Wow this month has been super busy! Between juggling some last minute issues with Ragnar, planning our MRTT holiday party and organizing our girls on the run end of the season events, I am a little overwhelmed at the moment. I did, however, get in most of my usual workouts this week. I am wrapping up a busy October with Hoho and Wendy.
Wrapping up a busy October
Sunday- Hot yoga class
Now that it’s cooler out, I am loving adding back in more hot yoga classes especially the day after a long run.
Monday- 30 m walk + 60 m strength training
Legs were a little tired today so mostly focused on upper body and core. In case you missed last week’s Meatless Monday recipe, here’s one more look at my Berry-licious Oatmeal Breakfast Bake. I will be whipping up another one for this week.
Tuesday- 4.25 mile run
Loving these nice cool temps! Completely overdressed for my run and was sweating by the end. Usually takes me a few weeks to figure out my wardrobe when the weather changes.
Wednesday- 90 m strength training and kick boxing
Always love my Wednesday workouts. This week we worked on doing some more challenging side plank combos. Missed my afternoon walk today due to rain.
Thursday- 3.25 mile run + 60 m hot yoga
Legs felt heavy today but got in a short run. Was able to squeeze in a noon hot yoga class too.
Friday- rest day
I must have slept funny and woke up with a pinch in my shoulder blade. Figured it was a sign to take a day off.
Saturday-Hot yoga
We woke up to a very rainy and cold morning. Perfect day to meet my friend, Coco for a hot yoga class and lunch.
Sunday- run on the plan
Mot sure how far going to see how I feel.
Heading out this week for our Ragnar Napa valley race. Don’t miss the Ultimate Coffee Date linkup Friday and all weekend long. Hope to see you there because I am going to need lots of coffee! Wrapping up a busy October indeed!

Great week of workouts! The weather was great for running this week but tough to figure out what to wear. Have fun at Ragnar!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks very excited
Kimberly Hatting says
Busy busy busy!!!!! What a busy week…and busy upcoming weekend as well 😉 I love that pic of you and Coco. I need to try adding weights to my side planks…great idea!
Deborah Brooks says
It is fun when we get to meet up!
Judy @ Chocolaterunsjudy says
It is SO damn hard figuring out what to wear in the transitional months. I’ve definitely been struggling with it.
That berry bake looks scrumptious & I did miss it. I’ll have to take a look at it.
Have a wonderful time in Napa! I know you will!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks so much we are really excited
Kim G says
Congrats on a great week of workouts! That photo of the berry breakfast bake just made me super hungry!
Love that you were able to do yoga with Coco too!
Deborah Brooks says
It’s fun when we get to meet up
Wendy says
Awww, I love that you and Coco did hot yoga together!!!
Good luck at Ragnar! I can’t wait to hear all about your adventures.
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks can’t wait!
HoHo Runs says
That is a gorgeous tree in your title photo! I forget how to dress when the temps drop as well. Today, I wore a T-shirt and immediately wished it was a tank top. How fun to spend some time with Coco! She is on my “must meet” list (while you have moved over to “must spend more time with” list 😉 ). Y’all are too cute in those patterned leggings. Good luck at Ragnar! Hope the weather cooperates too. Thanks for linking!
Deborah Brooks says
definitely on my must spend more time with list too! xoxo
Lesley says
Good luck with Ragnar! Pack lots of coffee too!
Deborah Brooks says
Ha I am going to need it!
Coco says
You had a great week. I have to remind myself of what layers I wear for what temperatures, and definitely wear more this time of year than once I’m used to it. That shouldn’t be a problem in Napa though! You will have so much fun!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks I am really excited
angela @ happy fit mama says
Sounds like a great week of workouts! I really want to love Hot Yoga but I just can’t get into it. I don’t even mind the mega sweating especially when it’s cold out.
Deborah Brooks says
when it’s cooler out, hot yoga is my favorite especially after a run. I find I get a much better stretch with the warmth
Cari says
Glad you made the best of yesterday’s awful weather. Hope your shoulder is feeling better
Deborah Brooks says
Yes feeling all better thanks!
Allie says
OMG that breakfast bake!!! YUM!
Good luck getting to sunny California this week and have a great time running Ragnar!!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks we are really excited to get there!
Lacey@fairytalesandfitness says
That berry cobler looks delicious! I want to come to your house for breakfast. I have yet to take a hot yoga class this fall. I like taking those when the weather cools off. I could not imagine taking one in the summer.
Deborah Brooks says
You are welcome anytime!
