Hooray, it was PeloFondo Weekend again this week! This was going to be my 8th (!) PeloFondo – can you believe it? Tanja and I signed up again with our Streakers Team (the same team we join for the Power Zone Challenges) and I even got my sister to commit to riding some miles for our team. All the #BCBabes¹ were signed up as well.  It’s always better to ride with friends.

Monday

• 10 Min Focus Flow: Wrists – Kristin (5/29/24) — Summer Radiance

I took a rest day today and only did a couple of short yoga classes in the morning for my trackers.

• 10 Min Full Body Stretch – Ross (6/6/24)
• 10 Min Sleep Meditation – Ross (3/14/22) — Summer Radiance

Another rest day…. who am I? :) Engie asked in my last Weekly Rundown what would happen to my body if I took a rest day or if I get sore from inactivity. Haha. I know it seems like the logical conclusion, right? In fact, all that happens is that I get ‘antsy’ to get back to my routine. But I do take rest days, for the record.

Wednesday

Sherry, Lindsay, and I did an old focus flow with Kristin and now I remember why I bookmarked. It was really good. We also did a Flash 15 with Jess Sims and then a bike bootcamp with Callie. Sherry and I added a climb ride one for the Road Trip tracker. I was ready to shower when my sister (in Germany) texted me to say that she was going to the gym and was hoping to ride with me. So instead of showering, I got some work done first and then hopped onto the bike again for a 30-minute 80s Rock Ride with my sister. It’s always so much fun to ride together – even across time zones!

Tanja and I met up for a bike bootcamp this morning and Sherry, Lindsay, and Kristin joined us for the Family Meditation afterward. The meditation with Kristin was from 2021, but it was wonderful – both the mantras and the meditation music. I finished with a core yoga flow.

Today was the first day of PeloFondo! But before hopping on the bike to log miles for my Streakers365 team, I had a 90-minute long run on my running schedule. Eek. I got out early and we finally had some pleasant overnight temperatures in the mid-50s. It was such perfect running weather.

When I came back, I hopped on the bike and started pedaling my legs out. As mentioned, I had invited my sister (in Germany) to join for PeloFondo and log some miles for my team, so we did Bradley’s Aerosmith Ride together. She had already done another ride beforehand and didn’t have more time, but I got to ride the next few rides with some of the #BCBabes. Yay. Denis’ Rock Ride was my favorite. He was in a rocking mood and the playlist was amazing. The ride got bookmarked!

Today was Day 2 of the PeloFondo and the #BCBabes and I had put together an all “Denis Stack” for the day (we’re all big fans of Denis!). It was such a fun day to ride and collect miles together for our Streakers365 team. My favorite ride was – again – another 30-minute Rock Ride. Can you sense a theme here? I bookmarked the ride to take again later. Great playlist!

Tanja’s and my workout times unfortunately didn’t overlap this weekend, but she finished an impressive amount of miles this weekend herself.

I joined for Serenity Sunday later in the afternoon. Restorative yoga felt just right after getting 40 miles yesterday and 65 miles today for a total of 105 miles for the PeloFondo weekend!
