16 weeks ’til #IMLou – ✓, ✓, ✓

Last week was a week of checking tasks off the list. One step, then another. One box after another. Seeing the check marks kept me focused and brought a smile to my face. Swim =✓ Bike =✓ Run =✓ Strength Training =✓ Substitute TRX Instructor =✓ Volunteer =✓ Complete course work =✓ Personal Training Recertification = ✓

Swim: 10,164 yards

The peace and quiet in the calm water is just what I needed today!

Happy summer solstice + #nationalselfieday!! #coeurfie

Bike: 65.5 miles

Run: 20.6 miles

So grateful for cooler temps so this bubble gum tongue could run 10 miles with me this morning! #basillovesrunning

Super happy to pound the pavement for another 8 miles (including speed work) with my favorite girl this morning!! #basillovesrunning #lovemybubblegumtongue

Strength Training: 10 minutes of core strength daily + 1 hour & 15 minutes full body strength

Basil and Mya helped me with my strength training today!!

Weekly Totals: 13 hours & 39 minutes

Quote of the Week:

“I started calling my ‘to do’ list my ‘taa daa’ list. Now when I cross things off, I’m like, ‘taa daa!! Getting shit done!'” ~Unknown

Attitude of Gratitude:

Love my girl!! So grateful for her snuggles and unconditional love!!

So grateful for the post workout squeeze from my Normatec Recovery boots!!

When it storms, the babies want LOTS of snuggles and to be in the basement…I’m glad I get to comfort them!!

SO INCREDIBLY GRATEFUL to have Breakthrough Nutrition in my tribe!! With all of the heat + humidity lately, I’m excited to give the Preload a try!!

Grateful to get the opportunity to be the lead bike for the local 5K + 10K race to support Iowa Able!! My fave directed traffic at the finish area!!

Completed my American Council on Exercise Personal Training Recertification with 5 days to spare!! 🙂

A sweet reward for finishing my personal training recertification.

How was your week? What are you grateful for this week?! How do you feel when you check a task off your “taa daa” list?!

Love the idea of a “taa daa list”! You accomplished a lot this week and got back to strength and core training-well done. I’m grateful that summer vacation is almost here!! The boys are done of school on Wednesday and I’m am leaving for my dreamy solo road trip on Friday (and the weather is looking a bit better). This week is going to drag, isn’t it? 😉
