20:00 Row, 20:00 Bike

Since Friday was such a g-d disaster, Boyfriend and I made it a point to go to the gym on Saturday. It was part of our Old-School-esque 'lovey little Saturday'. We went to the gym, and the farmers market, and PetSmart and the epic beer/wine store, AND we saw a movie. It was a very busy, yet fairly unhurried day. Very rare. And we accomplished everything on our to-do list!

I decided to do an intense cardio routine. A pair of extended Women's Health inspired HITT routines, one on the rower and one on the bike.

Felt really good to get a good workout in after the disaster that was Friday. I was super energized and maybe did a little to remedy the indulgent week I had. 7 more days till the beach!
