Day 10

Day 10 was supposed to be a typical Wednesday but I slept in and missed step aerobics. I hate it when I do that, but I take it with a grain of salt as my bodies own way of saying “stay down!” So I obey and make adjustments. Missing my cardio session in the morning always puts me in a funk, but I knew that I would be cranking one out later that night with my friends, so it was okay. I ran through a lower body workout at home consisting of hundreds of step ups on my 16″ bench, squats, lunges and a tune up on my TRX functional routine I am creating for snowboarders. Lots of toe and heel work; I can’t wait to try it out on someone. The best part was that my son was able to join me, which always makes it fun! We goof around and jump and laugh and get crazy. He even picked up my 15 pound kettle bell and walked it to the other side of the room. I forgot how much I love farmer carriers! That evening I met a couple of my friends for a trail run, ate dinner and called it a day.
