Day 69

Another weekly Vault workout. This one had running and Manmakers. I obviously couldn’t run, so I walked half the distance. I probably shouldn’t have done the Manmakers, but I did then pretty slowly.  I definitely want to retest this one when I’m able to run. It will be rough!! In a good way!

This afternoon I went to the Chiropractor and got a lot out of my upper back and neck.  He also had some good insights about concussion recovery and talked about eye tracking and recovery.  I also was able to schedule my first appointment at the concussion clinic for this Friday!

It was in the mid-60’s for our afternoon walk today. Because of the adjustment I didn’t wear any weight. And we just soaked in the sun!

Day 68

This morning was my monthly bike assessment. 29:06 for 15 miles. 11 seconds slower than last month. So that’s not too bad!

This afternoon I chose to do yoga in the driveway followed by a quick battle ropes workout! You know, just to mix it up a little bit! It’s almost 60 and sunny so it was nice to be out there!

Day 67

I went to the gym and did 5/3/1 bench and shoulder press. I decided not to swim to give my head and shoulders a little bit of a break!

It so warm right now that I did my afternoon ruck with only a sweatshirt. Seeing people out running in shorts really makes me want to run!!!

Day 66

Friday!! This morning I did the next Out in the Open workout- Stonewalling. The workout looked awesome, I was just bummed I had to modify the workout again. I had signed up for the Performance division and couldn’t do either movement! 

It was wall walks and single unders! I was able to do the inchworms and mountain climbers in the Movement Division standards. Still a good workout!

Then I actually had a doctors appointment to check in about my concussion recovery. The doctor is a runner and totally understood my frustration about still not being able to workout like I want. He made a referral to the Concussion Clinic to see what suggestions they have.

Day 65

In the final stretch!! I started a yogalaties challenge at the beginning of March. So a combination of yoga and pirates. Some of them have been core killers! And some more typical yoga flows! Today was a solid combination of the two.

I finished with a Thruster and bike workout to hit my 45 minutes!

Then a nice warm walk through the wet melting snow! Most of it will be gone in the next day or so, especially if it continues to be so sunny!
