Thank for joining me and Kim for the weekly run down today. We were in California most of the week for Weddings and Winings (aka wine tastings). There was some physical activity too don’t worry! Here is a peek into my week of fitness and fun,
Weddings and Winings
Sunday- 5 mile walk + elliptical + core
We were up pretty early due to the time change. Well, 5:30 is pretty early for me! We started off with a morning walk to get coffee and breakfast and then another mid morning walk along the Marin area in Berkeley. It was really foggy and thus, my photos did not come out.
I hit the gym for a few elliptical miles and a Peloton core class. Then, we were headed to the wedding in the late afternoon. It was a lovely outdoor wedding but so chilly!
Monday–Walking around St Helena, California
We drove from Berkeley to St Helena to meet up with our friends for a few days of wine tastings and fun. The weather is much nicer here and a lot warmer. We arrived just in time for an afternoon wine 🍷 tasting. We checked into our Air BnB which has both a Peloton bike and tread.
Tuesday- Peloton walk + cycle + upper & lower body weights
Finally got to try out the Peloton tread for a walking class. Yes, it’s pretty great and very smooth. Luckily, our Air BnB also had the cycle and an assortment of weights. It felt great to get in a good sweat session.
Then it was off to wine 🍷 tasting!
Wednesday- Peloton walking class + core + upper body
I took advantage of the Peloton tread to get a couple more walking classes in. Later, I skipped the morning wine tasting and instead walked all around town and in and out of cute little shops. Met up with my husband and our friends for lunch and afternoon wine tasting. One a day is about my limit lol.
Our last night in this beautiful weather and scenery was a fantastic dinner.
Thursday- Airport Peloton walk + fly home
We had an early departure from Napa back to San Francisco to catch our flight. I got in my Peloton check for the day with a 20 min walk through the airport before our 5 hour flight.
Friday- Peloton walk + upper body and core + afternoon walk
Back home! I was eager to get back into my usual strength routine. I’m liking the Peloton tread walks as a warm up to weights. Later, I dodged the thunderstorms and headed outside for another walk.
Saturday- 3 mile neighborhood hood
Sunday is our Father’s Day 5K that my husband has been training for. Can’t wait to tell you all about it! I am already so proud of him.
Wendy says
Looks like such a fun time in California! Good luck today on you and your hubs 5k!
Deborah Brooks says
Cali was a great diversion for me!
Chocolaterunsjudy says
Everyone in CA has been complaining about the weather! #sorrynotsorry (although sorry it wasn’t all lovely for you). Sounds like a great vacation! How cool to be able to try out the Peloton tread.
Good luck to you both! Maybe the race will hook him on running?
Deborah Brooks says
The weather in Napa was perfect and a great escape for a few days
Debbie says
It sounds like you had a fabulous trip! I love your Wednesday evening picture. That jumpsuit (and color) looks great on you!
I hope you and the hubs are having a great race this morning!
Deborah Brooks says
We did have a nice trip thanks. I am very into the jumpsuits this season 🙂
Coco says
It sounds like an amazing time! Did you specifically look for a Peloton-equipped AirBnB?
I love the outfit you wore at the wedding — what a great color!
I hope your husband enjoys the 5K today — such great weather for mid-June!
Deborah Brooks says
We did have a great time in Napa. We did not specifically look for a Peloton house but when it popped up we took it! it was a great plus for sure
Darlene S. Cardillo says
Sounds like a great time.
My nyc hotel had Peleton. I only tried the bike once.
Can’t wait to hear how your hubbys first 5k goes.
Deborah Brooks says
I do love to have access to Peloton equipment while traveling!
Jenny says
I can’t wait to hear about the race! I hope your husband enjoyed it.
Your time in Napa sounds incredible. I agree- one wine tasting a day for me. I think if I went to one in the morning, I would have to go home and take a nap.
Nice job as always keeping up your Peloton streak!
Deborah Brooks says
Yes, 1 wine tasting a day is all I can handle as well!
Michelle says
Time in wine country is always a good time 🙂 Hope you and your hubs had fun at today’s race!
Deborah Brooks says
Yes it is always nice there!
Kimberly Hatting says
Your California trip looked so fun! And that dress 😉 Great job keeping consistent with all the daily workouts while on vacay!!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks! I love to have access to my Peloton while traveling
Susanne says
How lovely that your AirBnB had so much fitness equipment. I wouldn’t expect that! It’s good to be able to keep up one’s fitness routine to some extent during travel. It looks like a good time away – and all those wine tastings!
I hope you both enjoyed the race today.
Deborah Brooks says
Yes, it is good to keep up while you are traveling. 🙂
Lisa @ TechChick Adventures says
I hope the race went well! We had a beer after mountain biking today (around noon) and it was an unusually unproductive rest of the day for me. Day drinking is tough! 😆
Deborah Brooks says
ha day drinking is tough-not my thing at all!
San says
Look at you guys! What a fun week! I love all your colorful outfits.
And I am not surprised the wedding was chilly… it’s June Gloom in the Bay Area LOL (as soon as you get over the mountain to Napa, it warms up! 🙂
Deborah Brooks says
Yes, I was surprised how different the weather was!
Black Knight says
It looks like a great trip: Napa Valley is famous all over the world! But …. what a pity I am a teetotaler.
Congrats to you and your husband on the 5K (I have just seen your photo after the race).
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks we had fun doing it together!
Liz Dexter says
What a lovely trip, thank you for sharing it with us! And hope you both had a super run yesterday.
Deborah Brooks says
We did thanks! It was fun to do together
Kim G says
Looks like so much fun and the dress you wore to the wedding is stunning – I love that color on you!
Deborah Brooks says
thanks so much 🙂
Renée says
California really suits you! y’all look stunning in that setting! what a fun trip and it never even occurred to me to look at airbnbs with pelotons! Smart to also do your peloton walk in the airport – we all usually have so much time to kill in an airport anyway!
will get through the rest of the blogs on the WRD and then come back and read about your hubby’s 5K! I’ve been waiting for that!!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks and yes I do like to keep up my streak while traveling
Jenn says
So fun! We went to Napa on our honeymoon and it was the best time. Also, your hubby has great style. That pink jacket is perfect and your dress is GORGEOUS!
Welcome home!
Deborah Brooks says
Aww thanks so much
Jessie says
Sounds like a nice trip to Napa! I don’t mind multiple days of tastings as long as there are runs and other exploring in the morning! That part of California is so very pretty.
Thanks for hosting the link-up!
