Mark Your Calendars!!!

As we get to the close of summer vacation and the start of a new fall routine, it’s time to update your goals and your calendars for all the upcoming cardiogirl events and challenges!

Congratulations to all the cardiochaos girls who have completed the first half of chaos, and are sprinting into the second half this week!  With this session almost complete, it’s about time for another demo class for those of you who still haven’t had an opportunity to see what cardiochaos is all about!  Try the newest and most chaotic offering from cardiogirl on Saturday, August 27, at 3pm.  Please RSVP for a spot in the demo class, as it will fill up!

Following your chaos session, join us Sunday, August 28 for the cardiogirl Summer Sizzle 5K at Lee’s Wine Bistro.  We will be running a 5K route on the surface streets, then meeting back at the bistro for a champagne toast to celebrate all your summer success!

The following weekend is Labor Day, where a couple of cardiogirls will be running the Disneyland Half Marathon and 5K.  Then join us on September 11 as we take part in the Annual SEB Mud Run to benefit Lupus International.  This mud run is 5+ miles long at takes place at the Pitchess Detention Center in Castaic, Ca.  It’s your last chance of the summer to get out and get dirty!  Check out some cardiogirls who fought through the mud in last year’s race.

Let’s HANDLE IT!  Cheers to a great end of summer!

New Month, New Goals

Can you believe August is already here? The summer is flying by, and the ladies participating in the Summer Challenge are hard at work.
School starts this month, and it’s back into routine for many of us. This is a great time to assess your fitness and nutrition (or maybe life in general) and make some new goals! Studies say shorter-term goals can be hugely instrumental in reaching a larger one. Testing this theory, I am training to try and beat my half-marathon PR at the Disneyland Half Marathon next month, then again in November in Santa Clarita, all in preparation for the Surf City marathon in February. Yikes!
Nutrition: If you’ve fallen off your healthy eating habits this summer, you’re not alone. Extra daylight and warm weather bring about easy get-togethers that are so often centered around food. Summer barbeques, beach picnics, and warm-weather vacations make it easy to slip up more often than during the year. Make small tweaks now and reach healthy eating goals before the cooler weather arrives.
Exercise: If you have been doing the Summer Challenge, you are already getting some terrific workouts in. But if you’ve let your workouts slide, now is the time to get back on track! Check the cardiogirl calendar to see which classes you can fit in, or schedule training sessions with us – we love to train!
