Last night I did my tempo run. It took me some time to find my right pace since I have not run a 5k in quite awhile. I decided to do 2 miles at tempo and figured I'd start at about a 12:15 pace. Well, that was actually too slow so I spent the next few mins trying to find the right pace. At some points, I was running around a 10 min pace, which I know was too fast, but my Garmin was also still adjusting. I think 11:30 is going to be my starting point next tempo run. I finished the 2 miles in a little over 23 mins.
I also did CXWorks last night and I'm starting to notice a difference in my strength. They are getting "easier" to do. We do lots of planks, bicycle crunches, and shoulder work and I usually end up with a knot in my stomach. It's a great feeling!
Here is one of the exercises that really works me out. This guy makes it look easy!
I have signed up for a 5k in April and I'm very excited. I don't think I'll be breaking a PR, but at least I am motivated again.
The exam I took the other day had a couple errors on it. Two questions were marked wrong when they should have been right. The instructor acknowledged the error and is working to fix it, so that is a good thing. This quarter, so far, has been less stressful than the last. Don't get me wrong, it is still a lot of work though. I have to say though, the hardest class last quarter was my favorite. I felt I learned a lot about organizational structure and leadership.
