Short To Do List/TGIF
I just wanted to let you, dear Internet, know that I will be posting a kind of “introduction” post (with a photo and all!) on Monday, which is my weigh-in day. I feel weird continuously posting without you all knowing my face/body/name, so I will be doing that on Monday.
To Do:
Study Anatomy and Physiology

Training: Day 4/250
Ran outside today because it was warm-ish and I just couldn’t be bothered to go all the way to the gym (since I wasn’t on campus…I use my university’s gym.)
Anyway, I did the 2.5 miles, but the route was so hilly I did it in a slower time. Also, my calves were aching a little, so I’m super glad tomorrow is my rest day. :) I got some ice on them today, and will again...

Training 3/250
I took my A&P exam this morning, so the morning was pretty stressful. After a nap and some food, I went to the gym and did my 2.5 miles. I did it in slightly less than 30 minutes, and each day it is getting easier.
Right at the end of my workout, a cute guy, who had lapped me like 10 times already, turned (while running) and says, “Just wanted to say good job!” I laughed and said...

Training: Day 2/250 (yesterday, Jan. 24)
Yesterday was great. I had to spend the whole day studying for my Anatomy and Physiology exam (which was today), so going to the gym for my run was a great break from that. I’m pleased to say my rest day treated me well. On Sunday, I had been really tired during my run and had a bad time, but last night I did 2.5 miles in 30 minutes! Yes, yes, that’s slightly sad, but it’s an...
