Thanks for joining Kim and me for the Weekly Run Down today. I having been soaking up our fantastic fall weather while it lasts. It’s all about Autumn Breezes and Falling Leaves this week. Here’s a peak into my week!
Autumn Breezes and Falling Leaves

Starting the week off strong with a mix of strength and cardio. Mixed it up by doing my strength first today.
Tuesday- 3.2 mile run
Another beautiful day out on the trail enjoying the autumn breezes and falling leaves.
Wednesday-10 m hip strength + core + arm strength + 10 min yoga + 30 m elliptical + 2 m afternoon walk
Trying to keep up with my yoga goals this week,
Thursday-4 mile run + stretch
Feeling good abut my running this weak and so happy to be pain free.
Friday-60 m cycle/bike boot camp + core + stretch
Butt kicked by 2 of my favorite instructors. Sign of a great workout!
Saturday- rest day 2.5 mile walk
We did a really fun and delish zoom cooking class with the grandparents and kiddos. It was a fantastic way for us to connect while being apart. (through AirBnB experiences) Our host was a lovely Italian woman in Tuscany. More details to come on this in another post but I highly recommend it. We feasted on homemade pasta and wine. My parents are huge opera fans so we chose a class that had some live opera singing as a surprise. They loved it!
Sunday- on the plan 5 mile run
Sunday Runday on the plan.
Pretty good week all around! I am soaking up with fab fall weather while it lasts. Hope you are also enjoying the autumn breezes and falling leaves. Thanks for linking up today!
My next RunBet starts Nov 1st. The more the merrier join us here.
Well, we had different takes on the weather this week! 😉 I love your “heavily meditated” tank. You know, I am starting to get the itch for the Peloton bike. Don’t you want to upgrade to Bike+ and pass down your bike? 😀
Good thinking on that bike upgrade 😉
agree!
well I do run about 3 hours after you so it is quite different out there. This weather is my sweet spot. You def need a Peloton! I don’t think the newer one is necessary. I am not going to upgrade but it’s a great price right now and I have a discount code. It pays for itself~ 🙂
What a fabulous pandemic idea was that Zoom cooking class! A great way to connect, a way to learn something, and COVID-safe. It’s nice to plan it around an “activity” so you’re all doing something and it’s not just about “how do I get a word in without talking over someone” like regular old Zoom chats.
ha yes exactly! We really loved it and it was perfect for our family to do together
I’m a huge fan of pain free running! Congrats on your miles. The virtual cooking class sounds like a lot of fun.
So much fun! Yes I am so happy to be back out there pain free
Your ZOOM cooking class sounds SO FUN!!! I bet the food was awesome as well. You’re soaking up the last of Fall weather and I’m desperately trying to avoid the onslaught of Winter. We totally skipped Fall in Iowa LOL
well I hope it comes back for a while! This is my favorite month for running.
Love that you chose a cooking class with an opera theme for your parents. We did an IRL cooking class for the in-laws anniversary many years ago. They’re fun and Ill bet the Zoom aspect was a good option for the current climate. Thanks for the linkup!
It was great and just what we were looking for!
That cooking class sounds like a really fun experience! I was loving the fall weather this week too. And today, gloomy clouds and cold. Whomp whomp!
Cooking class was a blast! Just perfect for us. We have a dreary rainy day as well but I got that run in!
I’m also a huge fan of combining strength and cardio, which I why I love the bootcamp classes so much. I feel like you get the most bang for your buck.
The zoom cooking class is such a great idea! What an awesome way to connect with family.
absolutely the most bang for your buck! I have noticed my cycling miles were way less this month but I am ok w that. Yes the cooking class was a blast
What a very cool event! I hadn’t heard of Air BnB Experiences, but what a fabulous idea. I need to book one. I love how they have adjusted to offer these fun new things during the pandemic!
It was super fun I highly recommend
That Zoom cooking class sounds amazing! We just got a new stove–hurray! and I’m already loving it. Nothing fancy but omg the big burners really make a difference. I love that your kids participated too! My oldest son is really getting into cooking. He sends me photos of his creations all the time.
Have a wonderful week and enjoy those fall colors!
My son has also gotten into cooking and he was very proud of himself. It is another good thing that has come out of these last few months
I love the idea of your Zoom Italian cooking class and can’t wait to read more about it.
Yay for running completely pain free! The time you took on your rehab and slow comeback was totally worth it.
Thanks for the linkup and have a great week!
Thanks I sure hope so! I am so happy to be running regularly again
That cooking class you took looked so fun! I’m loving how companies are finding innovative ways to offer their services in light of covid. And yay for pain free running!
we had a great time!
Pain free running is the best, fall just makes it even better
I am IN on the RunBet. So need this right now as morning motivation.
That class looks like so much fun. Need to look into that. Museum of Food and Drink and NY Adventure Club have done some fun ones, but haven’t gotten there to take advantage yet.
Oh yeah glad to have you in the Runbet they are great motivation. Pain free running is the best!
Great week for you! So glad the pain-free running continues!
That cooking class looks like it was a lot of fun – I’m looking forward to hearing more about it.
The class was fabulous! Highly recommend. Pain free running is the best!
Your cooking class sounds so fun! It was a good week of weather but looks like this week will be much cooler.
I am ok with the cooler temps I run much better 🙂
Your ZOOM cooking class sounds fun! That is cool that your parents and kids participated too.
That is great you are running pain free.
They really loved it! Yes pain free running is the best
I Iove that you are pain free! That’s just amazing!
Your Zoom cooking class looks like so much fun. A is in a virtual cooking club and is making some incredible recipes. Even though things are difficult, it’s great to see how things have been able to pivot so we can still enjoy some experiences 🙂
It really was a great time for all of us. Pain free running is the best (as you know too)
I’ve been enjoy the cooler, wetter runs. On Monday I managed just over 17Km. I mix of light trail, road and fields. A few walks with my dog in the mornings and evenings too.
That sounds perfect! Have a great rest of your wek
