Week 9 Recap
There wasn't much to recap for this week as I tried to run on three days, but decided to stay away from the weights do to the upcoming vacation we had and since we were driving, I could not be in that discomfort I was in and survive this trip.
Week 10 Recap
It was officially vacation week and travelling two days with kids 1200 miles is interesting to say the least, but we survived. I brought my shakes and I managed to keep my nutrition on track. We arrived late Saturday night to our grandpa's home and Sunday morning we hit the grocery store to stock up on the necessities. I picked up my containers of cottage cheese, turkey, bread, yogurt, etc. Unfortunately, this trip was part true vacation, but we had some sad news less than a few weeks ago, and my wife's grandfather passed away. We helped organize and clean up the place and we had some time to reflect on the whole situation. It was strange without Grandpa, but the home didn't feel uneasy, it felt at peace... something I was worried about. We lost my wife's father last year around the same time, when he was visiting Grandpa, but her father never made it back home :( We miss you guys, love you guys, rest in peace, and keep us on the right track down here ;)
Normally our vacations to Florida consists of spending time with Grandpa and a get away for a few days to Clearwater Beach. We decided to continue on to the beach for a few days after we found a condo for the family. While the kids were enjoying their time on the beach, it was good that the hotel had a pool for after nap time swimming, and an evening dip in the pool was nice too. Staying on track wasn't so bad, as we had a fridge, but we only brought what we needed. We decided to stay an extra night and day on the beach and this became a slight challenge, as I didn't bring all of my supplements with me. I tried my best to stay on track, but in all honesty I would say that up until Thursday night, I was at 100%, but ended up off track the remaineder of the vacation. All my meals were good, but when I get to dinner I fell off the wagon. I told myself, that as soon as I get back, I would get back on track.
During the vacation I felt like working out, but just didn't want to take the risk, but what I did do was run outside. I did about 2 miles on 3 days during the vacation, and was surprised that I did so well considering that all my running except one day back in week 8 have been on the treadmill. One day, my son even convinced me to take him in the stroller, he kept me motivated... but can you believe he kept telling me to run faster? Made me chuckle... I averaged about 5.5mph and a little over 11min/ mi. I was proud of myself :)
