    ~~waves to all the new people!! Welcome! ~~
    **Kudos to all those logging their activity! Way to be accountable**

    Didn't log much yesterday because I was exhausted. Yesterday was SUP race day...(and today will be another post-race rest day).

    1hour 20 minutes of cardio and 3.85 miles of racing - Done (20.7 minute miles). Thought my times were super bad since I was at the end of the pack, but actually it was just the race field was fast and the conditions were so much better than last year. I did lose some steam near the end (I was trying for sub 20 minute miles like in my first race this month) and need to figure out why I lost steam, since I was staying hydrated and made sure I ate some bars before going out. Although this was my fourth race in three weeks so it could just be my body is just plain tired. It's been a very aggressive race month locally (usually we get ~2 races / month max) and the conditions in the previous two races were challenging with high winds and swells, which beat me up a bit. Yesterday was beautiful with low chop, though the wind picked up near the end of my race. Still any day on the water is a great day.

    So checking in for my fitness goals...
    1. Work out goals:
    -- 4 races completed for the month! Hallelujiah!
    -- Accomplished cardio at least 4 times this past week (think it was actually 5 total)
    -- Didn't do my strength training with bands goal. Will work on it for this upcoming week.
    -- 2 days of Kettlebell done this past week.
    -- Missed the plank challenge yesterday, but otherwise on track.
    2. Still working on my macro tracking, but it's going in the right direction highlighting areas where I need to boost/adjust my intake.
    3. Success at drinking over 8 glasses of water a day for the whole week.
    4. Still working on 7-9 hours of sleep a night, had a couple days under 7 this past week.

    All in all a positive healthy week. Now, to repeat this pattern and do it better this week!!

    Already walked 2 miles today. I know it isn't much, but it is for me here lately. Hopefully, I will at least a 30 minute work out in gym today before class tonight. Starting the week out right!

    I over ate my calorie count today, but . . . I finished a 40-minute kick-butt kickboxing workout. This is progress!

    RespecttheKitty, way to go on the C25K!
