Thanks for joining Kim and me for the Weekly Run Down today. Hello, March nice to see you! I always forget just how windy it can be this time of the season. We had lots of sunshine this week I’ll take it! These cooler temps are still my happy place for running and I plan to soak them in as long as I can.
Weekly Run Down Hello March
My mini goals this week were to do daily core and stretches and get my walks back in the rotation. Happy to report I hit my goals. Here is a peek into my week.
Monday- strength for runners hip mobility + core + upper body + 50 min Peloton cycle + afternoon walk 2 miles and stretch
I love to hit the ground running on a Monday and make it a great start to my week.
Tuesday- 10K run + stretch and core + hips yoga
Another great running weather day. A little windy but not too bad. I found a few more yoga for hips classes that I can throw in to break up my day.
Wednesday-core + upper body strength + 30 min Peloton + stretch + 2 mile walk
Sticking to my schedule of pairing strength with running and Peloton cycling and it’s going well. Another nice afternoon walk in the high 50’s.
Thursday-6 mile run + core + stretch + yoga for hips
A sunshine and sunglasses day! While it was windy, it was a gorgeous morning to be outside.
Friday- lower body strength + core + stretch class
A rescheduled haircut appointment had me cut my workout a little short. Priorities! ha!
Saturday- rest day
Went for a walk and phone chat just to get outside. Stretching and relaxing. Trying to honor my rest days.
Sunday- On the plan 6-7 mile run
Sunday runday on the plan!
Hello March nice to see you! The sunshine has improved my mood dramatically this week and it’s been nice to be outside in some capacity daily. How was your week?

You kicked off March in a strong way! Glad you got those walks back in the rotation. Thanks for the linkup!
Yes feels good to back to walking!
This was such a great week! It’s like someone flipped the “off” switch on winter…it’s still a bit cold but it’s sunny and there’s no ice anywhere so I have the outdoors back! Once it warms up we’ll be able to have outdoor family gatherings again, which is huge.
yes having outdoor gatherings again is something to get excited about for sure
so so windy here…everyday! But a great week for you. I’m always impressed with your long mid-week runs. But I run alone except on the weekend so I think that holds me back.
I agree that I would not be as motivated to do them alone! My runs w my friend are really my only social things right now
Sunshine and sunglasses make such a difference. Well done on your goals this week. Will look for the hip mobility one. I just did the Rebecca Kennedy hip stretch that I think you recommended (it was bookmarked, and Michelle didn’t know it) and wow, what a difference the focused 90/90 is.
I’m with you on the walks. Humans aren’t meant to be indoors.
The daily hip classes have been great and my body appreciates them for sure
shhhh…the wind has thus far evaded us. But we did have the massive snow dump, so maybe that was our gift from Mother Nature?
Haircut for me this week too. I always wait too long and now it’s impossible to style. Thank goodness for the ponytail! Have a great week!
Yes the March winds are always something else around here but made for nice speedy return run today. Speedwork in disguise 🙂
Solid week for you, Deborah! I’m so glad to have my daily outdoor walks back, too! I was managing short ones, when the temps were so dangerous, but there’s nothing like a long walk in pleasant temps.
Yes indeed I am excited to get out more this week with temps advertised in the 60’s
Great job hitting your goals this week. I can’t wait to get back to my family lunchtime walks. I did them a lot last Spring and it was a great way to break up the workday.
It was super windy here this week every day – I hope that changes next week!
It is a fabulous way to break up the day! I love that you all do them as a family. Trying desperately to get the hubs out
I agree the sunshine has been great! Now if only that wind would die down a little!
It was kind of crazy this week but it always is this time of the year One year they almost cancelled cherry blossom bc there were 50 mph winds!
A strong start to March! I’m also looking forward to getting back to more daily walks.
Thanks for the link-up – have a great week!
I used to really enjoy the walks and I know it will be good for me to get back out there
You had another great week, Deborah. I’m so ready for the wind to move on out and bring us spring temperatures. Isn’t it amazing that getting a haircut seems like such a treat these days?
Thanks for the linkup and have a great week!
Getting a haircut does seem like a treat! The week ahead looks just gorgeous!
good week for you Deborah. well done on your mini goals too! I wish I could win your KT giveaway! Love that stuff. in fact you reminded me now to order some more tape! ha!
Since I have to pay to ship it out, I had to stick to US entries sorry 🙂
It was not very sunny here most of the week, and it was COLD. Really cold. But next week will be much better!
Nice week for you, Deborah. Sunshine makes everything better!
sunshine does make everything better!
I agree the wind can be really annoying, but chilly and sunny running days are my favorite! Sounds like you had a great week!
Pretty good yes cannot cmaplain
Way to kick off the month of March strong Deborah! You covered a lot of ground 🙂 Spring has arrived!
thanks feeling good this week!
I love the idea of mini goals! My goal every week is to comment on all the blogs in the link up, but there are so many great friends here now I struggle to get every last one in! I do read them all, but sometimes commenting from my phone doesn’t work. Anywho… March is starting out great here. I love hearing all of the birds. Great job getting all of your workouts done! Haircuts are definitely a priority too 🙂
Isn’t great to connect with all the fun bloggers in the link up?!
A hair appointment is a top priority for sure! Great going on your runs, rides, strength and yoga. You seem to have figured out a good balance. That KT table kit looks amazing!
I feel like I finally have a good balance!
The sunshine this week was awesome! It definitely improved my mood. I am due to another haircut this month but am debating if I want to let it grow a bit.
enjoy your warmer temps!
Sounds like a great way to kick off March!
pretty good week all around
What a fantastic giveaway, and I am so glad you were able to get your hair cut!
Every day is a sunglasses day here. Even in the winter, the sun is just so strong!
Great week for you!
It is nice to see the sun come back out here!
Good strong work and yay haircut!
always feels good to get a haircut and color
