Overall I feel really good about this week. There were only two workouts I didn’t get done and for the Saturday one we did a family hike instead.
Friday was such a hot day, I felt like I had to drag myself thru my workout to begin. I did the circuit from our book, 10′ warm up on the elliptical, a full body weight circuit, 10′ of intervals, 5′ abs and some stretching. I felt very energized afterwards and it was done in about 45 minutes. For more information check out our book, Mindful Makeover for Moms.
Saturday we had some out of town friends call us at 10:00 AM and see if we wanted to go hiking, so we met them at 11:00 at Bent Creek and took our daughter on her first 3 mile hike. There were some piggy backs given, but she did great. She had fun and took a 4 hour nap afterwards.
It is hard to believe that I am in the last two weeks of this goal. This summer has been very fun and very busy. The challenge this week is that I’m on vacation from teaching, so I’ll be out of my normal routine which always makes it harder to exercise.
Live Well,
Laura
It was fun hiking with your family! I’m excited to learn the formula that 3 mile hike yields 4 hour nap in children;) We should spread the word to parents everywhere:)
