What Worked Well: I've been challenging myself with the distances of my mid-week runs. I ran 9 miles after work at the Lake Minnetonka LRT trail. Not a distance I was confident I could manage but I wound up having a blast. I followed that up the next week with 7 miles in Montrose.
What Worked Well Part Two: Having a strong plan about when finishers need to happen was also helpful. I did 'finishers' after every long run and at least one other time of the week, usually on Sunday. And I have a lot more 'finisher' minutes than any month previous.
What Worked Well Part Three: I found these Pilates videos on YouTube and used those as finishers several times. I've missed Pilates and it appears I will never get a class to fit back in with my schedule so these have been nice.
What Could Go Better: Fit in more Zumba. I stopped going to Zumba on Saturdays this month because of fitting in long runs for the
What Could Go Better Part Two: I kind of gave up stretching at some point. The foam roller just lost its appeal and the couch seemed too comfortable to get up.
Biggest Surprise: Only three Zumba classes all month?!?
Plan for Next Month: Go back to Zumba. For running, focus on heart rate training. Run at least a mile per day. September was all about getting ready for Loony. October is about relaxing and enjoying myself.
