This morning, my mean girl was out in full force. I did not end up running my planned 5 miles during the weekend. By the time I wake up at 9AM on weekends, it's way too hot to run outside. So I got in 5 miles on the treadmill (9:14/mile pace).
The run itself was good, but I was definitely snarkier than usual. There were these two women walking on the treadmill next to me.
Woman #1 - You should really put up the incline to at least a 0.5. It burns so much more calories.
Woman #2 - Really?
Rena (in her head) - You should really try running. It burns a lot more calories.
| I should have totally said "Omg, I love how much calories you are burning. How do you do it?" |
Even though I didn't get any runs in, my weekend was awesome! On Saturday, I fit in a zumba class. The only bad thing about the class was that it was a cop out for me. I would have gotten a much better work out if I had run, but I was feeling lazy. But I tried to get a maximum workout from the zumba. I tried so hard to make each movement big and more of an effort that when the class was over, the woman behind me asked me how long I've been zumba-ing.
After the zumba, I went on a tour of an alligator farm. I figure I have a small window of opportunity to do the tourist thing while Stefan is in Baton Rouge visiting.
| I'm sitting on a six foot alligator. I would like to point out that the gator's mouth isn't taped. |
| Stefan is trying to eat the baby alligator. He was hungry. |
All in all, it was a great weekend. Did you guys do anything fun during the weekend?
