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!

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

What's New With You? Link-Up #1

Welcome to the very first "What's New With You" link-up!  This is all about sharing what's going on in your life, and I can't wait to catch up with all of you!  Make sure you check in with my co-host, Kristen , to see what she's up to. Here's what's new with me: House Hunting Update Last week, Dan and I put in an offer on a house that we really liked!  It seemed perfect to me- great location, at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, plenty of storage space and a huge back yard.  We ended up in a bidding war with another couple, and nearly got the house but couldn't move in as early as they wanted, so we passed. I was disappointed at first, but now I'm realizing all the things that weren't great and I was willing to put up with- walk to bus stop was down a busy road with no sidewalk, the flat yard ended at a cliff which would scare me with Selma running around outside, the bedrooms were tiny and so was the kitchen.   Now that Dan

Lululemon Reviews

Hi everyone!  Today I have lots of reviews to share from a recent trip to Lululemon.  I was in need of some winter running clothes and was excited to try on all their new items.  I found some amazing pieces, and was also disappointed by some others.  I'm going to share all of my thoughts, so I hope you enjoy! Speed Tight V *Brushed in Darkest Magenta $108 Size 6 Made for running, Medium Rise, Reflective Cuffs, Side and back pockets, Hugged sensation Wearing the leggings with the Rush Hour LS (not online) I've never owned a pair of Speed Tights before, but everyone raves about them.  I couldn't believe how comfortable these were!  These have plenty of compression to hold everything in, but aren't restrictive at all.  The length is great for me, and the fit is absolutely perfect!  I love how these look and there are always new colors coming out in this same cut. I picked these in the "brushed" version because they're supposed to be wa
