Hello August!
I always love the feeling of turning the page to a new month. While I’m never one to wish time away, July felt l-o-n-g and I’m not sorry to see it head out the door. Let’s hope that August can come in and behave itself!
The 3rd week of the Pelothon 2020 challenge wrapped up this week. The goal was to complete at least 1 Peloton workout for 5 out of the 7 days. Here’s how my week went…
Monday — 3-miles and Strength Training. I just couldn’t face another run in the unrelenting humidity so I opted for a treadmill run along with core and body strength classes.
Tuesday — Rest Day.
Wednesday — 3-mile run & Core. This was the best run of the week – my legs definitely benefited from the rest day and there was a slight break in the humidity – win!
Thursday — Yoga & Core.
Friday — 3-mile run, Strength Training & a 2-mile power walk. Selena’s 80’s Rock playlist was a lot of fun and made the run time pass quickly.
Saturday — Strength Training. I decided on 3 classes with one of my favorite Peloton instructors to complete the challenge.
Sunday — 5-mile run. For a bonus 6th day of Peloton, I listened to Matty’s 80s run which was truly the only bright spot of this struggle bus run.
I really liked the balance I had this week between running and strength work with the added bonus of one yoga session. While I don’t have any firm goals for August, I think I’d like to strive to see this mix every week.
How was your week? Did July feel long to you?
I’m linking up with Deborah and Kim for the Weekly Run Down.
July did feel long to me as well. The Pelothon challenge really helped to motivate me this month. Nice mix of workouts for you this week! Have a good one
July felt long but part of me didn’t want it to end because I just want things to get better. Does that even make sense… lol
You did have a nice variety, Michelle. Well done!! It’s not funny (but, kind of is LOL) that we both had icky runs today…with you in spirit, Friend 😉
You had a great mix of workouts this week! I totally agree with you that I hope August will just sit put and behaved herself, lol. I think we are all in desperate need of a low-key month.
A great strong week and farewell to July!
Another great week for you!
I felt like July went by fast. Maybe because I was working in Summer School for two weeks? July was so hot and humid and it felt yucky. I am glad August is here but sort of not ready for going back to school.

July felt long, but at the same time I’d sad to see it go. It’s totally dark at 5am now and very soon we’ll be back to the school grind, even if my younger daughter will be learning from home. Nice variety for you this week!
Yup, July was long! I actually started out feeling really strong and ended up burning out.
I feel you on taking those runs indoors!
Here’s to a good August, Michelle!
Great job with the balance this week! July really did feel long.

Great job!
July was forever. August is not looking to be any more reasonable. Why can’t things just be normal again???
July definitely felt long. 4th of July seems like an eternity ago! You did do a great mix of classes. I love when we end up taking the same ones by chance — I guess this week we’ll probably overlap more!
Is your oldest going back to boarding school for the fall semester?
Another great week with a lot of variety.
I’m sad that the days are getting shorter and that things are still not normal.
Hopefully we both have a good August.
Great job last week! It sounds like you found a god mix of workouts. Let’s hope that August is a good month all around!
