Sunday was a much more focused on-plan day than my Friday and Saturday - we ate clean, TONS of veggies, and went on a long snowshoe hike in the freshly fallen snow! I don't have a ton of experience breaking trail while snowshoeing, and WOW, intense workout. My thighs, butt, and sides were burning by the end. Even my arms hurt from keeping balance :D
Seriously - I really recommend snowshoeing. Anyone can do it, regardless of athletic ability or stage of fitness. And you will build up muscles you didn't even know you had, hahaha.
It was a great day. It made me as happy as having everyone over to my house for a dinner party!
Actually, it was an overall amazing weekend that put me firmly in the holiday spirit.
Pictures from the hike:

| Feeling fit :D |

| The wind would blow all the snow off the trees and cause mini blizzards! |

| Snow was DEEEEEEEEP - came up to Koda's chest, and he's not a small dog! Tough trail! |

It's important to have more days like Sunday (activity and clean eating that makes me feel energized body and spirit!) than days like Friday/Saturday where I indulged a bit. And I do, so I feel at peace right now :)
Namaste!
Looks like fun if it didn't look SO cold! LOL
ReplyDeleteGlad you had such a great time!
ReplyDeleteI soooo want to try out snow shoeing but we rarely get enough snow in our mountains here for it... I need to add that to my list for 2014!!! Glad you guys had a fun day in the white stuff!
