Weekly Recap: October Week 5

November 4, 2012 | blogging, Disney, fitness, running, Travel

 

Good morning! We are headed down to Orlando today, and had fun spectating at ironman Florida yesterday. My sister survived and did very well, and now we are headed to Disney, because Bobby and I have a race to run next weekend!

Let’s take a look at my workouts from this last week. If you will remember, the weekend before (Saturday) I ran the Jazz half marathon, so I took the week pretty easy and didn’t run until Thursday trying to let my arch heal.

Sunday: rest (day after half marathon)

Monday lift upper body weights, 30 minutes stationary bike

Tuesday: lift weights, upper body, 30 minutes stationary bike

Wednesday: off (was wearing holter monitor)

Thursday: upper body weights, 4.5 mile treadmill run

Friday: rest/travel

Saturday: ironman spectating (walked about 2.5 miles total, some in the sand, ran about .5 miles trying to catch my sister to take pictures.

——————————————————

This week will be interesting, and won’t be a typical pre half marathon race week. We will be in Florida all week, walking around a lot and eating sodium filled restaurant food. Oh well. What can you do. It will be a really fun race, we just won’t be getting very many miles in (except walking) or eating healthy foods. Today we check in and head to EPCOT for the Food and Wine Festival before running wine and dine!

    Have fun in WDW! Looking forward to your recaps, and seeing photos from Food and Wine.

    Again, I’m super jealous that you’re heading to Disney. How long does it take you to get to Orlando?

I started noticing little signs during my normal day. Just occasional bloating, gas, and that slightly “off” feeling. So instead of ignoring it, I listened. I slowed down, moved more consistently, and added Align Probiotic to my routine.

It’s one capsule a day and the #1 doctor-recommended probiotic brand for over 15 years‡. I started taking Align to help relieve my occasional gas, bloating, and stomach discomfort* and now I feel more comfortable moving through my day. @alignprobiotic

And now… it finally will be. 🤍

We’re not leaving Tennessee, just making a local move that puts us closer to my daughter’s school, closer to our day-to-day life, and honestly closer to the version of life I’ve been hoping for since we moved here. (Aka not so much time in the car!) 

Still Knoxville. New chapter. Lots of boxes. Please pray. 🏡📦

Between dogs, snacks that never make it to a plate, and whatever is happening in my entryway on a daily basis… I needed something that could actually keep up in one go. This one’s been doing the heavy lifting so I’m not doing 12 different cleanups for the same mess. 

Life doesn’t happen in neat, single-surface moments. From pet hair to crumbs to tracked-in grass, real homes have layered messes. The BISSELL PowerClean DualBrush™ is designed to handle it all in one pass without switching tools or going over the same spot twice. 

Promotion: List Price $359.99, on sale for $259.99 ($100 off) from 4/5–5/30. Limited time only, don’t miss it. Link in bio to shop while the deal lasts 👀

I clipped the 4x fuel points digital coupon on the Kroger app, grabbed a Mastercard gift card at Kroger, and turned a quick errand into a little win-win situation by adding in a handmade colored card and personalized note. She gets to pick exactly what she wants. 💛 

I get 4X fuel points while I’m already out running around (because of course I am). Simple, thoughtful, and honestly kind of perfect. 
Head to your local Kroger, clip the coupon, and grab a Visa or Mastercard gift card, but the offer is only good through May 12! Link is in my bio!

Disney dads aren’t born… they’re created one character meal at a time. 🏰 

Tag a Disney dad in your life! (Maybe one you helped create? 😂👀)

#ZbarPartner I know these days won’t last forever, #ZbarPartner I know these days won’t last forever, so I’m soaking up every driveway game, every laugh, every little break in the grass. 🤍 

Lately our go-to has been Zbar Protein Snack Bars, especially the new Strawberries ‘N Creme flavor that is made with organic whole grain oats, real fruit, and protein to help support growing kids. It’s a snack she loves and I feel good about too. 

It’s a great little reset so she can get right back to doing what she does best, playing her heart out 💕

Getting older, I started noticing my hair wasn’t q Getting older, I started noticing my hair wasn’t quite the same. A little more thinning, my scalp hasn’t felt the same, and I’ve spent more time just throwing it up into a ponytail, and honestly not giving it much thought beyond that. 🤷🏻‍♀️

So I started becoming more intentional about actually taking care of my hair and scalp, and it’s such a small shift, but it really does make me feel better.

I’ve been using Mochi Health’s personalized hair support options, which makes it easier to stay consistent instead of guessing what to use. It fits into my routine and finally feels like I’m doing something proactive for myself instead of just hiding it in a bun. Check out the link in my bio for $40 off your first month.
