“A Week in My Life – Sunday” by Coach Michelle

A Week in My Life – Sunday, Feb. 5, 2023

For work, I coach one swim session.  I know I said I have “work-free” weekends…I guess this technically isn’t true.  However, this one swim session is one of my most enjoyable coaching sessions of the week!  It’s relaxed, loose, mellow & fun!  Is it technically “work”?  Yes.  But I love it!

For exercise, my Oura data was all back to normal, so I did a longer walk to a couple of stores.  To train for the Timberline Trail we’ve taken to walking as many places around town as possible.  At first it seemed so daunting to “walk to WinCo & grocery shop” or to “walk to dinner”.  But now these walks have become a regular part of our week.  I actually really enjoy them!  In fact…we’ve even walked to the airport to catch flights!!  Talk about a feeling of freedom!!
