tribute_to_erasmus's Journal, 04 August 2009

I have my last summer class today! It's been a grueling session and I'm glad its over, but I must admit, I'll miss my classmates, most of whom are off to their internships.

It's a bittersweet moment also because I had expected to weigh considerably less by this point. Unfortunately, school, work and a demanding household have made exercise the lowest item on my priority list, though it's always on my mind.

The good news is that I went for a run yesterday. I walked/ran 5k in 28 minutes. Not great time but it's definitely an accomplishment considering I hadn't hit the treadmill in nearly a month. It felt great, ESPECIALLY because I thought, for the longest time, I was running kilometers, not miles! I had the surprize of my life, when getting off of the treadmill and looking at my Nike + ipod nano, I'd in fact done 60% more than I'd initially expected!! I'm feeling it now, though. My thighs are burning and I'm having a hard time bending down to shelves books. It's a good feeling though. I can't wait to go do it all over again tomorrow.

Nice job getting the 5k run in. Don't worry about the time factor because it's the quality of the run that counts. Keep it up buddy.
