Notes:

  • I was so proud of myself for running 5 miles on the treadmill Monday without stopping – that’s far for me! I broke up my last two treadmill runs before with lifting before/after each mile (and did that for the one the next day). It’s warm enough to run outside again, but it’s kind of nice to do the run/strength split and (I hate this phrase but) kill two birds with one stone.
  • I broke my “movement every day” goal this month by taking a rest day Wednesday. I mentally needed it after my work day. But I had two travel days this week and a full day with family and I got some movement in each of those days, yay! I thought I would run in Iowa, but it was -6°F the morning I was going to, so I waited until the afternoon when it was warmer and went on a family walk.
