It has been a glorious October! Seriously -- I've been doing my outdoor workouts in shorts and a t-shirt and loving every minute of it. I've also been loving the bootcamp style workouts for strength training, rather than going to a gym. I've been going to a local park a few times a week, running around the perimeter and using the play equipment and benches for equipment.
I've gotten a few strange looks, too, which always makes my day!
PLAYGROUND BOOTCAMP

Jog for 10 minutes followed by dynamic stretching

5) Push ups
6) Speed Skaters
