Weekly Rundown- A Week of Weather
Hello! Welcome to the weekly rundown, hosted as always by Kim and Deborah. It’s the end of the first week of NaBloPoMo, and also JeYoFloMo (Jenny’s Yoga Flow Month.) Let’s just see how it all went! Monday New month, new me! I started the “month of yoga” off with a 30 minute flow. All yoga classes were on the Peloton app with my favorite teacher, Denis Morton. Tuesday Dark and early three mile run! Not only was it dark, but it was rainy. So different from my usual hot and sunny runs! It was kind of fun. I had an appointment with the podiatrist for my third shockwave treatment, so I knew my foot would be tender for the rest of the day. And it was! Good thing I got this run in first. Funny thing- before dinner I was about to take a nap, and then I remembered I had to do yoga! I did a 20 minute power yoga class- much better than napping. Wednesday 60 minute yoga flow in the morning. Thursday My foot was still a little sore from the shockwave on Tuesday, so I did a 45 minute power yoga class instead of running. I did not do “the hard one” this week, because last week it really irritated my knees. I must say, I’m not too happy with my new status as someone with “delicate” knees- how the hell did that happen, anyway??? Oh well. I did do other power classes which were challenging but not knee killers- those pistol squats really did me in. Friday Finally, a running day. It was pouring rain all morning- all day actually- but I was so happy to be running I didn’t care. Three happy and wet miles. Saturday I did a 45 minute slow flow yoga class in the morning. In the afternoon we watched the Baylor game as they lost to TCU- noooooooooooo! My husband and I were so sad- although funny enough, my son who’s actually attending Baylor doesn’t care at all. Well, he said it’s better if they win because if they lose everyone is in a bad mood. Other than that, he’s oblivious to football. (Side note- TCU’s team is the Horned Frogs? Seriously? Are they running out of names for football teams? I’m glad my son isn’t a Horned Frog!) We had more rain in the morning and I was starting to wonder if I had moved to Seattle without realizing it. I mean, we never get rainy days like this. BUT THEN…. Sunday! We did it! Got down to 55 degrees overnight! Throw open the windows! What a relief- the AC has been running non-stop since May. I had a five mile run in the best weather ever. Even though I only ran three days this week, I’m so lucky I got to run today. After the run I did a 20 minute power yoga class, and now… It’s time for waffles and the New York City Marathon! Let’s see… we turned the clocks back, it’s NYC Marathon day, we’re having our first cooldown of the year… yep. Best Day Ever. I hope everyone is having their own awesome Sunday! Are you loving your weather right now… or hating it? Are you watching the marathon? (Go Molly!!!)
