Break time

What a week it's been! Last week was finals week at school, and although I didn't have any finals I was very busy with final projects and group presentations. Luckily, the weather was very cooperative and I had some great runs. Unfortunately, my watch wasn't cooperating much, but here is a look at what workouts I did!

Monday: 3 mile run on the treadmill with 30 minutes of strength training.

Tuesday: 4 mile run around campus. I hit 200 miles on my watch, which means it took me 8 days less than the first 100! I can't wait to keep increasing my miles and see them add up!

Wednesday: 50 minute power sculpt

Thursday: 4 mile run around campus. It was sprinkling when I began, which turned into a downpour by the time I finished. I forgot how much I loves running in the rain!

Friday: trip home! Christmas vacation starts!

Saturday: off day

Sunday: 6 mile run at North Park

I'm so excited to start my marathon training plan, which I found with help of one of my running idols: my friend John! He's run in so many marathons, most recently New York! He is amazing and I hope to follow in his footsteps one day.

Merry Christmas to everyone and keep running!

Pittsburgh Marathon: 137 days!

Relationship Rules I Broke (and WEDDING PHOTOS!)

Image
Happy Thursday everyone! Today I have a different type of post to share today.  I don't talk about relationships or my dating life much on the blog, but I'm switching it up today!  I got married last Friday, and I thought it would be fun to share some relationship rules that I broke while Dan and I dated. I'll also be sharing some wedding pictures!  We got married at the Butterfly Falls at the Hidden Valley Inn in Belize (more on the Inn in upcoming posts!), and the pictures turned out absolutely amazing.  Since we had a "just the two of us" ceremony, there's not much to talk about the actual wedding.  In lieu of a full post on that, I'll be sharing some background information on our relationship, along with wedding photos and some #ThrowbackThursday pictures.  I hope you enjoy (and I promise- back to running stuff next week!) Guys are immature, so date someone older I've always read in magazines (which, by the way, have the worst datin...

What's New With You? Linkup #2

Image
Hi everyone!  Thanks for stopping by today for the second "What's New With You" Linkup!  Kristen and I were so happy with the response from our first one, so I can't wait to read all of your posts again today! Let's get into it and talk about what's new in my world! House Hunting Yes..again.  I hope that one month I'll be able to take this off my list!  I've talked a lot about the ups and downs of house hunting, and I finally have some positive updates to share.  First, some story time. I talked last month about getting into a bidding war for house #1 and losing.  Right after that, a great house popped up on the market in my ideal neighborhood for a steal.  I knew it would go quickly, so I scheduled a visit with my realtor that night and had my parents come along.  We pulled up, and- no lie- there were ten other people there .  Crazy!  We then learned that there were offers pouring in for this house and we had 24 hours to p...

Review- Group Power

Image
Happy Weekend everyone!  Today, I'll be doing a review of another group exercise I do at my gym called Group Power !  Let's get right into it. First off, the description in our program guide is "This 60-minute barbell program strengthens all your major muscles in an inspiring, motivating group environment with simple, athletic movements such as squats, lunges, presses and curls." I don't exactly look like this when I'm curling..but you get the idea! Let me tell you, this is one intense workout!  For the entire 60 minutes, we're constantly moving and lifting and by the end I'm a pool of sweat!  We work out all the major muscle groups - Legs, Chest, Triceps, Biceps, Glutes, Shoulders, and Core with light to moderate weights.  We also use a step to do exercises like chest presses and split squats. For each song, we focus on one muscle group, and do a variety of exercises with lots of repetitions, set to the beat of the music.  The tempo of the ...
