Completed a Warrior Dash this weekend! It was a blast! There were a lottt of people, so it was more of a ‘figure out a way to get around the mob’ than a dash, but it was still a great time. It just goes to show that everyone can participate in races, and have a ton of fun with it. There are the super intense athletes that take themselves very seriously (which is fine!) but I think it can be intimidating to people that are just starting on their journeys. What a better way to loosen everyone up than throwing in a mud pit, and a dozen other obstacles. It definitely wasn’t a tough work out, but it was a great time and fun to see all different kinds of people getting down in the mud :)
I had a long talk with myself yesterday on the treadmill about this very thing (in my head, of course). I wanted to stop, but then I realized I didn’t really know why. I was not overly uncomfortable or in pain, and I had the time to do it so I just kept going. It’s always a good feeling to know that you can overcome mental distractions.
my life—well used to be, I need to get back into a yoga routine, it’s just expensive to go to a studio!

I need to re-configure my sleep schedule so I’m back in this routine. I still run, but not before the sun

School has started for the semester, and I’m on track to having an active healthy school year! I’ve already worked out everyday, and have been eating salads and fruit. I’m excited for my last year of undergrad, and to continue getting more and more in shape. I may look into yoga again, although it is expensive. I’ve missed it this year, and I can’t wait to get back into it!!
