Rest week (pretty much)- back at it this week
I had been doing double workouts for a week and a half, and I just needed to chill for a minute. This week was insanely busy anyway, so I didn't get to work out as much. I did do a double on Friday afternoon-Pure Barre and YMCA. Even though my body needed the rest, I feel so much worse than before (I also ate some not…

One of THOSE days-can you relate?

Muscle soreness
Hey Fitness Pals! I have been hitting it hard trying to preare for a mini-marathon, even though I won't be able to compete in one until the fall. I want to be in shape by April... anyway, I was up to doing 5.5-6 miles a day, really hitting my stride; and then in the past week, my muscles have been extremely sore. I get…
