I learned today that I lack STABILITY...

Today's Workout : 3.33 miles run/walk and Supreme 90 Day- Ultimate Ball

 Heyyy Brickhouses!!


Today was my second day of Supreme 90 Day and getting into my regular running schedule for my half marathon in April. Let me just say how much I LOVE Supreme 90 Day! I am challenged so much in such a short period of time (40 minutes).

I will CONQUER you!!!


Today I did Ultimate Ball and realized that I lack SO much stability in my core! For this workout, all you need is a exercise/physio ball and I was just rolling, falling, and rolling some more! It was ALL core work but I was sweating like I was doing Insanity!
I can't wait to see where I am in 30 days of this program, let alone 90. 

My run today was great! I feel like I am coming down with a cold so slept in this morning and flushed my system with H20. After Supreme 90 I honestly was debating if running in the cold-with a cold was the best idea but it's 2012 bay-beeeee!!

Every day..EVERY DAY!!!

So I grabbed my beanie, gloves, doubled layers, and headed out to get my three miles in!

One foot in front of the other. You gotta MOVE!!

Running in the evening is so beautiful!

At the end of my run. almost home

I got 3.33 miles in from my front door into the Greenway and back. No music (can't find my headphones) and no heart rate monitor (Mia has lost the attachment). Just me, nature, and my running coach on my Runkeeper app. My pace was 11:53, I am hoping by the end of this month I will be running a 10 minute mile!

Overall in terms of working out, running, and eating clean today was a good day.



How have your workouts been going since the start of the year? Do you have any fitness or workout goals for 2012?

  1. Congrats on the run! When I ran, I loved doing it with no music... just hearing the surroundings and my breathing.

    Hope you make your goal this month!

  3. I love that "Every Damn Day" t-shirt. Seriously. If you can't love it, curse it and do it anyway. Boo-yah!

  4. Half marathon! That's incredible! Huge props for even thinking about it!

    I love the exercise ball. I too lack stability in the core, but I'm getting there. It's a fun work out :)

  5. Oh, yay! I love your blog! My fitness goal is, by May, to run just barely under what you ran today. :) Seriously. I am going to just do a 5K and I've been starting super easy but I'm excited and have to start somewhere. Your energy is awesome!

  6. @a.eye I am getting used to running without music even though I am getting headphones Friday, I am thinking its not a big deal! Its my thinking time now :)

    @hikermom Ultimate Ball is CRAZY!! I can feel my abs working so I know it will work over time! I can't wait to see how I rock it in 30 days!!

    @Shannon Thank you! feelings of self doubt come every so often when I am finishing up just three miles, but as I get my endurance up I should be golden ;)

    @Shannon "2" Thank you for visiting I'm glad you like what you see :) If you're training and working yourself up YOU GOT THIS!!

  7. First of all, LOVE the Ice Cube vid. Second of all, good job on doing both a 40 minute workout AND running 3.33 miles!

    I don't know that my whole "clean eating" effort is going to last too long; I will continue to eat healthy, but I don't think I can sustain this level of deprivation (from coffee, sweets, wine, and carbs). It's killing me!!
