I couldn't seem to get a gym routine going without being all over the place, so my boyfriend is helping me out and motivating me at the same time by making me a routine every day. I couldn't pass up sharing!

If anyone wants to do these with me I'll keep posting them :)

Day 1

Run 15 Minutes
-Pace shouldnt be too strenuous, but hard enough that you cant continually sing/talk.
