Week 15

So this was the last week of Lauren's class :'( . I really enjoyed Lauren's workouts and will miss them a lot! Just not the guest instructors so much.

This week was a week of exams for me, so the bulk of my workouts were in the beginning portion of the week. On Monday I ran for half an hour on the track without walking at all ( yes-  goal achieved!!) and Tuesday, I did some amazing Yoga with Lauren. I felt really good after running and I want to continue doing that in the future. Hopefully I'll find a place to run this winter break. And the yoga felt good! I think I didn't have enough focus and didn't detach myself enough from my thoughts enough, because I was not as relaxed as I would have liked. I felt a lot more sore than I thought I would afterwards though!

Then I fell ill and then had a multitude of exams to study for :(

Here's the last motivational picture of the week!

Week 14

I cannot believe that the semester is almost over! I've definitely have grown in many ways, including being more fit. I ran for about 10 minutes and then rode the bike for 20 minutes on Monday. Tuesday, I went to Lauren's class and absolutely loved the workout! It was intense, but I persevered! We did circuits that were Lauren's greatest hits. My favorite would definitely have to be the squats on the bosu ball - they're so much fun! And then on Thursday, I did a biking and running biathlon. I ran for 15 minutes on the track, which turned out to be so much easier than running on the treadmill, and then 15 minutes of biking with the stationary bikes. On Friday, I ran for a full 30 minutes, maintaining a speed of around 5.0 mph without walking once! Whoot!

I definitely have gotten better at running. Now my new goal is to run the 7k in the Shamrock Shuffle!
