Thanks for joining Kim and me for the weekly run down today. Autumn has finally arrived here in the DC area and I am ready for all the fall feels. Crisp mornings and cool, sunny days are the weather patterns I dream about. Here’s a peek into my week of running and fitness.
All The Fall Feels
Monday- Full body strength + core+ Peloton cycle + stretch + 3 mile walk
I am always super motivated on Monday mornings and today was no different. It was no nice out that I headed out for a bonus afternoon walk. I started listening to Malibu Rising on audible so that motivated me to get out there.
Tuesday- 6 mile run + stretch
I was solo out there today but that did not matter because it was a spectacular day. Fall feels around 50 degrees made my run delightful.
Afternoon hair appointment. It was time for a fall update on color and cut.
Wednesday- Full body strength + core
I started off strong but got derailed from my workout. I had a few service calls arrive at all different times and my son’s SOS call from the Verizon store. His phone died and it took us a while to get a new one for him. Mom to the rescue! No worries tomorrow is another day.
Thursday- 5.5 mile run + stretch
It was another gorgeous day around here with all the fall feels. I have to admit I was excited when my running buddy showed up in coordinating running gear. It’s the little things!
Friday-strength + core + cycle + stretch
I woke up to see there was a new Peloton and Beyoncé challenge. Of course, I was up for trying to get the badge. I took 4 of the 6 needed classes today. Had so much fun on the bike singing.
Saturday- rest day
Saturday is my rest day. I did the Beyoncé stretch class and now have one class to go.
Sunday- on the plan 8-9 mile run
It looks like another gorgeous day for a run. I am all over the fall feels and I am just soaking it all in. Hope you all had a fantastic week! Thanks for linking up.
Lovely haircut and colour – and leggings!
thanks liz hope you are on the mend
Not doing too badly, thank you, still got some scrapes and bruises though. And have not wanted to go back to running. Really hope I can get some static bike in at least this week.
I hope so too! Hang in there
Another great week, Deborah! I’m in total agreement with LIz…your hair looks awesome, and all those snazzy leggings are so on-point 😉 Had to laugh at your statement about you and your friend’s coordinating gear…that happens to Barb and myself a lot. Great minds LOL
I sure do get ridiculously excited when our outfits coordinate. The little things 🙂
LOL, those SOS calls to Mom never end. Glad it was just a phone emergency. Love your hair!
the SOS calls never do end! I kind of like to be needed still
Loving the haircut! It’s nice to change it up, even though I never do, LOL! I am so with you on Fall! Have a great week, Deborah!
I do love the seasonal color updates! 🙂
Oh Deb – I absolutely love your hair! You could seriously be a hair model! That alongside with being a workout gear model! We need to get you a deal! Well done on another consistent week!
ha ha I like the way you think! 🙂
Your new style and color looks great and is really beautiful on you!
I love the cool crisp fall days for running, but when cycling it’s a cold start! I am still learning what to wear under what temps, and of course, trying to figure out when to take off a layer without getting too cold. I have learned to never take off a layer at the top of the hill after sweating my way up because I’ll freeze as I fly down the other side!
dressing for cycling us is definitely a whole different scenario
Doesn’t it feel great to have new color. My appt is this week.
Another active week. Fall agrees with you
Yes it does! And yes, I do love fall running and appreciate that extra spring in my step
Haha, laughing about your mom rescue call! I still get those and I’m secretly pleased they still need me! Love the color and cut! Have a great week!
I am secretly pleased they still need me too! I won’t tell if you don’t 🙂
What a great week! And yes, you and your hair looks great too. I love all your workout/athletic gear!
Thanks Melissa have a great week ahead
Way to just about knock out that Beyonce challenge already! The fall hair edit looks wonderful. I need to follow your lead. I’m pacing myself because we have a family portrait happening over Thanksgiving weekend.
ha yes, you have to plan the hair around the photo op!
Sounds like you had a great week! I can see how happy you are, now that your 4th favorite running season has officially ended. 50s and sunny is amazing running weather!
ha ha you remembered that! Yes, fall running gives me a nice spring in my step for sure
A great week, congrats!!!!
Here we often receive mom/dad/gradma/grandpa rescue SOS but we like to keep always in touch with our children and grandsons.
Yes I secretly love that they still need me to come in for an SOS sometimes
Another great week of workouts for you, and I really love your new hair color. It’s perfect for the Fall! You know I’m a huge fan of Fall running – it’s truly the best season for running and racing!
thanks and yes it is the best season of all. Enjoy it!
Love the new ‘do. I need to get one more haircut before it’s too cold — doing outdoor only.
Aren’t bonus walks the best? NOt an audio book person, but I have some walk only podcasts and it’s so nice when there’s a chance to listen, or those are a reason to go.
Happy Beyonce badging!
bonus walks are the best! Hope to get in a few this week too
Your hair looks gorgeous! This is really the best time to be a runner in most parts of the country! I just love October and wish I could bottle it up and keep it for longer!
thanks and you and me both! I am trying to soak it all in while it lasts
The weather this week was perfect! Love your new color and cut – always nice to get a fall refresh 🙂 Have a great week!
yes it is! This week was amazing enjoy your fab weather while it stays around
Your hair looks amazing! That reminds me I need to schedule my appointment. I knew it was just going to be hidden under a cap during my vacation so I didn’t rush to get it done before I went. How fun your friend showed up in coordinating gear for your workout! Nice job this week. I am looking forward to some nice fall weather around here this week!
I just schedule my next appointment for 8 weeks later so I don’t forget. Hope you get some of that amazing fall weather as well
I LOVE your hair, it’s so pretty!! It always feels nice to get a fresh cut and color doesn’t it?
Great week in workouts! I need to work stretching and yoga into my routine more.
Yes it does feel good to get an update. I really love all of the Peloton yoga and stretch classes so much I did a whole post on them
Love the new cut and color! And yes, it’s always mom to the rescue – that’s what we’re there for!
I love the cooler mornings, but it’s back to 70s and 80s for us. Booo.
Great week for you!
I kind of like to still be needed-don’t tell anyone 🙂
