Guess where I am right now. Hint: The Lonely Island has a song about it entitled “I’m on a Boat.” For work today, we are going fishing! Sometimes my job is just too much… We had the opportunity to go fishing with the group or take a day off, but I decided to go on…
Fitness Class Curiosity
My name is Katie, and it has been 6 days since my last workout. I’ve been waiting for a bad sun rash all over my chest and shoulders to go away, which it almost has, so I think it’s time I get back into the swing of things. Thinking about going back to my usual running…
My Pushup Challenge Recap
Good morning! Isn’t it just a beautiful day to … sleep through? We were out late last night partying it up at a wedding, so I’m a little less thrilled than normal about this Monday morning. It was all worth the fun we had last night though. It was an absolutely gorgeous wedding in downtown…
Hiking Adventures + Running on the Beach
This past weekend was chock-full of activities—aka it was awesome. As you can see from the title, we went hiking and ran on the beach! We haven’t gone hiking in ages, so it was nice to get out there and test my fear of heights… Seriously though, I’m usually good with heights, but the steep…
A Few of My Favorite Things
I just want you all to know that I’m drinking a $3.32 bottle of wine right now. No, I’m not consuming alcohol at 6am—I wrote this post last night. The sad part is…it’s not too shabby. I think I’ve gotten used to super cheap wine and don’t know the difference between good and bad wine…
Runner’s Jealousy
Today, I would like to discuss a disease I have developed over the course of the last five years: Runner’s Jealousy. I’m not talking about the running comparison trap, where I want to be super fast and run a million races like some crazy people out there. It’s more of a…you’re running; therefore, I should…
The 30/30 Pushup Challenge
Workouts Wednesday: Did the following elliptical workout, which had me exhausted by the end. Yesterday: Completed my 30 Minutes to Speed It Up treadmill run. Once again, I felt exhausted after, which I didn’t even realize until I finished and began walking back to the apartment. I looked like a robot. Today: I’m about 88.2% better from…
My First Time Paddleboarding
Guess what we did this weekend… We went paddleboarding! …as you already knew from the title of this post. I can proudly say I did NOT fall, and I stood up pretty much the whole time we were paddling! The picture below is the area where we went, but it’s really hard to tell. Faraway…
How NOT to Prepare for a Mud Run
Workout Yesterday: 30-minute walk/run (note to self: don’t run right after dinner) Today: I want to feel the burn. What does that mean? My Lean Legs Circuit, Feel the Burn Abs Circuit, and Toned Arms & Shoulders are on the books—aka workouts that never fail to make me sore. Happy Happy Friday, All! Seeing as…
A Few of My Favorite Things
Does anyone else uncontrollably yawn whenever they work out? It’s one thing to be tired, but I always catch myself yawning even though I’m breathing super hard. It’s a bit difficult…and probably a strange site. This happened to me last night while I was doing a tabata workout, so it was really hard to yawn…
Tips for Long-Term Race Training
Workout Yesterday: Dumbbell Circuit Today: 30 Minutes to Speed It Up – ya, so I do this pretty much every week. So?! HAPPY FRIDAY!!! Booyah. That’s what I have to say about that. It’s also Ride Your Bike to Work Day today. On my way to work this morning, I definitely saw more bikers than usual….
My Favorite Things
So I whipped up some treadmill magic last night, and it felt amazing. I think it’s safe to say this my new favorite running interval workout. By increasing the speed by .1 every minute, I got up to 7 at a certain point. Overall, it was challenging yet doable. Tonight, I’m planning to combine a…
New Addition to the Family
What is this addition you ask? I’ll give you some hints: It breathes air, was $5, looks red, and is the second letter of the Greek alphabet. Say hello to… Mr. No Name, the Beta fish. Aka we haven’t named it yet. Does anyone else have a major problem with naming pets? I’ve had fish…
What to Do if a Runner Passes Out from Heat Exhaustion
Workout Yesterday – 4 difficult, hot miles outside (Apparently if you rarely run, it starts to get a bit unpleasant.) Later Today – My Lean Legs Circuit, Alphabet Abs Circuit, & Toned Arms & Shoulders. (I feel like being intense.) Question for you all… [Source] Story of my life. But guess what… It’s Friday! Let’s…
