The gym is closed because they have some special event going on this weekend. I’ll maybe try and go for another run in the evening after the sun goes down and it isn’t blazing hot. But I haven’t really been in a happy mood because it’s been so boring and depressing down here by myself.

It’s 94 degrees out today
Had an AWESOME work-out today!
Cardio: I went in thinking that I was just gonna run 2 miles and call it a day (because I felt lazy) but as I got into it, I realized that I felt really good and could probably go for 3 miles. I reached 3 miles and still felt awesome so I ended up doing 5 miles on the treadmill in 51:00 minutes.
Ab work-out: I tried out this new free app on the iPod (called Nike Training) which has a bunch of work-outs and guides you through them. I did a 15 minute “focused” work-out for the abs. I’m sure people were getting concerned with the sounds I was making halfway through it :P They already hurt a little. Yay!
Now I’m eating leftovers from dinner that I made yesterday night, which is spaghetti with alfredo sauce, broccoli, and little bits of pork chop. Drinking a nice cold glass of vitamin D milk. Got my carbs, my veggies, and my protein!
I don’t even know if I still have active followers on this blog, and I don’t blame anyone because I’ve been terrible at keeping up with it. But hopefully with a lot more free time on my hands, I’m gonna try and do a better job. Join me!
Fat is not an insult and skinny is not a compliment
I wish more people adhered to that idea.
Anyway, I’ve been so busy the past couple of weeks that I could puke. Therefore, I haven’t been running or working out at all…so I’m going to start again today. I’ve got the entire summer to get fit again!
Start your engines, ladies and gentlemen, go!

Ran outside today for the first time in what feels like forever. I’m proud of myself because I managed to pace myself almost all the way through (~2.8 miles).

“There are 1440 mins in the day, can’t you spare 30 of them for exercise?”
I like to set aside at least an hour ;)
