Another week down and another week with a broken toe and no running. Especially now that FALL is here (the best running season), it’s been a struggle for me mentally. I realize how much I rely on running to keep me sane, but I’m grateful to have other ways of getting in some activity.
While weight lifting doesn’t offer me the same boost mentally, or using my indoor bike or rower, it does provide me some fitness and something new for me to do. I’m in week 4 of my weight training and definitely noticing the workouts getting easier. Since I haven’t yet invested in any weights, for the workouts that are easier, I’m instead doing some more reps or trying to do them slower. It’s fun to feel like I’m getting stronger, at least in my weight-lifting!
Here’s what the week looked like:
