Schedule tumbles, Wednesdays, and Running

Your guide to everything under the moon, the Amber Moon, 9/22/24

It’s been a while since my schedule tumbled into something new. Yes, cross country & track have changed it, but not a full tumble. Last week, it tumbled into newness. One client dropped, a class shifted, and I’ve suddenly got a more open Wednesday – with time to get some cardio in AND get to the Austin Studio earlier.

My viniyoga has been Wednesdays at 1030/1045a for probably a decade, even through COVID, though it became virtual. It was time to try something new.

Yes, I added time on Wednesdays in Austin for you, the client.

Yes, I’ve still got limited Monday openings in Taylor thru Oct 14 (remember to ask, please).

So, the new schedule is, through Oct 19 (effective now):
  • Monday – Taylor – variable – reach out & ask. Typ early afternoon.
  • Tuesday – Taylor
    • 1045a – Pilates Mat class
    • 12-230p – 30-60 min sessions
    • Cross country & Taylor Track Time coaching until 730p
  • Wednesday
    • Taylor: 7-830a
    • Austin: 12-515p
  • Thursday – Taylor
    • 11a – Viniyoga online
    • 1215-230p – 30-60 min sessions
    • Cross country & Taylor Track Time coaching until 730p
  • Friday

It’s gonna take me a bit to get the Wednesday change in my scheduler, so please ask if you are looking. I’ve got a lot of other computer work that takes priority at the moment.

Running

I’m remembering that my legs like to have an easy day before a run day. This past Saturday I worked the Big Wig Massage for Texas Mamma Jamma Ride, so I thought I’d get in a sprint interval session on my rower before hand – 30 min of good stuff. I worked hard. Today was slated as a run.

Ten minutes in to the run section my legs said “walking now“. I know during the week I make sure I walk on Tuesday so I can run on Wednesday… guess I’m going to have to remember all the tricks I used for scheduling back when I was doing triathlons. This was part of the impetus of the schedule shift – I wanted to be able to get my 2 days of running in per week. At this point, that’s what my legs say are doable. I’m listening.

On the good side, I’m easily managing a 90 min walk. Right before & during my bionic knees years, my nutrition was such that I couldn’t do it easily. At least that seems to be better managed now.

Now to add see how to keep 1-2 days of biking in, some rowing, and then swimming, once I’m out of PT for my shoulder. Remember that fall on my bike in early July? Yeah, it needed a little help. It is slowly getting there. Slow is good.

Blueberry reads

Yes, I’m still listening to audio books, and I think I’ve finished 2 since I last included this segment. Still on the book club theme with Strong Towns and Happy City. I need to go see what else I’ve still got in my library, as I’m ready for something on a different topic.

Looking back at all the books I’ve listened to this year so far, I’m quite impressed actually. ELEVEN books I’ve finished. ELEVEN. I honestly didn’t think I’d like audiobooks, but I’m glad I was wrong. I just had to figure out when to listen.
