Hello hello, hope your weekend was full of fun. Mine was, well, productive :). I am moving this week, so most of my weekend was spent packing, organizing and moving some small things before the movers come for the furniture. That said, I still got in a little fun and some exercise.
Last week’s workouts:
- Monday: Rest/stretch
- Tuesday: 6.5 mile run!
- Wednesday: Metabolic Effect class at Sport&Health. This class kicks my butt and is so fun!
- Thursday: Rest/Stretch
- Friday: Off
- Saturday: Packing/Moving – this counts right? moving is tough!
- Sunday: Moving/4.5 mile run/a long walk <– more on that adventure next post
I was hoping to get in more workouts last week but moving plus still getting back up to speed since getting my cartilage (labrum) fixed in April means I have to be patient and thankful for the exercise I do get in. So, keeping that in mind and knowing that this move is still in full swing this week, I’m focusing on a couple of goals for the coming days:
This week’s healthy goals:
- Hit my daily Nike+ FuelBand goal – 11,000 steps or 3,000 fuel
- Get at least 7 hours of sleep per night
Both of these are seemingly small goals, but both are attainable and make it easier for me to achieve bigger goals, such as going out for longer runs and balancing daily stress so I don’t stuff my face with chocolate eat too unhealthily ;). Funny enough, I think the sleep goal is going to be harder. I love sleep, and maybe it’s commuting to work plus the longer summer days, but often I find myself staying up way too late at night doing little things around the house, catching up on a show – True Blood is awesome, etc. Focusing on shutting down completely earlier is definitely going to be a challenge!
What are your goals for the week? Play along in the comments if you’d like :).
Welcome aboard! Who says chocolate isn’t healthy?😉
Thanks! This is true, I think it’s definitely healthy in moderation and a necessity in my book :).
Good morning! Now is a great time of day to get out for whatever you w/o will be today. Just sayin’😊
I am not a runner, so . . . what is Nike FuelBand??
It’s an activity tracker, much like FitBit: http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/pd/fuelband-se/pid-924483/pgid-924484. I will likely do a review at some point soon, but so far I like it. Worth checking out as the price has fallen because Apple announced a watch and Nike is no longer making the product, but they are still supported.
