Another weekend has come to a close and another Monday is here. This Monday, however, does not bother me as much since it will only be a four day work week for me. J Friday I am packing up and heading to my old alma mater for some football action. Go Noles!! I can’t wait! Only four more days until I reliving my college days (minus the late night fried chicken runs).
This morning really was not that painful to get up and run this morning. I never had a chance to do one of my long runs this weekend, so my legs were craving some running attention! I did a nice easy run and time had allowed it I could have easily gone much, much farther!
Morning Stats:
Distance: 4.86 miles
Time: 50 mins 28 secs
I never had a chance to work my abs yesterday so after my run I buckled down on the floor and crammed in a 10 minute ab session.
o 50 Crunches (x2)
o 50 Reverse Crunches
o 50 Side Crunches (on each side)
o 25 Combination Crunches
o 50 Bicycles
o 50 Rope Climbs ( legs up in the air, lift shoulders, and act like you’re climbing a rope by putting one hand on top of the other as you reach up)
Breakfast this morning was quick and easy. I had my leftover Pumpkin Spice Muffin from my lunch at Mimi’s Cafe on Saturday and some fresh pineapple and grapes.
This muffin was just as great as the one I sampled on Saturday. I am so thrilled that I asked for it in a to-go box right away so I could enjoy it this morning.
I hope everyone had a great weekend and are ready for another work week!
