Running Report

I felt horrible when I woke up today. So, in crazy Nadia style, I got mad at my own uselessness and made myself go to the gym, where I proceeded to kick my own ass for half an hour.

I really thought I wouldn't make it through today; I kept thinking "I'm never going to make it, I'm never going to make it..."

SHUT UP BODY -- DON'T WANNA HEAR IT

Whatevs. I made my body do it anyway. I'll show you, body! Just for the whining, I'll make you do sprints!

Sprints are great. I did three: one at 10 min, 15 min and 20 min, one minute each followed by one minute of walking.

Upshot to sprinting: shoots up the adrenaline and then makes the running feel eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeasy afterwards.

Distance 2.52 km
Time: 30 min
Velocity: 5 km/h

Monday Morning

I wake up and spend too long THINKING about whether or not I should go to the gym.

Argh.

No more thinking -- JUST GO NADIA.

Okay, okay, here I go.

I hadn’t been going to the gym last month for the stupidest reason: the payment didn’t go through on my credit card.

Today, I went there with a fist full of cash and was determined to get back on my treadmill. But, as it turns out, the money all went through yesterday. Oh.

So I had been stressing about nothing. Ha. So silly.

Time: 20 min
Level: 4
Feeling: AWESOME! Energetic despite being sleep low this week and my mood is good. Just what I need to plow through all this work on my desk.
