Overview: I did a bit of swimming, strength training, and actually played volleyball this week! The Sweat Pink #HolidaySweat Challenge started this week, and so far I have checked off my 10 minutes of exercise each day. Monday I went swimming once again! Tuesday I taught my 45-minute SPARK class. I played coed volleyball for…
“Oh, the weather outside is frightful…” Fortunately, we’re not there yet in the DC Metro Area (or the DMV as we call it to confuse everyone else), but I believe it’s coming soon! We mostly skipped over fall this year, with just a few fall days sprinkled into this early winter. So, with colder temperatures…
It’s that time of the week again! I’m linking up with Kim and Deborah for the Weekly Run Down. Monday I’m actually starting to enjoy these little swim sessions I’ve been fitting in! Just 30 minutes is plenty of time in the pool for me. As I continue with my classes, these 30 minutes will…
Today, I’m recapping my last week! I’ve been trying to join the Weekly Run Down linkup regularly, but this week is a bit hectic with my organization’s last major event of the calendar year taking place this week. Even though I missed the linkup cutoff time, I still wanted to share this info with all…

Can you believe it’s already November?? I know I can’t!! 2019 has just flown on by! But, alas. Here we are. And here are my goals for November 2019 (with the huge caveat being that some of these will require my sprained ankle to be healed first!): Attend All of My Swim Classes – I…
Last week was filled with a lot of indoor cycling, and not much else. My sprained ankle is still giving me problems, and it’s started to make me angry. I just want to run! And do some lower body strength training! Nonetheless, the main thing about sprained ankles is that you just have to rest in…
I haven’t written one of these “what I’m up to this week” posts in a hot minute, so I thought I’d post one today! Check out the fitness-related activities I’m planning to get into this week! Check out my Instagram stories for more info Monday Tomorrow, I’m teaching a 6am indoor cycling class. It’s a regular…
