It just messes up my whole day!<br />I've been taking a strength/cardio class from a new instructor at my gym and I am loving it. It is very challenging but fun too! <br />It is very hot and humid here in Mississippi so I always run in the mornings. On Saturdays if I'm in town I'll try and meet up with some friends and we will usually start running between 6 and 6:30 anything after that, it gets to hot the last part of our run!

It was so tough, and despite drinking a full hydration pack during my run, I lost almost THREE POUNDS from start to finish.<br /><br />6AM on a Sunday is some serious dedication.Jessie Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11217522564709638588noreply@blogger.com
