We've got quite a week lined up! First up is the Pre-Pumpkin Pie ride at the Rivers Club on Wednesday. Although it's only 45 minutes long, you can be sure I'll pull out all the stops to give you a killer workout before you're off for the holiday!
Second up, on Thanksgiving, is our first annual Turkey Day Beer Mile! I've been blogging quite a bit about this so won't take up any more room here, but check the last few weeks posts if you want more info.
Finally, I'm going to call a few of my LA Fitness friends and see if there is Spin Class scheduled for Black Friday. If there is, I might ask around for someone to let me tag along as their guest that morning. It would be great to catch up with the crew!
Tips for Holiday Eating
Tis the season! It's time for turkey, pumpkin pie, egg nog, bourbon, cranberry sauce, stuffing, bourbon, gravy, green bean casserole, bourbon, ham, cornbread, bourbon, pecan pie, and bourbon! How can you enjoy all the flavors of the season and still stay healthy? Check out this blog post by Katherine Dryer, or ChiLiving, for some great tips.

Weekly Schedule, the Beer Mile and More!
Sadly, I'm down to only one day per week teaching spinning class. I'm still working out on the bike though, so I'll be in plenty of shape for the Race to Any Place. Just a reminder, we still have a few spots open for the team, so if you haven't signed up on our unofficial roster yet, please make sure you do!
Also, the Turkey Trot Beer mile is definitely on! Here are the categories that we'll be racing. If you're interested in participating, shoot me an email and let me know. Also, please make sure someone comes out with you so that they can drive you home!

That's all for now, look back soon for some great articles on what to look for in a personal trainer, how to train for the Pittsburgh marathon, and the benefits of Heart Rate Zone training!

My Final 2 Fridays...
LA Fitness Friends,
Last week I had to make one of the toughest, easy decisions of my life...to give up my spin classes at LA Fitness.
I say that it was tough I absolutely love coming in each morning and working with you. Over the past five years some of the faces in class have changed, but I consider all of you good friends and hope that you'll continue your fitness journey and stay in touch as often as possible. Don't ever hesitate to reach out with a fitness related questions, or personal training.
While the decision was tough because I will miss all of you, it was easy in the sense that I'll be able to spend the mornings with Jax, getting him ready to start his day. The amount of enjoyment I get hoping on a bike and going like crazy for 45 minutes is immeasurable, but can't even compare to waking up each morning and having coffee/milk with my little guy while watching cartoons.

The Beer Mile
Have you ever heard of a beer mile? The first time I heard about it was when I watched this record setting video a few months ago and immediately thought, "I have to do that!" However, if you read my blog post on balance a few weeks ago, you'll know that I'm not good at staying focused on one thing for too long, so I forgot about it...until today!
