Thanks for joining Kim and me for the Weekly Run Down today. We are currently jet setting in The Maldives to celebrate my daughter’s graduation. I believe I am about 12 hours ahead of you all right now so it’s probably in the middle of the night for me right now. Let me give you a quick recap of my week. I am the sure there will be longer posts and many photos to come soon.
Jet Setting in the Maldives
Monday- strength training and Peloton
Trying to squeeze in all I can this week before we leave Tuesday. I do love my Monday morning spin and strength training. Just sets the tone for my week on a regular day.
Tuesday- Run 5 miles
I was able to get a nice run in with the crew before heading to the airport. We have some long flights ahead of us. I know I will miss a few days of workouts. This is one of our favorite spring venues to run to. Stopping to smell the roses.
Wednesday- plane travel
Left JFK late Tuesday night. Flying to Singapore and then catching a connection to Male, Maldives. We then hop on a small sea plane to the hotel we are staying at in the Maldives. It will be almost a full 26 hours of travel by the time we get there! I say it’s worth it though.
Thursday- travel day and arrival in Maldives
Friday- sunrise yoga
Regular yoga class is going to have a hard s time competing with this view. Since we had major jet lag we were up pretty early.
Saturday-
A busy day in paradise! Started off with some gym time, an aerial yoga class and then snorkeling with my son. Probably the most beautiful water color that I have ever seen.
Sunday-
This should really be a run day for me. With the temps in the 90’s not sure that will be happening. I may just get back in the water for some more snorkeling instead! Update got a short run in!
Looking forward to sharing more about our trip jet setting in The Maldives when I return. Thanks for linking up with us and I will get to your posts as soon as I can. Have a fantastic week ahead!
How exciting! I hav eloped seeing your IG photos – the water is just stunning!
Continue to have a fantastic time there! 🙂
The water is just unbelievable it’s like swimming in an aquarium
What an exciting week for your family! The pics have been beautiful, looks like you’re having a grand time 😉
We definitely are! Thanks! We are here for a few more days then off to Singapore
Wow! Wow! Wow! How beautiful and exotic! Have fun with your family. Can’t wait to hear more about your trip. I don’t think I would be running. You are dedicated! 🙂
Honestly I am having so much fun with the other activities I have only run once
Wow, amazing photos, what a huge treat! I wouldn’t have run long in that temperature, either!
I felt crappy afterwards I am just going to enjoy the water sports for the next few days!
Love it Deborah! looks like you are already having an amazing time! ENJOY every minute!
Oh we sure are! Thanks so much
How BEAUTIFUL! I can imagine how peaceful yoga with those ocean views must be – that water looks gorgeous. Have fun celebrating and relaxing!
The water is like nothing I have ever seen
You have to enjoy where you are! The runs will be waiting for you when you get back, and a missed run here & there is not the end of the world. You’re obviously staying plenty active!
Yes I know you are right! I’m hitting the water sports again today while I can
Looks like you are having a fun time! Love the view for the sunrise yoga 🙂
Oh it was a good one!
Looks absolutely fabulous! What a fun way to celebrate your daughter’s graduation!
It’s been absolutely amazing spending so much time together too
Wow that looks amazing! I could get through the 26 hour trip but a sea plane??? I would think twice about that — or maybe have to not think about. Sounds like an unforgettable family vacay!
The sea plane was not my favorite 45 min! I get a little motion sick
Everything looks so pretty!!! Continue having a great time with your family.
So far so good thanks so much!
Looks like a fabulous spot for a vacation! Enjoy!
OMG – goregousness!!!! Enjoy your time in paradise!
So far so good! Going to be hard to come home
Sooo jealous of your trip to the Maldives! It’s definitely on my list. I wish I would have gone when I was working in Singapore, would have been a much shorter trip! Oh well..
Good for you for getting in a run while there AND multiple types of yoga. So fun!
Oh yes it would have! Long journey indeed. We head to Singapore on Tuesday
SO beyond amazing! The pictures are stunning and it looks like everyone is in deep relaxation mode. Good for you. Enjoy every minute!
Deep relaxation mode indeed!
WOW! That water is incredibly blue. It almost seems fake since it’s such a pretty color. Enjoy your trip!
It does almost look like a movie scene it’s gorgeous
Looks like such an amazing trip! I don’t know if I could handle the travel to get there but it looks like it was worth it! Keep on sharing your photos. It’s gorgeous there.
The travel to get here was rough but worth it!
I saw your photos on Instagram and immediately showed Mike. Everything looks so beautiful, a trip to the Maldives is definitely on our bucket list.
I sure hope you both make it here one day!
I cannot seem to comment back on your blog from my phone will try again
Sounds like such an amazing trip! The pictures are stunning and snorkeling sounds so fun. I hope the rest of the trip is enjoyable!
That looks so gorgeous!! Enjoy the rest of your trip!
Thanks so much!
What a fun week and beautiful photos! I’ve never been to the Maldives but those water photos look unreal. Don’t wory about running for now – running will be here when your vacation ends 🙂
Thanks I know you are right but I always feel guilty about slacking off while traveling
That is a long time to be traveling….but looks like you got a nice relaxing vacation out of it!
I thought the link up was open til noon Monday, but that seems to have changed…what is the link “window” now?
Hmm should be Monday at noon. Maybe some glitch this week sorry about that!
OMG, Maldives?? Wow! That looks amazing. Enjoy!! Can’t wait to see more pictures and hear some stories of your travels.
It is pretty amazing and it’s going to be very hard to leave!
I’ve loved seeing all of your Instagram posts. It looks so beautiful there!
Thanks for the linkup!
Thanks it’s been a really fun trip so far
Thanks for the post. We love the maldives and we keep going there for our vacations most of the time to relax and enjoy.
Thanks we loved it there too!
Love your dress!
Have you ever snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef? I’m not a big open water person but I got past that for Port Douglas and it was amazing
Maldives on my bucket list for sure
No I have not been to the Great Barrier Reef yet on the list!
So magical. I preferred Port Douglas to Cairns. Quieter.
Have not been there either!
