Time for some weekly accountability! I will recapping how I have done on the 4 Well Rules over the last week: Eat Well, Sleep Well, Exercise Well and Be Well. I have decided to link up with Tara of Running n Reading as I love linkups. Make sure to check out the other bloggers there too!


I had a fantastic week and this week will be hectic but I am ready for it. 


EAT WELL
I did pretty well in Denver and ate mostly gluten free (not the VooDoo doughnuts. the stomach ache was worth it). I have been trying to increase my veggie intake and it has gone pretty well. I drank more alcohol than I have in a while (celebrating after class on Weds, and then Fri and Sat night in Denver) but I had a great time and did not have a hangover.
One thing I want to work on is cutting down my coffee intake. I had a ton of coffee last week and I don't want to get to a point where I will get headaches if I do not have it. I don't need to carbload this week (that is for next week!) so i will be sticking to low carb and high fat. 


SLEEP WELL
I did well leading up to Denver and then crashed and burned in Denver. My goal is to get back to 8 hours of sleep if possible


EXERCISE WELL
Mon: rest day
Tues: 2 mile recovery run
Weds: weight training
Thurs: 3 mile recovery run
Fri: snow snoeing (2 miles but those boots and shoes were heavy)
Sat: hiking and dancing
Sun: travel day/rest day


Mon: core work and sleeping 
Tues: 3 miles
Weds: PiYo
Thurs:3 miles speed work (200m repeats)
Fri: PiYo 
Sat: 3 miles
Sun: 6 miles 


BE WELL
I spent a fab weekend in Denver with my college friends and I had so much fun. We went snow shoeing, hiking, caught up and ate lots of good food. I will write a post about it later this week.


This week is going to be hectic with work, final papers and just life. I am going to see Avengers on Thursday (and wearing my Avengers half shirt!) and then also going to celebrate the Kentucky Derby on Saturday.

Hi! I'm visiting from Running N Reading's weekend update! I can't believe the Kentucky Derby is already this weekend! I guess it makes sense though, since my wedding anniversary is next week. It was on during my wedding and people kept sneaking out to the bar tvs to watch it during our reception! :) It looks like you had a blast in Denver! Snow shoes are no joke! They are heavy!

I just love Denver - glad you had a fun time! Your comment about the donuts is great - I am gluten sensitive as well and there are absolutely times when the stomach ache is worth it. Especially for donuts!

I have never been snow shoeing - but I love snow skiing, so this would probably be equally awesome :) What a fun way to spend a weekend with your girlfriends!

I had never heard of snow shoeing before we did it! It's basically hiking but when th shoes on that can handle the snow
