Good morning!
I haven't been on here in almost a week and I miss my little baby blog! I am going to keep this short and sweet because the sun is shining and we need to get out today and enjoy it.
Workouts
Friday - 3 miles
Saturday - 14 (awful) miles
Sunday - Rest
So I am really pumped up to start a new challenge tomorrow with Gina over at Fitnessista!
The challenge starts up tomorrow, June 3rd, so today I'll be gathering everything to make sure next week is a success. If you have been looking for something to get you motivated or out of a rut check out her blog!
Yesterday's long run was suppose to be ran with Katie but due to some personal issues Katie wasn't able to meet me for the run. It probably worked out for the best because the entire 14 miles was one long crap-fest (not literally). I kept waiting for the moment to finally hit when it started to feel okay and not a struggle with each step. That moment never came and I was never so glad to have a run be done. As soon as I came home I stretched and jumped in an ice bath because my body just hurt.
As the day went on I started realizing I was dehydrated and that was probably a large cause to my awful run. Today and from now on I have to start focusing on getting more water during the day. I try to drink water throughout the day but it isn't nearly as much as I should be getting.
Next week is a full week for our little family full of lots of good stuff. It will be a good lesson in time management and on Tuesday June 4th I'll be starting a 4 week series on just that, Time Management. I am by no mean an expert in the subject but I have picked up a few things that have worked for me. I'll be posting a new blog post on different areas of Time Management each Tuesday during the month of June and hopefully we can all learn something from each other's experiences. At the end of the month I'll be doing a GIVEAWAY of Laura Vanderkam's book 168 Hours: You Have More Time Than You Think.
OK the sun is shining and it is time to get this wagon train moving! Enjoy your Sunday and don't forget to check out Fitnessista's Summer Shape Up Challenge!
I leave you with our Saturday night crack up
I wasn't drinking enough water either, so a coworker and I started bringing a gallon of water each to work every day and trying to drink all of it. Having the gallon sitting there makes it easier for me than filling up glasses and not knowing how much I'm getting. Recently I saw one of my friends I hadn't seen in awhile and she commented on how good my skin looked. The only thing I had changed is drinking more water. This might sound weird, but I also feel like I'm in a better mood when I drink this much water.
