Happy Birthday Tali 🐱 + Happy Pelo-versary 🚴‍♀️


Celebrate the small joys and wins each day!

My soulmate cat, Cali crossed over the rainbow bridge (losing her battle with chronic kidney disease) on April 4, 2024. Exactly 10 days later a precious and playful brown tabby  cat entered the world. A unique orange marking on her foot brings out the Cali (a calico cat) in her! Tali and Cali share other similarities as well: a love of water running out of the faucet, laying on my chest, and joining me on the mat for Peloton classes, to name a few!

What else am I celebrating today?

💪🏻🧘‍♀️My 4 year Peloton Anniversary!🚴‍♀️🥾

On April 14, 2001 I started my free trial of Peloton Digital with my Schwinn IC4 Bike. After actively participating in cycling and strength classes with Aaptiv and Apple Fitness+ for the past year, I decided to give Peloton a try. When the Covid lockdown first hit in the Spring of 2020 and Peloton’s popularity surged, my initial reaction was that Peloton was ‘just a trend.’ Boy, was I wrong! One year later, in March 2022, I invested in a Bike+! Since then I’ve added the Guide, dumbbells, yoga blocks and strap, and a diverse selection of apparel. I hope to add the Peloton Tread and/or Row to my Peloton collection one day!

Through the struggles and ups and downs brought on by my tumultuous career exploration and a competitive job market the last few years, the Peloton classes and instructors and member community (a big shout out to the Peloton Singles Group and Power Zone Pack), Peloton has saved my life. ❤️

Join me for a Peloton class and let’s high-five on the leaderboard: LuthiR!

In times of stress and uncertainty, I often return to a favorite pastime: Color Therapy! It brings me calmness and stillness when I color in this cute cat-themed coloring book while listening to a 5 to 15-minute Peloton guided meditation.
