Being a Duck

As expected this week’s schedule was off the chain but I’m happy to say that all went well, including a successful fundraising event for work! Knowing what was on deck, my approach to my workouts was to do what I could when I could. Here’s how my week in fitness played out.

Week 19 – Being a Duck

Monday — 1.5-mile walk.
Tuesday — 2-mile walk, Upper Body Strength & Stretch.
Wednesday –– 4-mile run, Core & Stretch.

Thursday — 1-mile walk, Lower Body Strength & Stretch.
Friday — 3-mile run, Core & Stretch.
Saturday — Peloton bike, 2-mile walk & full-body strength courtesy of yard work

Working on reducing this mulch pile

Another busy week awaits so I’ll be spending the rest of today relaxing and soaking up the sunshine!
