While I have come to love running and have run many races over the last year, I have also committed myself to exploring other sports and fitness activities. Recently I found a spinning class that I have greatly enjoyed being a regular at. And with the help of a personal trainer for a few sessions, E and I have developed a series of circuits to benefit our running. We primarily use free weights and have learned how to incorporate the Bosu ball into our workouts.
More recently E and I have taken on the challenge of tackling hill repeats...namely the infamous Heartbreak Hill. We have only run hills a couple times thus far, but have a weekly hills date set up. Wednesdays at 8 am. We found a stretch of H.H. that we run 6x. Definitely a challenge to get myself out of bed for the 8 am hills...but man does it feel good when it's all done. I enter my day high on endorphins, knowing that I have already accomplished a lot while most of my peers are probably still sleeping.
Personal goal: Be able to do a pull-up!!
omg, you are too intense for me, Kate!
