This weekend was spent recovering from the first week of school! And then getting ready for the next week of school! It's a never-ending cycle lol!
Friday after school my co-worker Allison and I went to Starbucks for our celebratory "we survived the first week of school" frappuccino!
Later that afternoon Sawyer left with friends to go to a birthday party at an indoor trampoline place. He had an absolute blast! Andy, Hayden, and I headed to the Brendel's house for a celebratory first week of school survival pizza dinner! And then some Mexican train dominoes. It was a fun night!
Saturday morning I woke early and got in an 8 mile run for half marathon training! I will tell you more about my run on Wednesday!
I came home and got showered and had my breakfast and coffee. While eating Archie came and got into his crate all on his own and laid down! I think he may be starting to like it a little bit!
He also enjoyed several naps on the couch this weekend!! :-)
Here's another Archie pic....just because he's so cute!!!
Andy and Hayden were attending a Boy Scout event all morning and part of the afternoon. So Sawyer and I went out for lunch, went to the pet store, and grocery shopped for this week! Fun times lol!
When Andy and Hayden got home we all went out for some frozen yogurt!
The next morning I asked Archie if he wanted to go for a run with me. He got so excited and gave me a hug so I took that as a yes! He did great on the run! We still need to work on turns and not wanting to stop and smell and meet every person that walks or runs by. Luckily he doesn't try to smell and pee on everything during the run. He runs right beside me...unless he sees another person and then he wants to be their friend. We've got to work on this but hopefully he will get it soon. I'm loving having him as a running buddy!
Now it's time for the Weekly Chase! It's a new week and I have new goals to achieve! I hope you will link up your own goals with me too! And feel free to use the badge below in your post too! You can grab the badge HERE! :-)
Here are my goals from last week!
Goal #1: Run every day! Yes! I got up early and got my run in before school. It was tough getting up so early but I have to get back into the routine!
Goal #2: Roll, stretch, and ice daily. 50%. I'm not where I need to be with this but I'm trying.
Goal #3: Maintain my weight by logging my calories. Yes! But I will admit I ate too much leftover cake from Sawyer's birthday this week. Luckily my runs and walks balanced it out.
Goal #4: Move 11,000 steps or more each day this week. Yes! It was tougher to get in all my steps now that I'm back at work. But I did it!
Goal #5: Run at least 1 run under 2 miles. No. I still ran a little over 2 miles every day. I need to run at least one run under 2 miles each week as a recovery day. It's just so hard because I get out there and feel so good!
Goal #6: Take at least one walk this week. Yes! I've taken several walks with Archie this week!
Goal #7: Strength train at least 2 times this week. Yes! Yay!
