And we’re off! Terry and I rushed to finish our giant to-do
list this morning (packing, cleaning up, playing and cuddling with Scout, etc.)
and are now at the airport waiting to board. The stress of traveling gets me
all riled up, so this morning I added a last-minute workout in order to relieve
some stress and feel a little less guilty about all the food I plan to eat over
the next eight days. At first, I had planned a tough pyramid workout, but my
first three minutes on the treadmill felt so difficult that I revised the plan
immediately. I plan to revisit my original pyramid workout eventually, but
today I switched it up.
Workout: Cardio +
Chest & Back
Run 1 mile at 7.0 mph
Bench press: 15 reps at 40 lbs.
Lat pull downs: 15 reps at 50 lbs.
10 push ups
Repeat twice, for a total of three miles and three sets of strength
exercises.
After the workout, I met up with my friend Amanda for a late
breakfast and to catch up on her first quarter away in Chicago at business
school. It was wonderful to see her and enjoy a short time together before we
both continued on our busy ways.
Terry and I left for the airport around 1:30 and will continue
with our adventure in Paris!
