This weekend, I got two workouts in. Neither was hardcore, but right now it's just important for me to get in the habit of making the workouts happen at all.
On Saturday afternoon, Kyle and I did a 30 minute jog around the neighborhood and a little core work after.
On Sunday, Kyle and I drove up to Sonoma County to do a 30-mile bike ride. The ride starts and ends in the cutest town of Healdsburg. It was a bit colder than expected when we arrived, about 40 degrees even though it was already 11am. We swung by the local bike shop to buy skull caps for under our helmets but they were sold out, so we had to be true Minnesotans and tough out it. Once we got going it wasn't too bad, but we were very thankful we brought warm gloves.
The ride wasn't too strenuous, but we hadn't been out on a good ride in weeks. It was more about getting back in the saddle (pun intended) and our butts and backs definitely felt that we hadn't been in that position for a while. By the end of our ride, we were warm except for our toes despite new SmartWool biking socks. We might have to consider buying shoe covers if we ride in those temps again. As our reward, we finished the afternoon off with lunch and Bloody Marys at the Healdsburg Bar & Grill.
This week (M-F) my goal is to get at least 5 workouts in, hopefully including 2 swims and at least one ride or spinning class.
