Fitness Update

Firstly, I'd like to send my well-wishes to everyone affected by the fires in SoCal... my hometown has been evacuated, and we're pretty sure my aunt & uncle's brand-new house in Yorba Linda either burned down or came very close to being burned down (they're in Korea, so we don't know for sure). I'm hoping for no winds and good fire-fight progress... I would HATE to see my elementary school, high school, friends' homes etc damaged. Keep your fingers crossed!

Secondly, I'd like to explain my crazy surge in posts. It's just that I hate studying for rotation exams, and therefore the closer I get to a test (ie 5 days away), I update my blog a lot more because it's better than studying. So I guess you can expect a daily post this week, and then I'll fall off the blogosphere again.

And, finally, to the petty stuff: Fitness update. We're doing so awesomely amazing!
Sat 11/09 30min treadmill, 1 set of upper body weight workout #1 to "wake up" the muscles.
Sun 11/10 30min treadmill, hard core abs.
Mon 11/11 20min pilates.
Tue 11/12 30min on the treadmill, hard core legs.
Wed 11/13 30min on the stairmaster, 2 sets of upper body weight workout #2
Fri 11/14 AM run to/through the park, 4 mi circuit.
Sat 11/15 Cleaned the apartment hard core (trust me this is a workout).
Sun 11/16 5K on treadmill, hard core legs.

For clarification: 30 minutes on the treadmill is ~5K / 3.1mi for me, ~3.6mi for Eric. "Hard core" abs/legs means that we do the workouts that I did back in cheer/gym/dance.

I don't have a scale at home and I try not to weight myself too often - I try to go by the way my clothes fit and how I generally feel. This week I've generally felt exhausted, sore, but totally awesome. Hopefully soon I'll feel like my butt & thighs aren't snausages in my pantalones. Hooray, fitness~!
