New sweater on the left! I bet you it is Merino Wool as well as the Sweat-er Once A Day Jacket on the right. Also new Knitwear accessories.

I like the look of this jacket a lot. It is Merino Wool so I’m curious to see how soft or itchy it is. I’m definitely needing to sit this one out though.

Check out the pants the model in these three photos is wearing! They look like Pique run tights, especially in the middle photo where you see the top back zip pocket. There is a chance these may be older run tights (herringbone) but I don’t think they are as they look like Pique to me and I don’t believe there have been pique run tights in the past.

I had the worst week getting back into the groove of a new fall schedule after arriving from Las Vegas last weekend. When I left I still had my unstructured summer holiday schedule of waking up late and going to bed late and no school for the kids or strict routine so my workouts where pretty easy to fit in. We arrived Sunday night and Monday morning was back to school, soccer practice, family stuff that came up and adapting to not sleeping in/going to bed late so I’ve been skipping out on workouts a lot.
Las Vegas was a lot of fun and my very first vacation away from the kids so as you can imagine, I took full advantage of my time away. I had planned on visiting a crossfit box there and we even rented a car in order to do that but between all the other ‘stuff’ that we did, I didn’t make it to the gym. It was ok though because we were in a hotel that had about 6 miles of walking before you could find your room or the lobby (found the short cuts on the last day) and if you got detoured or disoriented (we did each time) you added an extra 4 miles to your trek. That, on top of walking the stripe. The slot machines provided good ‘rest areas’ though and $26 margaritas to hydrate with. My feet have never been so beat up and sore and blistered, not even after half marathons. Another thing we did was visit Hoover Damn which was great. That provided a good workout as well since we sprinted all the stairs we could find. I’m surprised I didn’t come back with big weight gain. I finally weighed myself today after last weekends food debauchery and I’m at the same weight as when I left. My stomach is quite bloated though so I definitely need to do some damage control.
Today’s crossfit workout:
12 minute EMON: lateral lunges 4 reps (35lb KB), odd minute: 5 HSPU (progression was dumbell push press).
The WOD (I did it in 17:19 and RX’d at 65lbs)
400 M Run
40 Dead Lifts
40 DU’s
30 Back Squat
30 Toes To Bars
20 Power Cleans
20 Push Ups
10 Thrusters
10 Burpee Box Jump
Wore my new Bumble Berry Cool Racerback, Inkwell Sashiko Energy Bra and Roll Down Wunder Under Crops. Wore my Awesoma Henley as well. It was cold on my way there but then the temp rose up to 24*c and I was sweltering with the warmup (a run, and tabata).
A wonderful blog reader has submitted for us a few pictures and a review of the Rocky Road Gusto Blue Roll Down Wunder Under Pants. Huge thanks to Ms. C for sharing with the community her observations on these pants.
I just tried on the rocky road gusto blue bumble berry full on luxtreme roll down wunder unders. The store had not put them out yet but I was inquiring about inkwell/black pique roll downs and the lovely educator checked the boxes in the back and returned with these. I’m a bit too old for this print but I figured there’s no harm in trying them on. My normal size 4 in the first two pictures felt like I was stuffing myself into a sausage skin and the foot holes were so tiny! I’m only a size 6 shoe so it was not due to large feet, a woman with a size 10 wouldn’t be able to get her foot into these. The full on luxtreme is thin and cheap feeling, not at all like the luxtreme of the what the sport short. I also tried on a size 6 and there was less of a stuffed sausage feeling but it was still there, the foot holes were just as small and the material just as thin and cheap feeling. The educator was in love with them until I pointed out the small foot openings and thin fabric and then even she didn’t like them anymore. I’m very disappointed in this “full on” luxtreme and the sliding quality of products lately
