I went running this morning to give my arms a break. I forgot that April is mud season and yes that’s a very real thing as all the dirt roads get muddy from the snow-melt and then torn up by cars and trucks. Makes for tricky footing when it’s bad. It’s fun though to watch tourists get stuck in it haha. Happy weekend!

Sure, there’s still snow on the mountain behind me but spring is finally coming. Woohoo! Just did Wednesday’s WOD. Subbed in 1/2 lb and 1 lb ropes for 1 lb and 2 lb and it still kicked my butt. Eventually I will toss the 2-pounder back in the mix but today was not that day. Gonna play hooky from work and go for a long walk this afternoon. Don’t tell! 🤓🤓💪💪😎😎

Ran intervals this morning and was shocked at how fast I’ve gotten. These high intensity JRD workouts have really pumped my running up several notches. Still had something in the tank so followed up with the April Ab-Mania workout. That was no joke! Was grunting out those ab crunchers as best I could ha. Loved it! Have a great day, everyone!

Two minutes into my workout, a group of out-of-towners assembled near me, listened to their preacher, and then had a very intense prayer circle (pictured). Shortly after they’d started a daycare wheeled in about 15 kids on a trolley and they were all also right next to me (also pictured). Kind of hilarious. Gotta love Brooklyn!! ❤️❤️❤️

Have gained a couple of pounds back in the last two weeks. Not thrilled about it but I knew it was happening by what I was eating. So…had fun doing the thing this morning and now back to our regularly scheduled better food choices ha. 😀😀🤓🤓

Always feel like a bad-ass when I work out in the park for some reason. Beautiful morning here in Brooklyn to do the thing. Now time to hit the showers and do the less fun thing (meaning work lol). 🤓😎💪🌞

Turned 52 this past week. I also had a very stressful week workwise which took a toll. I def ate my feelings in pizza and cake and I have no regrets lol. Didn’t jump all week but ran instead to give my pec a chance to recover. Did a jump and full body workout just now and felt good. Still not 100% so will avoid pull-ups for another week. It’s back to nyc for a week now which means early morning workouts in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park which I always find fun. Happy Sunday, gang!
