Because Being Ordinary Is Boring: Snow Mountain Rancy

Week in Review (September 8 - September 14)

Tuesday (13,883 steps) - Peloton ride and Olive walk before going to work in office. Went to the gym at lunch and did some strength training and treadmill walking.

Ben had dinner ready when I got home, which was nice. Took Olive for a walk before settling down for the evening.

Wednesday (19,336 steps) - Walk with Olive and Ben before going to work. I had a workout to do at lunch, but it was an easier one. Not bad at all!

Took Olive for another walk when I got home. Ben got held up in a meeting so he had food delivered. Yum!!

Lioness? Cannot remember what we ended up watching.

Thursday (18,357 steps) - Took Olive for a walk to the lake.

I only had a short run to do, so I got it done early.

Took Olive to her grooming appointment. They were a lot quicker this time around, but we were sad that she didn't get hair bows this time. Also, her ears seem to be a little uneven - still adorable. Hoping it helps with all her itching recently.

Over lunch she wanted to go on another long walk, so back to the lake we went. After work we went to Torchy's for dinner. Maybe this was the night that we started Yellowjackets. I have already seen all the episodes that are currently out, but since we are out of things to watch I suggested we watch this so I don't have to find time to watch when the last season comes out in November.

Friday (15,659 steps) - Ben joined me and Olive for a walk to the lake before work. It was a really nice morning!

Took her for a walk at lunch - definitely warm.

Took Olive for a walk. Ben ordered Dominos for dinner. Yellowjackets?

Saturday (47,181 steps) - Snow Mountain Ranch 33k (recap to follow).

We stopped in Winter Park at Wake N' Bacon for brunch on our way home. Food was pretty good and Olive was allowed on the patio. There was a little bit of rain and we both were wearing long sleeves, but seemingly fall is on the way!

Took a shower and then walked Olive around the block. Leftover pizza for dinner. We were hoping to watch the new Fall 2, but it's not out yet. We settled on Alien: Romulus. Kinda cheesy, but I've seen worse.

Sunday (15,015 steps) - Did some things around the house before going to Boulder for our normal Sunday hike.

Stopped at Runners Roost to 1). try to exchange my socks (which they wouldn't do because I didn't have a receipt) and 2). to try on the new Mount to Coast M1s. I would have bought but they apparently don't do a team discount on them, so I will wait and decide. We went to Resolute on the way home. I got a Ziggi's shaken pumpkin espression and Ben got us some Filipino food. Was pretty tasty.

Took Olive for a walk. Lioness new episode and then part of a Yellowjackets.

Monday (17,139 steps) - Walked Olive to the lake.

Went for my run relatively early since there was a chance of rain in the forecast. Spoiler, we got no rain. Run was good!

Blah day, but at least I was at home! Took Olive for a walk at lunch. We went to Costco when I got off work so I could get my glasses fixed. I really need to get a new prescription soon. Made dinner and then Yellowjackets. Glad I am re-watching this, there is a lot of new things I am noticing and things I had forgotten.
