Run
For me, running is a love hate relationship. Most days I'll go for a short run to relieve stress that has been built up for that day. I like the aspect of exploring new trails. It's the feeling you get the day after, the feeling of muscles in your legs are tightening and your world expanding.

Time
Did you ever feel like you just didn't have enough time in the day to get everything done? I sure have.
While the semester is coming to an end for me, I have found that time hasn't been on my side.
With projects and papers, I feel I don't even have sleeping time.
So where does working out play apart in my day?
Well, I make time an hour a day, every day to workout. It helps me relieve stress and gives me energy. I have come to the conclusion that no matter how much or how little of time you have, if you are passionate about something you'll make the time for it.
One thing I do to plan my time well is figure out what I need to get done. When I walk to class, I'll also check my email at the same time on my Smart phone. I'll make a "to do" list while walking home from my class. Those three little minutes adds up. I also figure my schedule out in my head... "I have one hour between classes, I can do this homework, that way later I can do this instead." ect.
Try it!

Determination
So I finally have a workout plan. It's a week long that I'll be doing at the gym. I have been striving to tone and with this workout I'm going to be able to do that.
I'll show you the workout in a couple days when I get some progress. I'll be starting it tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes :).

Summer is here!
For some of you, you experience summer weather everyday. But if your from the New England area you don't get the luxury of that. I love New Hampshire though, you get the best of both worlds when you live where I live.You get a rain season, a warm season, a snowy and cold season and my favorite, the fall, where New Hampshire trees get color.
This weekend, I had the opportunity to go hiking and kayaking. My workout this weekend consisted of how many things I can do outside. Unfortunately, I got sun burnt, but had a great time being outside in the sun.
It's always good getting outside and enjoying nature, you don't even realize your exercising!

Classes
Well I haven't wrote in a while. I'm sorry to all my viewers. Overloading my senior year of college, taking honors classes and other classes that use up the majority of my time has been the theme for a couple weeks now.
My insanity workout was a fail. An hour a day doing the same activities wasn't ideal for me. With this spring weather all I want to do is to be outside anyways. I have decided to make my own workout which consists of me working out with one of my really good friends Amy. As well as hiking on weekends, kayaking and anything else I can do.
So I apologize for me being MIA (missing in action). You'll be seeing more of me.

Today
I'm not perfect. Sometimes I stop working out, not because I'm lazy but mainly because I don't have the time. When I overloaded in classes again this semester I didn't think I would be using every second of the day. I have been over loading classes for a couple semesters now and never thought I wouldn't have the time in day to workout. As I look in the mirror, I see muscle loss.
I don't want to go back the way I felt and looked for that matter.
Well, today will be the day I'll push myself for an hour to complete insanity, now until I'm done. Time can be my excuse but waking up an hour earlier everyday won't kill me.
Be my motivation, because I'm starting today.
