Thanks for joining me and Kim for the weekly run down. My mood is much improved the week as we were finally gifted with some real fall feels. Just what I needed! Here’s a peek into my week.
Finally Fall Feels Weekly Run Down
Sunday- 4 miles run/walk + core + stretch
This is more like it! We were finally gifted with some fabulous fall feels this morning. This was just what I needed to get me moving. I had a much better run today and could not be happier.
Monday-Peloton hike + lower body strength + core +afternoon walk.
I started off with a tread hike and then did day 2 of the bike strength combo class. I’m no track with core challenge so far. After lunch, I met a friend for a 3 mile walk in our gorgeous weather.
Tuesday- upper body strength + Peloton cycle + core + afternoon walk
I had a mid morning Dr appointment which meant that I missed my run group. Instead, I got in day 3 of Ben’s strength + cycle split and added on some core and an outdoor walk. It was a gorgeous day with all the fall feels finally!
Wednesday-Peloton hike + core/bike split + core
I started off with a Peloton hike on the tread then headed to my bike to finish the 4th and final day of Ben’s strength + cycle split. Full review coming soon.
Thursday- 4miles run/walk + core
Finally fall feels! I was so happy and energized to wake up to temps around 50. Today’s run was so much better and just what I needed.
Friday-Peloton tread hike + upper body strength + core + afternoon coffee walk
Fit Friday! Started my day off with some Peloton incline walking paired with upper body strength and core. After lunch, I met a friend for a coffee walk in the gorgeous fall weather-finally!
Later, I started prepping my guest bathroom to paint. I was inspired my Kim to take on this project which is way out of my comfort zone and perhaps ability. LOL. Stay tuned!
Saturday- rest day
Today is Yom Kippur, the day of atonement in the Jewish religion and the second of what we refer to as the high holidays. While I do not fast, I do give up exercise for the day and we do go to services at our synagogue. Later, we went to dinner at my sister’s house with my parents.
It’s finally feeling fall and I’m all for it!
Melissa says
hooray for cooler, fall-like weather and good runs! I’m intrigued by this strength/cycle split .. you are so good at fitting it all in!
Deborah Brooks says
I really like to mix things up!
Debbie says
I was a little bummed to miss such perfect weather while out of town last week. We had beautiful weather, but the early morning temps were a little chilly on the bike.
Good luck with your painting project! There’s nothing like the satisfaction of knowing you did it yourself.
Deborah Brooks says
WE really did have good weather and I am all for it. The painting is harder than I expected but I will get there
Liz Dexter says
I will admit we’re missing the start of autumn to have a week in Sunny Spain …
Deborah Brooks says
I mean-I think it’s worth it!!
Jenny says
Well, I’m envious. Our weather has been pretty horrendous. We won’t get fall temps any time soon, but we’re hoping for a little cooldown.
I hope your painting project went well! I’m not “handy” at all, but the one thing I can do is paint.
Glad you had such a nice week- it looks like your fourth favorite season is behind you.
Deborah Brooks says
Ha yes me top I definitely feel so much better in cooler temps. I am so not handy either! Painting is way harder than I expected but I am motivated to finish
Kimberly Hatting says
Yay, you finally got your fall weather 🙂 I know you’ve been waiting a long time fir its arrival. I’m really excited to see your painting project! A word of warning, it can get addictive, LOL.
Deborah Brooks says
I am not as handy as you are! It’s been a fun project but can’t see me taking it on again anytime soon lol
Susanne says
How nice with that autumn feel, it looks beautiful there!
The cycle/strength split sounds like a good mix.
Enjoy the painting. I hate painting, haha! But I do it if I have to and we need to get things done.
Deborah Brooks says
I am not sure I am “enjoying” the painting but I will get it done
The fall temps are great!
Wendy says
I am happy you are finally getting some fall weather! I’m sure it feels great.
I need to do so much redecorating, but with the hubs and his back issues, we’ve had to put that on the back burner. Good luck with your project!
Have a great week!
Deborah Brooks says
It felt good to try to do the painting myself (not sure I will do it again lol)
So enjoying the weather!
Coco says
It was realyl great weather the ffew days I was home!
Nice that you can see your family for the High Holidays.
We plan to ride our bikes over to see my Mom today.
(Oops, jsut saw this didn’t go through this morning!)
Deborah Brooks says
Hope you had a great ride today it was gorgeous out. Yes, I am glad to be able to spend the holidays with my family
Jenn says
Plenty of fitness, in spite of the appointments and obligations!
I am super happy to have cooler temperatures after Milton. It is much needed and appreciated.
Deborah Brooks says
I bet you are excited for some nice weather-Florida needs that!
Jessie Benson says
Glad you’re getting some cooler temps and running is feeling much better. Well done Deborah!
Deborah Brooks says
I am all about fall temps
Lisa @ TechChick Adventures says
Go you on the painting project! I hope it’s going well. I don’t enjoy the prep, but it’s a good feeling of accomplishment when it all gets done.!
Deborah Brooks says
It was more work than I thought but came out really well!
