the title pretty much sums up how I feel right now. I’m breaking out like a 15 year old going through puberty, so I can only assume that stress has caught up with me. I also haven’t slept through a solid night in, oh, I guess about a week now, which has been swell. I REALLY enjoy waking up in the middle of the night. it’s my fave.
so things are going well, as I’m sure you can surmise.
last week’s workouts sort of happened. [and yes, I realize I’m two days late in posting this – a new all time low] here we go:
Monday: 6 mile run (easy) 5.75 miles at Terry Hershey happened. it was hot and humid. I also forgot how hilly Terry Hershey is, so this run was a fun little reminder of that. There was also NOTHING easy about this running. Nothing at all.
Tuesday: BodyPump, 45 minute incline walk nope. did a 10 minute warm-up on the elliptical, 45 minutes of shoulders + triceps and then came home and ran 2.62 humid miles for Boston – no music, no nothing except my thoughts and prayers with all of those affected.
Wednesday: 20 min. easy run in the AM, 20 min HIIT (PM) 2.2 miles in 20 minutes in the morning – kept it easy and really reflected on how grateful I am that I’m able to run. 20 minutes of incline walking in the evening [holy h*ll I forgot how hard incline walking is] + 30 minutes of back + biceps.
Thursday: 20 min. Jillian Michaels Legs, 4 miles (easy) 2.29 miles in 20 minutes on the treadmill in the morning while I learned about what was happening in West, Texas [wtf, world!]. 15 minutes of squats – lunges – deadlifts – wall sits in the PM + 25 minutes of incline walking.
Friday: 20 min Jillian Michaels Abs Rest day.
Saturday: 4ish easy miles + 20 min Jillian Michaels Arms 4 easy miles on the treadmill before having to go to a work event.
Sunday: 6 miles Very much unplanned rest day where I sat and felt sorry for myself and how stressed I am all day long. Ironically, I did nothing to relieve that stress, which only stressed me out more. Then I had dairy queen, which was just as delicious as I remembered, but left me with a horrible stomachache and now I’m breaking out.
So basically, I did nothing that I planned out. I’m so behind in life right now that I’m just kind of winging my workouts right now, so that’s fun. But maybe by tomorrow I’ll have a plan. Maybe.
