I eventually did get out of bed this morning. 🙂 And out the door we went!
It was a total winter wonderland!
We walked to the Downtown Mall to run some errands and see if the town was still operating. Along the way we got a little extra cardio in by giving a stuck car a push up the hill! I was very grateful that I didn’t have to be anywhere today.

The Mall was quieter than usual but most businesses were open.
We then decided to walk to Matt and Kath‘s a couple miles away. A few blocks before we reached their house we ran walked into them, all suited up and headed downtown for lunch. So we went back downtown!

We ate at Eppie’s, a pay-at-the-counter lunch spot that I have been wanting to try since we moved here. After being obsessed with soup for weeks I actually was craving a salad on this snowy day.

Check out the Collard greens and mac n’ cheese in the background, they came with Tate’s lunch but lucky for me, he’s a good sharer. Yum!
After 6.5 miles of urban hiking and lunching we headed home for some R&R and work. Just before dusk we wanted a little more snow action and went back out for Downtown Mall walk Round 3. Whew! We covered over 9 miles todays! It was good for my spirits to spend so much time outside, even if it was (below) freezing and sometimes slippery.
Since I committed to yoga this morning I did this 20 minute routine. I was only lukewarm about the sequence and instruction but it was just the right thing to stretch out my walking muscles.
How did your workout go today? Running? Tae Bo? I want to hear all about it!
I’m off to eat some soup. 😉
