I can’t remember which Peloton instructor said it–Tunde? Alex?–but the notion that you have to endure to adapt really struck me, and has stuck with me.
It applies to enduring tough workout intervals to adapt and get stronger, and to enduring tough life situations to adapt and realize how strong you are.
It’s easy to write a Valentine to running, but treadmill running? What is there to love about a piece of workout equipment many refer to as a dreamill?
It may be hard to believe, but after four weeks of running in my basement gym, I’ve come to realize there are reasons to love treadmill running.
How does the saying go? A goal without a plan is just a wish? That’s what I came face to face with when I realized I didn’t have a plan to support my goal of running 85 miles/month.
Even worse, I realized my recent schedule alternating treadmill days with bike days was going to leave me far short of reaching my goal.
Welcome to the February 2021 edition of the Ultimate Coffee Date. As we commence our twelfth month of pandemic living, I want to express how much I’ve been loving our coffee dates. I look forward to going off script and connecting with everyone on a different level to strengthen our sense of community. Deborah and I encourage you to spread the love and visit new blogs in the link up.

As I approach three weeks since my fall, the good news is I am feeing better. That makes it harder to take it easy with my workouts, though. As I try to keep making progress on the road to recovery I am seeking the right balance between workouts so light they leave me frustrated and those that cross the line and leave me hurting.
I am trying hard to listen to my body, but sometimes it’s sending me mixed messages!
Deborah and I will be hosting the February Ultimate Coffee Date next weekend. We’ll open the (link-up) doors Friday February 5th, and keep the coffee brewing.
