At least I haven't been a delinquent work-er out-er...
Saturday morning I DID do the interval 6.2 miler I was planning. I felt awesome for the first 3-4 800's (.5 mile intervals) and the last two I was thoroughly exhausted!
Kind of an eye opener to how much farther I still have to go... which was kind of why I did it! I plan to do it again this weekend, flipping the order so I run the last .2 miles. Not a lot more but it's still more... so it's a win.
I did not continue with the 21-day challenge the rest of the weekend - I was totally wiped from the interval. I did do this workout yesterday using my 8 lb free weights where required, and did burpees for every-other cardio workout.... which was super hard but I felt awesome! .... when I was done...
Today I did this workout and I can pretty much guarantee a sore butt tomorrow... it's unavoidable if you do everything!
I upped my weight to 10 lb free weights today - small change but made a huuuuuge difference!!
I managed to get through the whole workout, but took a small break during the second round after the jump squats... it was very necessary!
Anyway, the rest of the week I plan on finishing the challenge (3 more!)

Today I did 3 rounds of this workout...
I was supposed to do 8... if that tells you how hard this was....
I'm excited to try again later, but for now I'm proud that I did 3!
I started off the first round doing everything with 10 lb free-weights (except the "around the worlds"...dang!) and the second and third rounds I did everything with 8 lb weights (again... except the "around the worlds")
I've already decided I will be doing this challenge again after I do my push-up challenge! I've seen huge results!
Tonight I'm eating this pizza I've made a lot lately... like.. A LOT...
I just bought a Pillsbury pizza dough at the store (I'm sure that it's probably better to make your own... but I'm lazy and they were 2 for $5!) and switch out pizza sauce for pesto that I made (super easy... deets at the bottom!) and top with zucchini, squash, onions and some mozzarella.
For the pesto I just added basil, parmesean, walnuts, garlic, and olive oil into a food processer... I don't really have amounts but it's really hard to mess up!
Tip of the day: Treat yourself! In a non-food way... you deserve it!
