And Happy Birthday to my mother-in-law! 🙂
I would like to take a moment to remember all my friends and family who are veterans or actively serving members of the military. Thanks for all the sacrifices you have made!
Now onto today’s workout…
I fully intended to complete another Impact workout today, but I overslept and had to get to work by a certain time (which, fortunately, is unusual for me). Since Jeb didn’t have to work today, I seriously contemplated staying in bed and skipping a workout – especially since yesterday’s “cardio” day turned into heavy deadlifting! Instead, I decided to go out for a run. It was a bit chilly – about 35ºF – but I bundled up and got out there. Today is the first day that the sun was shining, so I really enjoyed it. I didn’t go too far today – less than 2 miles – but I really tried to push the speed and I’m feeling a welcome burning sensation in my quads now. This run also did wonders for me mentally – I was pretty stressed out this morning, but feel better now.
Tonight, we’re going to my mother-in-law’s house for her birthday dinner. We’re bringing the baked macaroni and cheese. This is NOT something that I will make for myself – it’s just not worth the calorie bomb – but it is SO worth it for a treat! 🙂 If we have time, we’re going to try and get more of the house organized too since our new furniture comes on Saturday!
