Have you ever seen Groundhog Day? It’s a movie I thoroughly enjoy (I love almost all time travel, time loop, etc. movies and books) and a few days this week felt like I was living in the movie itself. Not only was Groundhog Day this week coincidentally, but there were a few days this week that felt the same. Went to bed, snowing. Woke up, snowing. Snow day for all three kids (daycare and school was closed). Repeat.
Once again, though, I’m grateful for my treadmill! We had one seasonably warm day – Wednesday – before another 15 inches of snow dropped on us, but I wasn’t able to get outside and run with the baby sleeping. But thanks to the treadmill, I was able to run indoors! AND — on Saturday, I had plans to attend the Cleveland Marathon Kickoff Run. They had to change the course due to the weather and unplowed streets, but it was my first outdoor run in 2+ weeks and it was great to run with people!
Here’s what the week looked like:
Sunday: 4.5 treadmill miles + snowy walk with the kids
Monday: 5 treadmill miles
Tuesday: 5.2 treadmill miles + walk
Wednesday: 5.03 treadmill miles
Thursday: 4.3 treadmill miles
Friday: 5.06 treadmill miles
Saturday: 2.84 OUTDOOR MILES
Total mileage: 32.4 miles
I didn’t do much besides running this week. I was able to fit in a plank most day, plus a few tricep dips, and a few walks. We got outside for a walk on Sunday, and it was great to finally be outside! The kids did great and we even got to walk on a frozen lake, which they loved.
This was Sunday on our snowy walk on the snow lake, before our additional snow storm.
Saturday, I got outside for a group run in the snow. It was sunny but COLD and I’m so glad I got outside again!
Questions for you:
- Do you like time travel/time loop books or movies? Any faves to recommend?
- How often do you do group runs?
Linking up with Deborah and Kim for the Weekly Run Down.
