The first week of June marks the start of š Pride Month š and Global Running Day. šš¼āāļø I celebrated Global Running Day with Peloton, participated in a PLFAG āStraight for Equalityā program at work, and am looking for ways to be an active ally as the current administration attempts to silence the LGBTQ+ community and supporters.
Iāll be taking Mattyās pride class taught by his drag persona Mara š next week.Ā
Celebrating Global Running Day And Peloton Milestones
I had a quick trip to Minneapolis this week with an early flight home on Wednesday, so I wasnāt sure Iād be able to celebrate Global Running Day, but when I woke up crazy early (3:00 am) and saw Peloton already had dropped Global Running Day classes, I got out of bed and headed to the hotel gym.
I managed to stretch, shower, and check-out on time to meet my colleague at 5:25 am!
Peloton has three new Global Running Day classes this year, and Iāve now taken three of them.
The class with Katherine Switzer was really good. Of course Susie asked her about that first Boston marathon, but she also covered a lot of other topics including her current routine which still includes 5 days a week of running (sheās 78) and her plan to do Boston at least one more time when sheās 80.
Donāt tell Drake their search bar is promoting Kendrick Lamar š
I celebrated a few unofficial Peloton milestones this weekāmy daily streak reached 1800 days, my total class count hit 7525, and I took my 3250th strength class.
Weekly Wrap
What else did I do this week?
Monday, it was so cool I wore long sleeves for my run with Scooby.
By Friday it was warm and humidāand Scooby took a lot more breaks.
On Tuesday I did this stack of strength classes in the hotel gym.
When I was done with Tundeās class, a woman who had been walking on a treadmill came over and said how impressed she was by my workout. š Tunde does bring out the beast in you!
I also used the Summer of Sizzle calendar from my Peloton Breakthrough Crew group for ideas for add-on classes.
Iāll probably skip all those Pilates classes ā¦.
A huge thank you to DeborahĀ andĀ Kim for hosting the Weekly Run Down link up.
Did you get to run on Global Running Day this year?

Tunde does bring out the beast in you. I am doing her 4 week arm program again this month paired with Adrianās glutes-humbling! Have you done either of these? Highly recommend especially Adrian. I have come to enjoy the 10-15 min Pilates classes as core options
Happy Pride Month!!! I did get out for a run on global running day, but it just coincidentally fit into my schedule that way. I definitely didn’t get out of bed at 3 am to run!
Sounds like a great week with lots of fun workouts. I quit Peloton a while ago, but I will admit they have a lot of fun seasonal classes. Matty was always one of my favorites : )
Why yes, I did get out for a 1-mile run on Global Running Day! It wasn’t pretty, but I got it done.
