first week of finals done.

Monday: HAPPY MARATHON DAY!!!!!! I was able to get up close to the finish area....i worked at 11am down the street so i came in early to study then check out the finish area. I got to see the wheelchair men's finish, but then had to go to work where i just watched people trickle into the finish. it was chaos around there.



Right after i took this picture I was on TV!!!!!!!!! haha. they showed part of the crowd. good times






Yeah wheelchair racers! I can't imagine doing that for 26.2 miles!

Great job Bree and Roxy! :D

Tuesday:
Honestly, the back had been killing me...I knew exactly why though. I had been working a lot more lately at Citysports, which means standing for 7 hours straight. Anyways I downed some ibuprofen after I woke up early to study some and headed out for a run. It felt okay for a while, then my back felt like it was going to fall into my pelvis (haha...that's about right). However, my legs didn't give a shit...they wanted to go faster and keep me under 9 min pace. I tried to stay around 9 but at the end just went what my legs wanted to and held 8.15s..ish. None the less I went a 10k (6.2 miles) in around 57 minutes...not bad considering i walked some because of my back.

Funny thing, back felt better the rest of the day. exercise is medicine (that and ibuprofen :P )
2 finals down...went pretty well. pahtophysiology is over...loved that class.

Wednesday: woke up early, study, bike 1 hour 5 min, core, study, lab final, swim 2300 (haha so little), study. story of my life.

Thursday: study, work, final, beer, feeling buzzed off 1 beer, bike 1 hour, run 2 miles (ave pace= 7.48 min/mile), passsssss out.

By the way, the winner of the Boston Marathon this year who broke the record (2.05.52) came into Citysports. I met him and said congrats. I got excited to meet sucha celebrity.


Friday: work 7-3, then take home final which is taking FOREVER. someone shoot me. so, nothing workout wise. can you tell im crazy busy?

Saturday: Sat at a CPR class for 4 hours and continuing to work on my take home final which is quite the pain in the ass. nothing workout wise. im getting antsy not working out. aslkjf;askdjf;lasjfl;ka;
