Good Morning LWL
Hope you all had a good weekend. Last week was wild and the weekend wilder for me. I had 18 people including 4 under the age of 4 in my very "un-baby proofed home" on Saturday for a 30th anniversary dinner for my father and step-mother. I managed to work myself into such a frenzy over the cooking and cleaning that by the time everything was finally done and dinner made, all plans of sensible eating and drinking went out the window. And we had a lot of left overs! Luckily they were healthy, just not in the quantity I initially consumed Now I have about three weeks before my next major upheaval which is a trip out to Boulder with my son to visit my mother and take son to camp.
On Saturday morning I had one client and a crazy cardio/leg workout before the cleaning and cooking frenzy started. I'm still sore I found a great workout partner: one of my dd's old high school lacrosse team members! Only problem is that she is 26 years younger than me My gym just bought a weight sled: exactly what it sounds like, with a set of straps and a body harness. We have a long paved hill behind the gym with a parking lot at the top and a grassy area beyond that. We put the sled on the grass, marked out 100 yards, then started at the top of the hill. Did backwards lunges down the hill, forwards lunges up the hill, then one of us ran the 100 yards on the grass with the weight sled with 30 pounds on plates on it, and the other sprinted minus the sled. At the finish line, we switched the sled, then repeated the running with and without the sled interval, then headed back to hill lunges. Repeated for 40 minutes. I think we did run/lunge intervals five times. I haven't been this sore in years! We both thought it would be our hamstrings, but I feel it mostly in my upper quads and rear end
I'm going to miss spinning today because school is over and "between client time" will be used to drive ds to a friend's house. I'm probably to sore for spinning anyway. Not looking forward to the summer juggle!
How are you all doing?
