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…
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…
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…
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…
Snails & Dinos & Gift Cards! Oh My!
Ello, my friends! Can you believe April is one week away and Easter is this coming Sunday? I just realized all of this last night. Hopefully this means spring is around the corner. And by spring, I mean real spring—not snowy spring, which I know a lot of you are experiencing right now in the…
An Elliptical Workout That Doesn’t Suck
Do you ever workout twice in a day? I rarely do, but when I do it’s usually awesome. Probably has something to do with the fact that if I’m working out again, it’s because I really want to. Gotta love workouts when you’re actually motivated! On Friday early evening, Matt went to boxing class which…
The Importance of Fitness When Dealing with Cancer
Don’t you just love when you go for a run and get back right before the weather gets all cray cray? That just happened to me. It’s super windy and rainy now. It was partly cloudy with a breeze earlier. Win! Workout Yesterday: I did my Toned Arms & Shoulders workout plus this following abs…
Balancing a Running and Weight Lifting Schedule
I was planning to run 6 miles today but ended up only doing 4 (at an 8:30 pace…woo!) because it’s in the friggin 80s today. I was hot and cranky. Afterwards, I completed the following circuit 3 times through, focusing on working my arms and shoulders. Not going to lie – before I made this workout,…
My Favorite Things
San Diego is hot hot hot today. I just got back from a run, and OH BABY 70 degrees has never felt so hot. At the moment, I’m enjoying a Berry Spinach Smoothie, and it’s really hitting the spot. It may look brown there, but it’s actually a pretty purplish red color. You see, I have…
My Favorite Things
OH HEY! I’m all hopped up on endorphins because I had an awesome workout. I started off with the following treadmill run: I can’t even remember the last time I ran on the treadmill, so I somewhat enjoyed it. Our apartment complex got new machines in the workout room, which stalled my run for…
Berry Spinach Smoothie
I’ve been in creation mode all morning. When trying to figure out what to do for a workout this morning, I knew I wanted to focus on doing bodyweight exercises. After browsing through my Pinterest workout board and not finding anything that struck my fancy, I decided to just make my own. I’m taking the…
10 Things I Want to Do Before I Die
Some people have serious bucket lists that they actively try to complete, but I’m not really that type of person. I more so live my life, realize things I really want to do, and then soon after just replace those things with new things. The idea of having a legitimate list of things you want…
How to Break in New Running Shoes
Before I get into how to break in new shoes, here’s a quick recap of my latest workouts. Today, I ran 4 miles at 34:35:39 (pace of 8:38) with random speed work thrown in. Feels good to sprint sometimes! Yesterday, I did my Feel the Burn Ab Circuit and the following walking routine on the treadmill:…
