Day Twenty-Two: Family Hike!

This morning was supposed to be a gym morning, but there was perhaps more exhaustion in the house than could be easily overcome. This time, it wasn't me, but I respect it, plus I feel like I may be fighting off a cold, so a little extra sleep didn't go amiss.

To make up for that little lapse, we went on a longer family hike than usual. We went to the park at Lake Johnson in Raleigh, and we actually made it all 3.62 miles around the lake. Granted, Finn was DONE at about 2.5 miles, and Jason had to carry him on his shoulders for the last mile--the one with all the hills. Kieran made it the whole way on his own with almost no complaining--he was a total boss! It was gorgeous out--so glad we went!

In other exercise news, I failed my plank tonight for the first time due to wrist failure. I finished on my elbows, but it didn't feel right. Carpal tunnel is a rip off.
