Last night I went out to meet up with all the girls from the softball team I joined for the summer! I am not great at any sports, but I've always wanted to play softball so I emailed an old friend who I knew played and asked her about it! She immediately said she would see if her team had spots and they did! I had a great time meeting everyone last night and am super excited to play this summer ...
Friday Favourites
Ahhh, Friday! Don't you love Fridays? My main reason is because I know I can sleep in a bit later on Saturdays cuz there's no school! I've been sleeping terribly this week so I'm hoping I can fall asleep before 2:30 AM tonight.... Anyhow, here are some of my favourites from this week! Playing piano with J I don't play piano like I used to and when I pull out my old Chopin or Liszt, it's kind ...
Workout Wednesday
I set my camera up at the gym to try to get some pictures for this post and later realized that I make a lot of faces while foam rolling. It honestly is very painful at times, but it has helped me so much and I am realizing how worth it that is. But, that's the reality of working out--sometimes it's fun, sometimes it's hard and sometimes it just plain hurts! I also realized that I'm kinda ...
Silent Sunday
The last two pictures are from today's run with Aimee! We are doing our 5k race in June so today we set out for our first run together. She was happy almost the entire time...until the end when she said, "Can't we just sprint so this can be over?" We did 2 miles (3.2km) by the lake and had a great time together! ...
Workout Wednesday (Minus the Workout Part)
Let's just get it over with right now--I worked out ONE TIME ONLY. The end. No excuses. No good enough reasons. I just didn't do it. I am currently thinking of signing up for the Chilly Half which is in less than two weeks. I am completely under trained to run a half which is partly why I want to do it. That makes sense, right?! A lot of the runners I met as part of JP's Team are doing the ...
Workout Wednesday
This blog is starting to feel like a confessional booth where I tell you all the things I'm NOT doing! January went really well and now February seems to be headed in the opposite direction as far as my workouts are going! You know it's bad when you go to the gym and are greeted by name and told you've been missed... oops! I have no good excuse for missing some workouts, so I won't try to come up ...
Workout Wednesday + Joining a Team
Last week I mentioned I was struggling to balance strength training and running, and this week I totally failed! I need to hit the gym early in the morning, but then I prefer to run later on when it is slightly warmer and also light outside! So maybe I need to hit the gym for strength training and then run later on the same day. Doing two workouts in one day seems just depressing ...
Workout Wednesday
Have you ever tried to take a picture of yourself at the gym?! Yeah--it is NOT easy! But, on the plus side, I definitely got to see some of my bad form, so now I know some things to work on! This week was a pretty good exercise week. I am feeling pretty committed and as January comes to a close, I am kinda proud of myself for not quitting! I've gone back to early morning workouts which I enjoy ...
Workout Wednesday
The past two days I've gone to the gym at night. I DON'T LIKE IT. There are so many people there all watching each other, chatting to their friends, and being loud! This week, if I want to go to the gym it has to happen at night, but next week I am going to be back to the 5AM thing where there are usually only two other people there! (Plus, when you go really early you can basically roll out of ...
Workout Wednesday
I have this bad habit where I workout for a few months and then stop everything completely for a few months. It basically ensures that I never actually get into shape. NOT THIS YEAR! This is what I did this past week! Wednesday: Les Mills Combat video at home Thursday: I went and joined Planet Fitness. They're new to Canada and you seriously can't beat the price of $10 a month. (I know that ...
