Erin Go Bragh, Expo and Last week’s workouts

The weekend flew by in a hot second! On Saturday my husband and I went to the Adirondack Sports and Fitness Summer Expo. I signed up for two races and saved $5 on each one. Plus I signed my daughter up for one of them and saved $5 more. I also got a purple t-shirt (free) from a group that I hiked with last year. I made a mistake when I was signing up for the hikeathon last year and checked “no shirt” instead of “yes shirt”. I don’t like accumulating too much but I do use the t-shirts when I work out. The Expo definitely gets you thinking about fun things to do outdoors this summer. It was a typical late winter day - warm and sunny when we went in and windy and snow flurries when we came out.

Mostly it was about St. Patrick’s Day and I’m not even Irish. We met family out for dinner on Saturday night. We kinda sorta forgot about St. Patty’s Day, and the place we picked was having a special weekend. It turned out Ok because they had a tent set up for overflow and we sat there. The tent was warmer and quieter than the main restaurant. It was nice catching up with family.

On Sunday another cousin had us over for a St. Patrick’s dinner. I baked a lemon bundt cake and colored the inside green. I used this recipe from  Lovefromtheoven.com and it was yummy.

Last week’s workouts: On Monday I ran 3 miles, on Wednesday I did Zumba with Michelle, and on Sunday I ran 4 miles. I was hoping to have another four - workout week like the week before but it didn’t happen. I might seem like I’m always motivated, but make no mistake about it, sometimes it takes effort to get out that door.

Here’s what’s going on in my world:
