Well, this one was a last-minute decision! 😂
I noticed around 7:10 this morning that there was an 8:00 AM Jazzercise class today, so apparently I decided I could squeeze one in. That meant throwing clothes on, grabbing my stuff, and basically running out the door with my tail on fire. 🔥🤣
I rolled in about five minutes late, but I had already started my workout tracker before I even left the car, so I still captured the whole workout. I checked in, jumped into the group, and got right to work!
And Sarah was a blast. She’s quirky, fun, wonderfully all over the place, and has this incredibly bouncy, jumpy energy that makes it pretty much impossible not to keep moving. We did a LOT of mambo and shuffle ball change. And while I can appreciate a good shuffle ball change, it’s a little too close to home for me because of that stupid talent show in first grade. 😂😂😂
But it was FUN.
This was definitely full cardio—not low impact. We were going, going, going, and I could definitely tell there was a workout happening!

My readiness was 86, so apparently my body was perfectly willing to entertain my spontaneous Sunday-morning decision. 😁
I was also testing out my new HIKE shoes today, along with my ankle-support braces. My left heel has started talking to me a little bit, and since I’ve dealt with plantar fasciitis before, I’m trying the preventative approach rather than waiting for it to become a bigger issue.
So far, so good. I’m not ready to give the shoes a five-star review after one class, but they survived Sara’s bouncy cardio assault, and my foot seems reasonably happy with the experiment. 😂👟
And then there’s the small logistical matter of why I had to bail before the strength portion…
Both moms are invading today! 😂
They’re coming over to get some more Daily-and-Loretta time before they leave Tuesday morning, which means I need to get home and make two quiches and heat up the chicken-portobello-rice casserole situation. So strength training had to lose the scheduling battle today.
Sorry, strength. You were sacrificed to the Mom Invasion. 🤷♀️😂
And, of course, I already got my coffee on the way home. ☕❤️
So that’s Jazzercise #40 in the books—and I love that it wasn’t even planned. I saw an opportunity, threw on my workout clothes, and went dancing.
40 Jazzercise sessions. 💃🔥
Not bad for a decision made at 7:10 AM while running five minutes behind. 😂
Still counts. Always!💜
