I’m finally putting this together on Sunday night, and to be honest the last thing I want to do is look at my computer screen. So this will be a quick one. Basically, I have spent the past week up to my eyeballs in website development. I am finally working on updating my site, but I am also working on similar project for work, so it feels like it is nonstop. I got a lot done this weekend but I feel like I haven’t rested at all. I am really excited to launch my new site but I want it to be as close to perfect as possible before I do so. Once it’s up and running I hope to focus on the content and catching up on everyone else’s blog. So please forgive me if I am not commenting as much lately! I will definitely be reading posts and trying to comment as much as my tired hands will allow.
A quick recap of the week in workouts:
Monday: 3 miles easy plus core/hips
Tuesday: Strength training and trying out the new bike!
Wednesday: 3 miles and PT exercises
Thursday: AM: 20 minutes biking PM: Physical Therapy appointment
Friday: Pilates workout (I got a magic circle so used that for the first time) and arm workout
Saturday: 50 minute spin class on YouTube and physical therapy exercises
Sunday: 7 mile run and core/hips
It was really windy on Saturday and I just wasn’t in the mood to go out for a run. So I found a workout on YouTube and hopped on the spin bike instead. I got in a great workout and was happy to run on Sunday when the weather was perfect!
Please follow me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and/or Bloglovin for updates about the new site. This one will be around for a while so I’m sure you will be able to find me even if you miss the announcement. (I’m not trying to be all secretive, I’m just really not sure about the timeline for all this). Thanks for putting up with my absence lately!
How were your workouts last week?
Thanks to Holly and Tricia for hosting the Weekly Wrap!

i totally understand how draining this process is, especially when you are doing something similar at work! my life gets that way often with the work I do, the blog and then the event planning topics I write while planning my own event! it’s a lot to handle. I am excited to see the new site!
Kristina says
I know how exhausting it can be to work on a new site, especially when it’s on top of all of your normal responsibilities. Looking forward to checking it out once it’s ready!!!
Laura @ This Runner's Recipes says
Working on a new site is exhausting! I am excited to see how it looks! Your workouts are so well rounded this week – the at-home bike sounds like it’s working out well!
Megan @ Meg Go Run says
I didn’t want to run Saturday either due to the wind! But I ended up going out and it wasn’t too bad. Do you work on websites for your job? I don’t know how to do any of that stuff!
Lisa @ Running Out Of Wine says
I don’t usually do website stuff for my job but we are trying to market the project we are doing so I made a really basic one. It was alot easier than creating a blog!
Lesley says
A lot of times I write posts during down time at work because I don’t want to be on my computer at home. I think web development can be fun, but I don’t do it at work so it would be something different to do. Can’t wait to see what you’ve decided to do.
Lisa @ Running Out Of Wine says
I find it kind of of fun too but it can be so time consuming, and after awhile it just gets to me!
Sarah @ BucketListTummy says
That’s so convenient having the bike that you can hop on it for a workout! I don’t blame you – looking at websites all weekend would have me wanting to be as far from them as possible.
Michele @ paleorunningmomma says
Can’t wait to see the new site! I totally get how draining that stuff can be though and to go through it at work too – ugh.
Ana says
Oh!! a new site sounds really exciting!! How cool!!
Good and active week for you!! Great job! Can’t wait to see the new site!
Lacey@fairytalesandfitness says
I would love to see your home gym. I bet now that you have that spin bike it is pretty cool. You always seem to be doing different workouts in there, between the TRX and now you have that Pilates circle. Must not ever get bored.
Lisa @ Running Out Of Wine says
Maybe I will share a “tour” of my home gym one day! Its really just a corner or my basement, but its working on well!
Laura @ Mommy Run Fast says
I love having a bike at home for easy spin classes! Especially as the weather gets colder. Hope all the website design goes smoothly!
Janelle @ Run With No Regrets says
Nice job with your workouts, it looks like things are going great! I look forward to seeing the new site!
Suzy says
So exciting about the bike! It looks great! YAYYYY! Nice job fitting it all in during a busy week.
Karen says
That bike will be awesome 🙂 You are putting in the hard work strengthening everything! That is nice your runs are getting longer again.
I ran my 20 miler in the wind lol it was an adventure!
Tricia@MissSippipiddlin says
I think it’s great you can work on your new site. I am not very computer savvy when it come to that kind of thing.
So are your keeping the same name you think or looking for something new?
Lisa @ Running Out Of Wine says
I am planning to change my name! Which I think makes this easier and a more difficult at the same time. Right now I am able to keep everything functioning separately, but merging it all may be a challenge!
Sam @ Grapefruit & Granola says
Can’t wait to see your new site!
HoHo Runs says
After staring at a computer all day at work, I admit it is sometimes not the most appealing thing to me once I get home. So, I usually impose one or two computer free evenings every week. How exciting to be developing a new site! I can’t wait until your unveiling. It looks like you had a great week of workouts too! Thanks for linking, Lisa!
Kristy from Southern In Law says
I can’t wait to see your new site! I’m sure it will be worth all the effort! 🙂
