Week in Review (July 8 - July 14)

Tuesday (12,783 steps) - Peloton ride and walked Olive before going to work in the office. Gym at lunch - StairMaster and weights. 
After work I took Olive for another walk. Did we finish Squid Games? Unknown.
Wednesday (22,490 steps) - With the forecast being triple digits, I had to get up and do my run before work, which I *hate* doing. I had 4 miles at half marathon goal pace with a warmup and cool down. I set a range I wanted to hit and did pretty well. I took a couple walk breaks, but in general I was pleased with how this went. 
Took Olive to work and headed in to work. Headed home to meet up with Ben & Ariel for our movie night at the Alamo! Ariel got us all tickets for the new Jurassic Park. It was a great way to spent the evening since it was SO HOT. The movie was ok, predictable. Had a burger for dinner. We all took Olive for a short walk when we got home.
Thursday (15,181 steps) - Work from home. Late morning I met up with Larry and Terri in Boulder for a hike/run. Thankfully we had some cloud cover and a little bit of rain.


We headed into Louisville to Lulu's for a snack and a Texas Slush.
Home to finish work. Torchy's for dinner. Criminal Minds season finale.
Friday (12,544 steps) - Wash Park and Stella's with the gang.
Boring work day for all of us.
We met Ben at 4 Noses for happy hour - sticking to just one beer! Got Panda for dinner, which was delicious and fun.
Maybe this was the night we watched "Heads of State" - which we liked.
Saturday (37,538 steps) - Up early to walk Olive and drive up to Leadville for Silver Rush 15 miler.
Fun surprise to have Ana come to the finish line! Her and her husband came to Colorado a few weeks early for Summit 200. We sat around and chatted for a bit until they had to head out for their own adventures. Waited for Josephine and Jandy to finish and picked up some gear from the rabbit tent before heading out. Of course we made a stop at Outer Range. 
We were both hungry so we also got food. Picked up Olive on the way to the 4 Noses mug club party. They had lots of food for us, but we weren't hungry. Started a new series - Ballard.
Sunday (10,455 steps) - Didn't have a run planned, thankfully. In trying to think of something for us to do with Olive that involved her being able to get her feet wet, we went to Golden. It was chaos walking around by the river. Olive did get her paws wet, but she is still fearful of deeper water. I should teach her how to swim this summer.
Stopped at Golden City Brewing, but Olive didn't like the pebbles in the patio area.
Parry's on the way home for a snack. We were all SO HOT and spent the rest of the day inside watching Ballard episodes. 
Monday (16,831 steps) - Woke up very tired and forced myself out the door for my easy run before it got too hot and miserable. Spoiler, was still hot and miserable. Ariel showed up and we got coffee and picked up a breakfast taco. I took Olive for a walk, seemingly beating a storm I didn't even know was coming.
Then, since it was national mac & cheese day, we picked up food from Noodles. After getting off work I did a delivery and then met Ben at Costco to pick up groceries. Pizza for dinner and Ballard.

Stats:
  • 127,822 steps
  • 30.08 miles run
