The Tao of Me

Last week’s workouts looked much like the previous weeks — no running: Sunday Core Fusion Arms & Abs, followed by Core Fusion Yoga Monday AM: Spin + Core class PM: Skipped yoga in lieu of going to the SF Giants game Tuesday AM: 2500 meter Swim PM: Rest Wednesday AM: Stairmill (the one where the [...]

Earlier this year I followed along while my bloggy friends, Jess and Jo, did a 30-day Core Fusion Challenge. It sounded a lot like the Dailey Method classes I’d been taking. So when I visited New York last month, I made it a point to attend a Core Fusion class so I could experience it [...]

Last week was the 21st week of the year. Random fact, I know, but I tend to be full of them. I usually write these posts at the end of the week but the laziness of the long weekend took over so I’m playing a little catch up. Sunday Donut Run! Monday AM: I rode [...]

Workouts AM: Weights, Spin, and 30-minute Core Class PM: Yoga After Saturday’s 15-miler, we went to Scottsdale Stadium for our final Spring ball game, ate lunch at the Yard House (of course!) and then had more pool time. I finished off the day with a massage at the spa. My right IT band wasn’t feeling [...]

AM: Spin + Core Class PM: Yoga Today was a pretty non-descript day. In fact, I almost skipped writing a post today because I didn’t really have much to say. I woke up at 4:30 am, got out of bed at 4:45 am, ate breakfast and was at the gym by 5:15 am. I did [...]
