Alli's running blog

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!!
