Last week I have been a mess. A total mess... I pretty much spent the whole day at the hospital on Monday. On Tuesday, I was so exhausted that I just came back home after my class and slept. Literally, just slept and then went for hot yoga at night. I knew that there was no point in sitting around the house worrying so I tried my best to get back into my routine. I kept myself busy in the lab and kept up with my regular exercise. Now I'm getting myself back to my blogging track and hopefully nothing will get in my way until my grandma's test results come back (we have to wait forever for anything medically related- thank you Canadian healthcare system!)
I didn't formally record my exercises this week but I did do 2 sets of plank workouts, 2 Bikram Yoga classes, either two or three 30 min jogs (don't remember), and a nice 8 mile run on Sunday!
This Sunday, I was blessed with a beautiful spring day with the temperature being amazing 10C (50F). That's the highest it has been in the last month!!! Of course I took opportunity of this day and went for a nice slow jog. I ran about 3km till my friend's house and then we ran another 10km together. It's amazing how much easier it is to run with someone and time just passes by so quickly too!
For today's post I compiled a bunch new songs that I've added to my MP3 just for running. Hope you like them :)

You might want to try 'these words' by Natasha Bedding field.
Cascada is awesome! Her songs are so fun and carefree- perfect for a run. Ooh I like Natasha Bedding but I've never heard of that particular song. Thanx for the suggestion :D
DeleteOh, no! Big hugs from Pittsburgh. I really hope that things turn for the better :D
ReplyDeleteThanx :)
DeleteLove springtime runs!! It feels so good after a cold winter . . . . can't wait for Chicago to get there. Soon, hopefully. Thanks for the music ideas--I need to refresh my iPod selection! :)
ReplyDeleteRefreshing the iPod is always fun :P I so spent 2 hours doing that on Sunday.
DeleteI'm so sad that it's going to get cold again in Toronto. The weather is just so unpredictable all the time. Bummers :( Hope it warms up in Chicago ^^
Just sending love and good vibes to you and your grandma!
ReplyDeleteThanx Ellen :)
DeleteI hope your Gran is ok! And you too!!! There must be something in the air because March has just been hard!!! Love the play list! I can't believe how cold it is, 10 degrees and I'm freezing and complaining so hard! :) I'm a wimp!!
ReplyDeleteGee I wish it was 10 degrees in Canada :) It's actually a really nice temperature to run at because you're not really sweating much. Plus remember that it always feels 10 degrees warmer when you're running :P
DeleteI dunno how you survive in that heat though. My friend from Australia tells me it's often 40C out!!! I would just melt in that temperature 0.0
