I think I say this most weeks but this week just flew by! I know I wrote about January not being that bad, but I am not sad to say bye by January. The last 2 weeks have been challenging and I have had to get creative to get all of my workouts in. Joining in on the Weekly Wrap with Wendy and Hoho.
Bye Bye January
Sunday- Rest Day
The hubs came home from an overseas business trip and brought a nasty bacterial infection with him. He was so sick all weekend. We even had to spend most of Saturday night in the ER getting IV fluids and blood tests. All good now but I was completely exhausted by Sunday and just needed a rest.
Monday-20 minute Peloton + 60 m strength training + 3 mile afternoon walk
My Mondays have become heavy workout days with the addition of the afternoon walks. We knew our weather was about to get crazy cold and wanted to get it done.
Tuesday- 5 mile run + Peloton stretch class
Knowing this would be the best running day of the week before the temps plummeted, we wanted to get in a good run.
Wednesday- 90 min boxing/strength training + 3 mile treadmill walk
Always hitting it hard on Workout Wednesday. Had to take the afternoon walk onto the treadmill due to the weather.
Thursday- 45 minute Peloton bike + 60 min hot yoga
We were also hit by the crazy temps and Thursday was not an outdoor day at all. Replaced my usual run with a bike class. Jumped into an afternoon yoga class with a friend and had some post stretch fun.
Friday- planned rest day
Woke up to a surprise little snow storm which cancelled the coffee date I had planned with a few running friends. Made the most of my solo coffee date.
Saturday- For The Love 10K
It was a chilly first race of the year and we did not need the groundhog to tell us it was still winter. Had to do a little more walking on the hills than I expected but always fun to get out there with the crew.
I feel the same way about January. I’m not sure if it was the weather but the month just seems so long! I am happy to welcome in February 🙂
Me too! And it is already warm and sunnier
Hopefully the race wasn’t too cold! Looks like a great week in workouts.
Well it was 11 degrees but no wind so I guess a win!
This last week of January was l.o.n.g. It was a challenge for me to get creative with my workouts as well, but I kind of thrive on those kinds of things LOL I LOVE all the bright colors you and your gag pals are always decked out in for you runs! Glad the hubby is doing better, that does sound scary.
It was a rough and emotionally exhausting week. We are headed out of town today for a few days perfect timing!
auto correct #fail LOL I meant “gal pal”…..
How scary about your husband – hope he’s feeling better!
Congrats on your first race of the year!
He is totally fine now but it was not good for a few days!
Have fun on your trip and don’t catch anything! Glad the hubs is feeling better. I hope you are somewhere warm.
Thanks I am excited to get away from things for a few days
It definitely is still winter! I love your coffee sweatshirt a latte 😉 it looks so cozy.
Have fun on your upcoming vacation!
Thanks I am excited to be away with my husband for a few days
Oh man, I’m so sorry to hear how sick your husband was! I’m glad they got him all taken care of. I can only imagine the toll that must have taken.
This week was definitely crazy, weather wise. Most of my stuff was inside, too. I’m glad you were able to take advantage of the nice days and get out.
I love a good 10k. I don’t do enough of those.
He is totally better now thanks and we are excited to spend a few days away together this week. I also love 10K’s wish we had more of them too
Oh wow, I hope your husband is feeling all better now. Enjoy your trip!
Thanks yes he is totally fine now and we are looking forward to spending a few days away together
Glad your husband is OK – enjoy your vacatioN!
That love & latte pic is adorable, you’re just glowing.
Great yoga silliness
Thanks he is totally recovered now. I had to make the most of the weather this week for sure
So glad your hubby is doing better! That is scary!
Much better thanks so much! Have a good week
Oh, wow, how miserable for your husband— and hard on you too. Glad he’s ok now. I love your Latte and Love outfit! Perfect for the weather.
He was very sick for a few days but all good now thanks. I am glad that we have a few days away together
Ugh that illness sounds awful. Glad your hubby is feeling better! Enjoy your trip!
Thanks so much I am excited to get away for a few days
I’m also not sad to see January go. For some reason most of last month was just blah. I’m not happy about the groundhog either, but hopefully its not as crazy low temps as it was last month!
I am hoping for a better January myself!
Enjoy your vacation! It’s always nice to get away in winter, especially after the hubs being sick (hope everyone is ok now).
I’m sure you’ll stay active!
He is totally recovered now thanks and we are looking forward to a few days away together
Oh no, I hope your husband is better now! Enjoy your vacation, sounds like you are both ready for one.
He is totally fine now thanks! Looking forward to getting away together
Coffee with friends is always great but sometimes a coffee date ALONE is something I crave! A little peace, to sip a tasty drink and just calm the mind a bit 🙂 You fit in some major workouts this week and such variety, too. Way to go Deborah, and I hope your hubs is feeling better! There is so much sick going around in these cold months 🙁
I also savor my alone time coffee dates! He is much better thanks for asking
Ugh, January was sooo long. I hope February flies by!
The “For the Love” 10k sounds like a lot of fun, good for you!
Yes I hope so too!
I’m so sorry your husband got sick, but it sounds like he’s feeling better. I hope you two have a great getaway together!
The cold weather really makes it tough to get out for a workout, you definitely made it work and still kept active!
You have to get creative sometimes! He is feeling totally better now thanks
January flew by for me, too! Work is so busy that the days all seem to jumble together!
I hope your husband was back to feeling 100% by the time you left for your little getaway and that you’re having a great time!
Yes he is totally better now thanks!
