Double Monday: Weights & 3 Hot Miles

Double Monday  Today we decided to try moving our interval run to after work. Now, with the heat we're having (100+ degrees), not sure if it was smart or not to be honest.

I checked the weather after the run and it was 15 mph winds with 23 mph gusts. After work I also did Shock Cardio HiiT 40/20 to make up for not doing plyo legs yesterday per my new rotation. I also added in abs from Cathe's Low Impact Circuit . Too Nice to Cook Inside When the weather is nice at the onset of spring, it's so hard to not want to spend...
