Last Weekend of Call!

Last weekend of fellowship call. 10 days until graduation. 3 weeks til the boards. It's getting real.

May 30: 1 mile Before karate

May 31: 1 mile in Prospect Park

Yesterday was the first time sparring since I got hurt. Something about facing your fears and all that. But what I realized is that sparring is the better workout.

Gotta eat healthy for the next week - if I have any chance of fitting into my graduation dress...

Whirlwind Weekend

May 25: 1 mile in Downtown Billings

May 26: 1 mile in Downtown Billings before leaving for Yellowstone

May 27: 1 mile in Billings after returning from Yellowstone

May 28: 1 mile in the morning in MT

May 29: 1 mile Prospect Park

What a great trip! Beartooth, Yellowstone, all the critters, and quality time with Kev & Jen. Apartment is secured, purchasing property is put off (and I'm ok with that). Now I just need to figure out what kind of car I want. 

In the meantime, time to finish my thesis and get graduation over with! :)

Last Day of Jury Duty!

I think 2 weeks might be too long to put 23 random people in a room. An amazing psych experiment, sure, but it's gotten old.

May 23: 1 mile Prospect Park

May 24: 1 mile Prospect Park

Tomorrow, off to Montana with Kev and Jen. Can't wait!

Overcast and cloudy

May 16: Prospect Park AM run

May 17: Prospect Park AM run

May 18: ATB before my haircut

May 19: ATB late

May 20: Run with David before karate

May 21: Prospect Park 1 mile in AM and ATB before karate 

May 22: Prospect Park AM run

So yesterday AM at the conclusion of my morning run, I battled it out with a tree root - and the root won. Muddied and knees scraped, at least I wasn't seriously  hurt. 

Sensei Adrian asked if I was going to come back to sparring class. I can't this week because of journal club, but I probably will next week. Getting back on the horse and all...

Morning Run

May 15: Prospect Park 1+ mile 25/25

Holy shit, May's halfway over?  Minor panic attack...

Grand Jury

Getting an inside glimpse at the justice system for the next two weeks. Serving on the Grand Jury for Kings County. It's interesting, but I could do without it for these two weeks.

May 13: ATB before karate and a good total body workout at the dojo

May 14: Prospect Park 1 mile + 35 sit-ups/25 push-ups

Again, going to try to keep this up again. And maybe by summer do the real fur streak of 2 miles/50/50 everyday. Right now, I'm happy to do the mini.

It's a Beautiful Day

May 12: 1 mile Prospect Park

35 sit-ups/25 push-ups

Figured it's time to add those back to my daily run. We're doing the fitness challenge at the dojo, so I don't want to be behind. It's a race against myself anyhow. Just be better than yesterday.

Nice weather = study day at Starbucks

Let the day begin!

Whirlwind week

Wow. That was crazy.

May 6: 1 mile in New Orleans
