Weekly Review

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!  We spent most of last week in Ohio with family and I'm grateful that we were able to have that time together.  Of course, the travel put some kinks in my workout plans but I'm ok with that trade off at this time of year.  Here are the details.

Monday - barre video on You Tube

Tuesday - 30 minute run


Wednesday - Rest day and travel to Ohio.  Our flight ended up being a couple hours delayed so we made the most of our time at the airport.


In addition to a couple glasses of wine, I watched Brittany Runs a Marathon since it's available on Amazon Prime now.  I ended up really enjoying it.  I was concerned about the fat shaming at the beginning and what seemed to be a message related to how she would be happy if she just lost weight.  But the movie seemed to correct that message in the end and suggest it was much more about taking control of her life and not about losing weight.

Thursday - Rest day and Thanksgiving number one!  There were 6 of us and we knew we had another day of feasting on Friday so we wanted something that wasn't too heavy.  We had a rainbow carrot farinata and a tarte tatin that Mike made.



Friday - 3 mile run.


Plus this was Thanksgiving number 2 with a total of 8 people.  We decided to make things wasy for ourselves and just ordered food from Whole Foods.  They had a whole vegan menu for Thanksgiving.  We ordered 6 servings, figuring that 8 servings would be too much food.  But even then, we had a lot of left overs.  If we do this again I think we could even do 4 servings for 8 people.  The food was all delicious!  The entree was a mushroom etoufee, the sides were cornbread dressing, collard greens and black eyed pea fritters.  The dessert was vegan pumpkin pie.



Saturday - Rest day

Sunday - Rest day and flying back home.  We had an early flight and everything was on time.  I had meant to get in a run in the afternoon but it pretty much rained all day and I was tired after the travel.  So this was a much needed extra rest day.  It also included a lot of kitty cuddles and a friend who came over to visit later in the afternoon.


Back to the normal routine this week.  Here's the plan.

Monday - Rest day
Tuesday -30 minute run
Wednesday - Strength training at the gym
Thursday - 45 minute run
Friday - Barre video
Saturday - Yoga
Sunday -45 minute run
