Happy (almost) 4th of July and a (belated) Canada Day! (Or Happy Wednesday to my friends in other parts of the word). I’m not really doing anything to celebrate this week, aside from enjoying the day entirely off from work. I don’t have to teach yoga, work my full-time job, or my part-time job. I’m hoping the weather clears from what they’re currently predicting so I can get in my long run for the week outside, take the puppy on several long walks, and maybe also take some time to sit by the pool and read.
This past week my team went to a local bouldering gym and I was reminded how fun it is to go bouldering! I was super sore for days but was grateful for the experience to go and I think it’s something I want to try and do more of in the near future. It’s another thing to try and fit into my marathon training schedule, so I’m not sure how often it will happen but it’s fun, tests my body, provides community, and helps me overcome my (mild) fear of heights.

How were your workouts last week? Have you ever tried bouldering?

Bouldering sounds fierce! I’ve been pretty good at keeping up disc golf almost daily. I’ve been playing at a fast pace, throwing accurately and keeping my heart rate up. It feels like a good 24-hour bubble of feeling good afterward. I love it.
I’ve not heard of bouldering before! Sounds intense. Great job with your training! Enjoy your day off!
Bouldering sounds so interesting! I bet it does make you sore though! Nothing wrong with no major plans for the 4th of July holiday. Sometimes it’s nice to just relax!
