This week was actually really good considering that I missed M-T for being sick. The rest of the week went well and it was especially fun this weekend. We were given the opportunity to stay in a fitness suite at Hotel 71 in Chicago and it was awesome. I’ll be writing more about it this week but I will say it was one of the best times together we have had in a LONG time.
Chicago is a great city to get active. We live out in the burbs so we don’t get there often but I sure hope to be able to get back soon. It’s really a beautiful city. The Chicago half marathon was this weekend which we missed checking out but hope all those that ran had a great time.
We’ll be doing more traveling this month and next so I’ll be sharing some tips on how to stay active while on the road for personal or business travel. Here are my workouts for the week:

Chicago is a pretty awesome city. I always love visiting and biking or walking around the lake. So pretty!

I have been here over 10 years (in the burbs) and never really spent much time in Chicago. It really took my breath away and I would love to get down there more that is for sure.
