing all who celebrate a Happy Easter!
In case you missed it:
I’m linking up with Kim and Deborah for the Weekly Run Down. Stop by and join us!
Sorry about your migraine! The weather has just been so crazy lately. I really hope spring is here for good now. Good luck with the early morning workouts!
Thanks Lisa. I’m really hoping the weather will settle down soon.
Oh gosh can’t say I miss the Lax mom stuff but I am sure the boys are loving being out there. Allergies are fierce right now maybe that set off your headaches? Hope you are feeling better this week! Thanks for linking
I really missed watching both boys play last spring so I have to admit I don’t think I’ll mind all that goes into lacrosse season this year. I just hope it will be safe enough for them to actually play some games!
I grew up in Chicago and it used to incense me when someone would say “March goes in like a lion and out like a lamb.” That NEVER happened! More like April goes out like a lamb.
Ugh, sorry to hear about your migraine. Lots of people seemed to have issues this week- I didn’t feel well either and several people mentioned back issues. Strange week- next one will be better!

It does seem like it was a strange week for many of us…I wonder if there was a full moon? Hopefully, things will turn around for all of us this week!
Sorry about the migraine. I’ve never had one, but it sounds terrible. Feel better soon!
Thanks Jessie 🙂
Boo to the migraine. Glad it vacated and you were able to get back to your routine. Sounds like the weather was all over the map last week…everywhere! And people think I’m crazy for wanting summer weather year-round LOL
LOL I know I’m not ready for summer all-year-round, but some consistency out of Mother N would be nice! 😉
So sorry about the migraine. That is most definitely a “crimp” in the week. Ugh. Thing 2 heads back to full days in school this morning and guess who’s her morning taxi? Yep! Glad she’s going back though!
Thanks for trying the workout! <3
It was a good workout! I need to get back to trying some of your other videos. 🙂
I hope your daughter has a smooth transition to full days! I’m so happy the kids are going back!
UGH on the migraine! so sorry that put a cramp in your week. Looks like you still got some good workouts in though!
Thanks Renée – it’s been quite a while since I’ve had a migraine like that one.
Sorry to hear about the migraine. I’ve never had one but know they’re horrible. Hopefully you feel better soon!

Thankfully it finally subsided by the weekend. It definitely made for a long week!
Boo on the migraines! Glad it got better by the end of the week. Good to hear the kids are playing sports! Outdoor soccer will be starting soon here – which is good news for my son because he works as a soccer ref. $$ 🙂
