Alli's running blog

Due to popular request, I am once again back hahahahah. Anyway, I haven’t been running a lot but I’ll treat this like an exercise journal (or maybe just a regular journal, that’s what usually happens lol) today I went & lifted then went in the cardio room & biked 10.5ish miles. my best homie Rylie met me there when I was done lifting & she finished biology. Then we watched The Bachelor: After. An incredible program, truly. Arie’s the worst. Lauren made a bad decision. Becca’s cool. I can’t wait for spring break. Like a lot. HBD to my daddio cause he’s the coolest around & I love him

Lifting between class #1 & #2. Upper body. The attempted bombing at PV had me all out of whack today. Scary stuff. Guess gun control isn’t the answer??? Weird. 

Western swing that night. My favorite class. Also wrote 3 pages for my 8 page paper. My professors are trying to kill me

Another 10 miles on the bike. I’ve found I enjoy biking so on the days I don’t have room in my schedule to lift, I go to the cardio room & bike. Two thumbs up. THREE thumbs up for going home tomorrow for sprang break. Just one test, one assignment, & three classes left #blessedtobestressed

I just realized my blog post 2 days ago should’ve started with “back by popular demand.” I could change it, but it just wouldn’t be the same. I guess that’s show biz

None exercise today other than a walk this morning. I had work last night & when I got home my friends came over & we didn’t get back til 2 am. I realized my best option would be to stay up all night because I had two tests today & sleep deprived Alli is a lot smarter than regular Alli. So we pulled an all-nighter & went on a walk around town at about 5 am, maybe 2 miles? 

I got an 80% on one of my tests & I promise you I guessed on more than half the questions. My theory still stands. I’ll let y’all know what I got on the other test when I get my score back

SO these last few months I’ve been kinda lost in what I want with my body & what I’m willing to sacrifice & what to do & everything. Well, I’ve been reading this book & it’s got eating guidelines & exercise guidelines & honestly life guidelines. It’s actually pretty incredible & the guy is really informed on everything he teaches. So today I started this eating “diet” & tomorrow I will begin the exercise portion of what he teaches. I think I’m going to keep all my plans & results in a journal but I’ll probably blog the exercise part of what I do every day. 

Anyway, today I just lifted upper body. It was good. That’s all I got.

A RUN! This morning I accidentally slept through all my classes for the day (I know, pathetic. It was an accident) so then Zach came over & we hung out till he left for nephi. Then I decided to finally run. 

Part of the new thing I’m doing is cardio every other day & today I was really feeling a run. On the treadmill because I was gonna be alternating paces a lot & didn’t want to deal with my watch. Each level had a different pace, & the paces ranged from 10:00-7:00 I did 20 minutes with each minute a different level. It was extremely difficult because I haven’t ran in 5ever, but I’m gonna get way better & have my range be like 8:00-5:00 someday. Anyway, it was definitely the hardest running workout I’ve done since high school which felt SO good. Yeah, now I just needa do some homework & go to bed at a decent time tonight so I can actually go to classes tomorrow

Lifting lower body! Quads, hamstrings, calves, & abs. The plan I’m following has shorter workouts with really high intensity so it was hard but quick which was nice. English is cancelled today #blessed but I absolutely have to go to courtship & marriage because I haven’t been in 2 weeks (but also last week was spring break so it sounds a lot worse than it actually is) I went to bed at like midnight:30 last night which is like 2 hours earlier than I usually go to bed so I got some gooood sleep & I’m probably gonna take a nap too

Biking today. Same workout idea as Tuesday with the levels & time & everything. About 5.4 miles or something like that. It was hard but very good!!

Lower body lifting between classes. Quads, hamstrings, calves, & abs. Not a lot to report. Had a killer weeekend with the clan. Life’s so good to me

Nothing today. Both my classes were cancelled so me & Zach went to lunch in Manti then went & shot guns #redneckin then did homework the ENTIRE rest of the day which was helpful cause I have soo much

Upper body lifting. Shoulders, chest, back, triceps, biceps

Biking 20 minutes after classes. I was gonna go before classes but I could not get out of bed. I’m not getting enough sleep at all
