Challenge
I forgot to add in my post about my challenge yesterday. So here it is!
Water: 24 oz water, 32 oz powerade, 8 oz gatorade, 16 oz orange juice
Core: 100 cent core again
Stretching: Alex helped me with my stretches. We did ankles and hamstrings. I have pictures from the ankles where we used therabands.
Flex forward
Flex to the side
Flex to the other side (I like alex’s face hahaha)
Flex away
Icing: I then iced using my Ice Up. LOVE this! Except our dorm freezer doesn’t freeze it very well. 😦
I also refueled after my run with this
And a nuts about chocolate luna bar
This morning
Unfortunately I did not get the RA job I was really hoping for. But my friend Lanie said that of the 7 people she knew that applied, only 1 got a position. Apparently there were 80 of us new comers and 70 RA’s that were returning and only 90 RA positions available. So it was a slim pickin’s. I’ll try again next year and just have to look at the positives from this.
Positive: I’ll be able to celebrate my birthday at home
Positive: I’ll be able to focus on my studies and running
Positive: Will have more summer time at home
Of course there are many negatives to not getting the position, but we won’t focus on those!!
Breakfast
Same as yesterday. Whole wheat bagel with peanut butter and chocolate chips.
Just look at the yumminess!
Lunch
Corn dog and cheese tots.
Running
Had 6 miles to run. My friend Megan ran 3 miles with me. We ran really slow and easy because she is recovering from an injury. Then the last 3 I ran solo.
6 miles in 53:37 @ 8:56 pace
| Mileage | Time |
| mile 1 | 9:25 |
| mile 2 | 9:36 |
| mile 3 | 9:43 |
| mile 4 | 8:20 |
| mile 5 | 8:28 |
| mile 6 | 8:02 |
I then iced my legs afterwards.
Dinner
chicken sandwich, cheese tots and cheese sauce for my sandwich. Yeah how healthy huh? But yummy and full of carbs!
