No, I’m not joining a bobsled team, but I did get to watch the movie the other night which was quite awesome! In other news, I suppose I should explain why it’s been a while since my last post. Last week, after my running and other exercises my leg started tightening up and feeling extremely sore (to the point where I was having a hard time walking to class). So I decided to take a week off from running, but now I am back and in record time! I got one step closer to making my 5k goal and set my record!

Workout Song of the Day: “Waking Up” by One Republic
Absolutely love this song. My interpretation of it is that it is about renewal and coming into your own with what’s around you. I finally am starting to feel like my life is normalizing to being back in Minnesota. Make sure you keep listening the last 2:30 are my favorite part!

It’s new, but I’m focusing on my training and experiences as a runner, as well as giving any meagre advice I can. Thanks!
