After work I headed to Baxter Boulavard to get in a run! It was a beautiful evening for it! I feel blessed that this is my city! Running is my, ME time. I get to make plans, dreams and goals with myself and answer questions that I have when the day gets so busy I forget to breath. It's just me and my music. Stride for stride I am looking for the next destination or opportunity to arise!
I posted this on Instagram but I feel it's a very powerful quote! "Just remember there is someone out there that is more happy with less than what you have." Sometimes we get so caught up in our lives that we forget to enjoy what we have and stop wishing we had more. There are so many homeless people just wishing they had a home or shelter or shoes on their feet. There are people without jobs that would give anything to be employed. Take a moment to look at your life as a spectator and realize all the things you have to be grateful for! Write them down. When you start to get worked up look back and remember you are blessed, and you are exactly where you are supposed to be!
A little inspiration from Alex & Ani:
Tuesday started with an hour of hot yoga and a fruit smoothie I made with my magic bullet! I used strawberries, blueberries, banana, protein powder and coffee! Blended it all together to creat a great healthy start!
After work I had Seal's Swimming Dryland Training! I had 8 kids tonight and we ha a blast! They didn't love getting getting covered in grass but at the end I asked what they thought and they felt great! From that they headed into the pool, where I have no experience, and swam for the next hour!
I headed home and started working with my new client one on one! She is am amazing 16 year old girl full of life and excitement! We have so much in common and I feel privileged to be working with her! I've got some really fun ideas up my sleeve for us to make exercising fun!
I started Wesnesday, such a memorable and important day to our country with my toughest workout of the week! I woke up with the help of Head Trainer Brayton Chase at Maniac Crossfit! I had a great workout and really pushed myself!
Followed by another yummy shake I made! A pretty powerful start to my day!
Wednesday night my team played their first game at SMCC! It was sooooo hot! I felt terrible for the girls as I was sweating coaching. They worked so hard and I am so proud of them. One of the upperclassmen printed off a quote that all the girls put in their socks and played with! It was a great choice!
I snapped a quick shot during warm ups! We had 14 girls and they all played with 100% the entire game!
Today being 9/11 we, as Americans, have been extremely grateful! My team over at the bPositive Project posted this gorgeous photo in remembrance!
Thursday came quick, and it was greatly appreciated! It was a Hot Yoga day! And it felt so good after a tough Crossfit workout on Wednesday! My quads have so much built up lactic acid. The foam roller has been my best friend, but so painful. It's a good pain... Right? Anyone who has one knows exactly what I am talking about! Yoga really loosened me up! After work I was suppose to have Seals Dryland Training, but the weather cancelled it. I was bummed as I had a super fun workout planned for the kids! I guess they will just have to wait until next week!
Instead of training I came home to a very scared dog. Hence why Cyn was trying to calm her down. Haha.
We've been back an forth about getting a Thunder Jacket because we are not sure they work. So tonight I got out one of my tight tank tops and put it on Bela and surprisingly she was so much more calm! It was crazy! She looks soooooo funny!
We spent the night relaxing. We had breakfast for dinner :) and watched the Pats until we fell asleep. It was a nice, quiet night in! I'm always grateful for nights like these! We've got a pretty great life and on days like this we are easily reminded of it!
Jump started my Friday with a great workout at Maniac CrossFit! We did Deadlifts for Strength and our Metcon was Pull-ups & Box Jumps! First round 21 reps, second round 15 reps and third round 9 reps!
After work we celebrated me Grandfathers 84th Birthday! So lucky to have him around!
Friday night we went out to celebrate with our friends on their recent engagement! We had such a great time and love having really genuine people in our lives!
Saturday morning my Mom and I went to Zone 3 Fitness on Route One in Scarborough for a circuit training class!
We had a great workout, surrounded by great motivation!
Mom & I had a blast!
I headed home where we stacked 2 tons of pellets! Officially ready for winter!
After I had a one on one training session with an amazing young ladie! We walk/ jogged about 3 miles! We went past the horse farm! What a beautiful day!
We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day as SJCWS logged their first GNAC game! What a great game played by the girls! I was so proud to be there!
Following the game we stopped at Gilbert's Chowder House for Happy Hour with my parents, then headed home for a movie and ice cream with Pammy!
Cyn and Bela fell asleep holding hands!
Sunday morning we went to The Egg & I with Pam, Pete, Murph & the boys! Followed by a trip to Memere's to visit with the Webster's! We did a lot of cleaning and decided to take Bela to Mackworth Island!
She loved it!
Such a gorgeous day!
We headed home just in time for Football to start! Cyn made her first Spinach Artichoke Dip! It was so delicious! I'm lucky she's such a great cook!
