It's a new year!

Wow, I can't believe that it has been a year since I last wrote in this blog.  It was my intention to continue to have up to date posts.  Slack, I have been.  But, I have been active!  Last year, I became a fulltime vegan!  I also started going back to the gym and added weight lifting again.  But now I only go two times a week.  Here is my work out schedule:


Monday and Wednesday: HIIT Training at the Gym
Tuesday and Thursday: Run 3 miles
Friday: Rest
Saturday: Long run, 7.5-10 miles
Sunday: Either 1.5 - 2 mile run/walk


December was the best month of 2013 for me.  I ran my first race, the Savannah Bridge Run.  This is the toughest course in the state!  I did the Double Pump, running up and down the bridge 3 times.  It was an awesome experience.  I got my first black toe nail :)

Also, I am liking the changes that are happening with my body.  I am leaner, which is what I want.  I started going back to the gym in May 2013 and I am now just starting to see the changes that everyone else says they see.  Often, I catch myself staring and flexing in the mirror!  I still got a bit to go, but I am happy with what I have accomplished thus far. 


I have not been to the gym this year, but I have been running!  I ran 7.5 miles on Saturday and ran 1.5 and walked 1.5 on Sunday.  It was my intention to go to the gym on Monday, but I did not feel like it, and I was supposed to run today, but it was like 5 degrees outside.  So, I am running 3 miles tomorrow and Thursday.  Then, head to the gym on Friday and Saturday.  I am still getting it in!


I am going to keep up with the blog this year!  Stay tuned!
