- 10 Min Cool Down: Palomar Mountain – CDE (4/29/24)
- 10 Min Focus Flow: Hips – Kristin (5/14/24) — Personal Streak
It was Tanja’s birthday and I am sure we would have done a “birthday ride”, if Tanja wasn’t sick right now. I hope she feels better soon because the next Power Zone Challenge is coming up in June.
Speaking of which, Sherry, Kristin, and (maybe) Melissa have decided to join us this time for PZ this time. This morning, I tackled the Palomar Mountain Climb with Sherry and Kristin and we all agreed that it felt more like a Power Zone endurance ride than a climb, because CDE kept the resistance below 55 and cadence relatively high the whole time. This prompted a conversation and ended with their subsequent decision to join for the next PZ Challenge (I am sure the incentive to win a Peloton tread or rower through PZPack also helped) and I am so freakin’ excited.

Today was Melissa’s birthday and we celebrated her (and two of her milestones and one of Kristin’s milestones) on Anna’s Barre Class and Jenn’s 80s Ride and she got shoutouts from both instructors! Hooray! That’s like hitting the jackpot.
I also finally rode my (outdoor) bike to work again for the first time since last summer.

I let myself sleep in until 9 am and had a lovely and slow Saturday morning. I didn’t start my workout until the early afternoon when I warmed up with Ally’s Barre class and then headed out for JJ’s 30-minute Rolling Stone run. What a great playlist. I took Mariana’s Mindful Walking Meditation as a recovery/cool-down run and added another 20-minute walk to get me home.

Lisa @ TechChick Adventures
May 26, 2024 at 6:34 pmThat would be fun to get a shoutout from the instructors! Housework, yardwork and gardening all count as workouts :) Enjoy the holiday!
San
May 31, 2024 at 3:16 pmHaha, I think so too… anything where you move your body counts as a workout :)
Kimberly Hatting
May 26, 2024 at 7:15 pmAs always, a great mix of workouts & lots of action! You definitely keep busy on a daily basis!
San
May 31, 2024 at 3:16 pmThanks Kim, I know you relate :)
Deborah Brooks
May 26, 2024 at 7:18 pmAnother busy week for you! It is great that you have so many Peloton connections. Still don’t know how you keep up!
San
May 31, 2024 at 3:17 pmHaha, I don’t know myself sometimes… but working out with friends makes it easier for sure.
Wendy
May 27, 2024 at 4:36 amWhat a busy week of workouts! And yes, cleaning the patio also counts. The hubs and I did a lot of that over the weekend, so I know of what I speak! :p
San
May 31, 2024 at 3:17 pmYes, for also getting your patio cleaned up!
Lisa’s Yarns
May 27, 2024 at 4:47 amSleeping in until 9 sounds so delightful! I feel like I would need to take a tranquilizer to do that. Ha. Right now my sleep is so horrible thanks to being on steroids so even sleeping until 6 is challenging which is annoying because then I get so tired mid day.
You had a great week of workouts!! My milestone of last week was running 5.75 miles on Saturday. I haven’t ran that long in over a year I think!
San
May 31, 2024 at 3:18 pmI know so many people who have trouble sleeping in… I am sorry about that (and I am thankful I sleep so “easily”).
Great Saturday run, my friend. I know you treasure those.
Elisabeth
May 27, 2024 at 5:11 amYay for biking to work. A great summer milestone!
San
May 31, 2024 at 3:18 pmWith all the structured workouts that I do, I still love everyday movements!
Coco
May 28, 2024 at 4:47 amSounds like a great week. LOL on recruiting friends to do PZ with you. I’ve got no motivation to do that test!
San
May 31, 2024 at 3:19 pmThe test is the worst of it, the PZ rides are super-fun and motivating IMHO :)
Jenny
May 31, 2024 at 3:19 pmSounds like you had a great week and thoroughly enjoyed your workouts! A huge hooray for biking to work, and also cleaning the patio. It’s way too hot for patio cleaning here, but that’s okay- it’s also too hot to sit out there. I’ll just stay inside with the AC blasting!
San
May 31, 2024 at 3:21 pmHaha, Jenny, I definitely understand about it being to hot to sit outside… it’ll be too hot here too pretty soon, so I wanted to take advantage of the few weeks that are moderate.
Anne
June 16, 2024 at 6:53 amOh, yay! Biking to work! Sounds like you were back to the usual fun stuff this week, and getting to do it with friends is a huge bonus. I love how all of you in the BCBabes support each other. What a lovely community you have built. :)
