My training schedule for this week is already out of whack. I did a great job last week and even did the running I was supposed to on Saturday. Yesterday, the training called for a 30 minute swim and 45 minute run. Had it been a regular Sunday, I would have got this completed. But with it being the 4th of July...didn't happen. I am going to have to make that up one of the days this week. Not sure when yet. Maybe I'll swap my Friday rest day for it, since I rested on Sunday?
I feel disgusting today. Hot dogs, burgers, Frosty floats, and beer all weekend. Really hoping I'll start feeling back on track tomorrow. We'll see...
Today was supposed to be a strength day, normally I go to boot camp. My mom had physical therapy tonight so I had to take care of making dinner while she was there, so I wasn't able to make the 7 p.m. class. I did, however, have to help Nels move most of the stuff out of his Sycamore apartment today so with the way my body is feeling, I'm thinking that's what will have to suffice for today. I swapped Tuesday's workout for today, went running 4 miles with my brother. He is really fast, so I am wiped out. I appreciate him going with me because I know that even though he's still fast for me, he's actually going quite slow for his normal place. Thanks bro : )
Besides all of that, I really did have a wonderful 4-day weekend. Nels and I won't be seeing each other this coming weekend due to some bachelor & bachelorette parties, so it was great that we got to spend so much time together. It was a little sad that it was our last weekend in Sycamore. We hope to move back there one day. We spent some time walking around the NIU campus & lagoon area -
Nels, the Goose Whisperer:
Then we grilled out with our good friends Sean and Burcu - they're a great excuse to visit DeKalb : )
Then we all went to see the fireworks in Kirkland, a small town about 15 minutes from DeKalb. They may be a small town, but they have an AMAZING fireworks display! This is the 3rd year in a row we've all gone together to see the show. We laid out our blankets to claim our spot (which ended up getting wet from the rain) and spent some time at the carnival before the fireworks. I had so much fun on the Tilt A Whirl with Sean and Burcu! Nels didn't go on it because he gets motion sickness from it (BABY!!! haha) but he took some pics:
Overall, a good weekend. Thought it was interesting how different my body felt after eating crap food. I didn't like it : (
But I do like him : )
