so i weighed in on saturday at 146.5.
which is .5 pounds more than my lowest weight ever, which was christmas eve, 2010.
at that point, i was finding it really hard to sustain healthy eating/exercise habits and alternating between restricting a lot and just not giving a fuck and eating whatever the hell i want.
nowadays, i’m at a nice balance. i can eat 1500 a day and not exercise or know i have a workout planned and eat like...
i skipped the gym after class today.
i had such a headache, i was exhausted, and i just plain didn’t feel good.
plus, where i parked cost $2 per hour, not $1, so i didn’t have enough quarters to pay for long enough to work out.
so i came home, got caught up on house, ate grapes (even though, honestly, i really wanted popcorn), and just did some yoga. i feel SO much better now. i’m sweaty and i don’t even...

I don’t like it when people talk to me at the gym. Politeness is ok (excuse me, sorry, etc), and I will always return them. But if I’m not at the gym with you, don’t know you from somewhere else, and have never seen you before today, I really don’t want to have a conversation with you.

Alan came into college as a physics and chem double major but switched majors to computer science because of calc three and P chem. I took biochem to round out my minor and he took A chem. P Chem IS the actual worst.
oh no! not calc 3 :( everyone who survived calc 2 and moves on to calc 3 said it was easier than calc 2...

Damn. Chem minor was enough for me. I do NOT like chemistry. Good luck with O-chem! Personally, I thought one was harder than two. If it’s what you love, I’m sure you’ll be fine though. Just a lot of memorization.
lol yeah, everyone says o chem 1 and calc 2 are the worst classes ever offered. i got a...

haha, every time i saw the cameras, i tried to look somewhat alive and alert and smile. just for the race photos!!!
hahaha i didn’t even try for the one like 5 miles in. i just figured there would be more photographers at the end and i’d smile there. which works out, because apparently they...

I like this photo!!!
right? i love this one! it’s one of three i’m fully visible in it and this one looks really good! like i’m actually running, not dying.

holy crap girl, looks so busy!
lol it’s 16 credits and i’m out by 4:15 everyday with only two classes on friday! i’m not complaining. i had 15 credits this past semester and my wednesday was 9:30-8:30 with a total of like two hours free. it sucked.
run done!
2.13 miles in 21:23. 10:03 pace.
not too shabby, considering i couldn’t move sunday after the race and it hurt to bend my knees more than 45 degrees yesterday.
amandagetsfit asked: Whoops, never mind! Didn't read the rest of the post after the pictures - it was from last year! lol. Never mind! Hopefully ours will be up tomorrow :)

tomorrow, i run!
2 miles, since i have a 5k on sunday.
2 miles tomorrow, 3 miles thursday, 2 miles friday, race on sunday!
then i think i’m going to take a week off of running and do a bunch a bunch of lifting since i’ll be back at pitt and have access to weights!
then i’ll be right back into it to start training for the great race 10k and the runner’s world half!
finished the course in 2:28:05!
hit the 10k mark at 1:06:30 and the 13.1 mile mark at 2:26:19 (whole course was 13.25 for me).
pretty proud of myself! i’m going to run the runner’s world half on my birthday and try for a 2 hour half!
but in the meantime, happy :)
i wish i could have gone to the expo :(
damn you, work!
i want to walk around and get a lot of free stuff :(

rough start to my week.
yesterday (sunday), i planned on waking up at 7 to run at 8 before i went to work 10-7. 8 miles, ~ an hour and a half, it would be perfect! i went to sleep shortly after midnight, which would give me a little less sleep than desired, but whatever. i’d be okay. woke up at 7, turned off my alarm, and then actually woke up at 8:35. well, fuck. so i was like okay, i’ll just run after work....
