Yesterday I ran the same route as last Sunday but in reverse, so it was a bit under 6 miles. It was so nice out, sun shining, people smiling, I’m glad I got out there. I love how the warmer weather makes people look you in the face and smile, everyone seems a little nicer. Even the guy who I thought looked like a friend of mine, so I waved and it wasn’t who I thought…But it could have been much more awkward had it been cold and the stranger had a snarl instead of a sunny smile. So 3 full weeks of training down already! I am kind of shocked that I have been making it to the gym regularly, I don’t want to jinx it so I will just take it a day at a time : )
Last week I did 3 miles the three times I went to the gym and this week I need to do 2- 3 mile runs and a 4 mile run. Thursdays are probably my favorite night to run. I am done school for that week, and I get to watch my favorite show (30 Rock) while on the treadmill. And not to mention the gym is practically empty. This week it was only the old man that brings his own boom box, so he can play his workout music. It was some type of 80s selection this week. Reminded me of some of the movies from the 80s like Short Circuit. I haven’t seen that in a while, think I need to Netflix that.
Chemistry is no joke. My lab this week was pretty intense so I know that I will need to be adjusting my schedule to make sure I have study/HW time in there as well. I am so happy that I started the new job, because I don’t have to come in to work until 8:30, which means I can stay up until 11 or 12 and make sure things get done. Last night, I was out past 10, watching the Super bowl, and I still managed to sleep a full 8 hrs. Yes I am in a good mood today :D I love my sleep! Oh and my friend John asked me to join his coed softball team, so I will be starting that in April. It’s Friday Nights so it shouldn’t interfere with much. That can be my ‘cross train’ day. I haven’t played in over 7 yrs so the first few games should be interesting. It is over 40 degrees today and the sun is out!!! But its gonna get cold again tomorrow and the rest of the week :/
