Craving Cardio {Weekly Workouts}

September 29, 2014 by Hillary 5 Comments

Hey friends! I hope you had a lovely first fall weekend.

It’s going to be a long Monday for me today after getting home at 1:00am from the Jason Aldean concert… but well worth it. Last night’s show was such a blast!

However, after running 7.25 miles and dancing for three hours (plus the lack of sleep), today is going to be slow moving to say the least. Speaking of moving…

Let’s talk about last week’s workouts. After last Sunday’s strength-heavy play date at the WREC, my body was beat up and didn’t want anything to do with a weight the first half of the week. I craved cardio all week long. Some weeks, one run is enough, while others, I can’t get enough of it. That’s intuitive exercise for ya!

Workouts | Week of September 22

Monday – Rest 

Tuesday – 30 minute run + (5x) 20 box jumps / 20 walking lunges / 20 jump squats

Wednesday – 45 min. indoor cycle

Thursday – 60 min. indoor cycle – sweaty!

Friday – 60 min. easy yoga class + 30 min. run + 30 sets of stairs + 3 x 30 sec. plank + Sculpted Summer Arms Workout

Saturday – 30 min. run

Sunday – 7.25 mile run

longest run in ages; enjoyed the cool autumn weather (including a few rain sprinkles!)

Do you exercise intuitively or stick to a plan?

    I’m so glad the concert was fun! I heart country music. Who is your favorite artist?
    I feel ya with the workouts – some weeks I get run down and lack of sleep catches up to me and all I want to do is some easy cardio. It goes in spurts.

    woo! cardio crazy!! I tend to stick to a general guideline with my lifting days, but I switch up the days I do them and what I do exercises wise!

    I stick to a general plan, but give myself room to do what I want. If I’m not into it, it’s not going to be a good workout anyways!

Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴 I was expect Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴

I was expecting all things beer, brats and pretzels in Leavenworth (not really my jam) 🍺🥨🧀, and while there’s plenty of it, I was delighted to find plenty of delicious eats for my “foodie” taste. 

We went to all of these 3 places more than once during our quick stay - highly recommend! 

☕️ @argonautespressobar: Located at one end of Front Street, this adorable coffee bar has delicious espresso drinks, breakfast items, and the best view! 

🥐 @tumwaterbakery: Incredible pastries, avocado toast on artisanal bread that’s a feast for your eyes... and I’m eager to go back and try their wood-fired pizza! 

🍜 @yodelinbroth: Literally some of the best food I’ve had (ever!), and that’s saying a lot. I had the Yodelin soup with housemade wild PNW halibut bone coconut curry broth, udon noodles, heaps of veggies and wild salmon - it was nourishing to my core as we ate it outside in 30 degree weather. I even bought some of the broth to recreate this meal at home, yum!

winter wonderland getaway ✔️ We had snow much winter wonderland getaway ✔️

We had snow much fun exploring the picturesque Bavarian town of Leavenworth, WA for a much-needed mid-week getaway to the mountains. 🏔

We stayed in a cozy little cabin @logecamps right on the Wenatchee River (one day I’ll be back to stay at the stunning @phleavenworth), played in Enchantment Park, took a drive to Lake Wenatchee, and discovered some of the best food downtown (I’m saving my food recs for another post).

Nestled between the snow-capped Cascade Mountains with the river running through town, it’s quite magical in the middle of winter. ❄️ I’m already dreaming of heading back for some summer adventures!
I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in Florida for two years.
