Waiting for Movers

June 23: 1 mile Prospect Park

50 sit-ups, 25 push-ups

June 24: 1 mile Prospect Park

50 sit-ups, 25 push-ups

Now I'm waiting for the movers to arrive. Sorted through all my stuff all weekend and definitely have less than when I started!

What I Will Miss

There are plenty of things I will not miss about Brooklyn. The hospital, traffic, driving, parking, and some of the attitudes. But there are plenty of things I will miss. Prospect Park is definitely one of them - the park in my backyard. Amerikick is definitely another.

June 22: 1 mile Prospect Park

45 push-ups, 75+ sit-ups at karate

Packing and moving are two things I definitely will NOT miss.

Done, done, done!

And boy, it feels good!

June 21: 1 mile Prospect Park

50 sit-ups, 25 push-ups, 3 pull-ups (10 sec, 6 sec, 3 sec)

One More Study Day

Thank god. I really want this over with!

June 19: 1 mile Prospect Park early morning

June 20: lower loop Prospect Park

60 sit-ups, 30 push-ups, 6 pull-ups (6 sec each), +2 hands the other way 

Sparring tonight. Last sparring class. :( And, likely my last class with my running buddy Marco. It's getting real.

Last day to study! By tomorrow at this time, it should really be over.

Ouch

Blocking basics last night. Against each other. Forearms very bruised! Great conditioning though.

Additional June 17 workout: ATB before karate, 110 push-ups, 1 min of burpees, 40 v-ups. I still hate v-ups. I should practice those. 

June 18: Lower loop Prospect Park

50 sit-ups, 25 push-ups, 3 pull-ups (5 sec)

Planning to go to karate tonight. We'll see though. It's time to study...only have 3 more days!

Almost Summer

Warm during my run at 9 am. It'll officially be summer once this test is over.

June 17: Lower loop Prospect Park

55 sit-ups, 25 push-ups, 3 pull-ups

Trying to save myself a little. Have karate later...

Too Much Coffee

Kept me up until after 1 am! Less coffee, more water today.

June 13: 1 mile before karate

June 14: Prospect Park 1 mile

50 sit-ups, 30 push-ups, 6 pull-ups (around 4-6 sec each)

One More Week

I'm starting to get that feeling of 'I know what I know, I know what I don't know, let's just get this over with!'

My days at Amerikick are getting smaller. Will make every class from now til I leave for WAGO, but then that'll be it. Next time, I'll be a white belt again.

June 13: 1 mile up the hill in the morning

200 sit-ups in karate, 25 push-ups after. Plus 100 squats

June 14: 1 mile in Prospect Park

50 sit-ups, 25 push-ups, 4 pull-ups for at least 5 sec each

I Could Get Used to This

Up at 7. Breakfast at home. Morning run at 8. Studying by 9.

June 12: 1 mile Prospect Park

60 sit-ups, 35 push-ups, 4 pull-ups for around 5 sec each

Saw Nik, Dylan, and Ant yesterday. It's amazing what we've all been through since we met. Nik's about to have her second baby, Dylan's a little man, and Ant's program director for radiology at Harlem Hospital. And I'm done with fellowship. Pretty amazing.

I am a Gyn Onc

Graduation was awesome. Which surprised me, in some ways. Everyone was appreciative of me - and when you've spent 3 years not really feeling like anyone cares, it's nice to know that maybe you did make a teeny tiny difference.

June 11: lower loop Prospect Park

60 sit-ups, 30 push-ups, 3 pull-ups (12 sec, 4 sec, 1 sec)

And now, study.

Graduation Day

June 10: 1 mile Prospect Park

50 sit-ups, 25 push-ups, 1 pull up (4 sec)

Wasn't feeling the extras this morning. I'm ok with that. 

Today's the day! No longer a fellow - just a regular old Gynecologic oncologist!

Sunday Funday

Not really though. Just another day of studying. Blah. It's beautiful out today. Wish I could just spend it sitting outside enjoying the weather.

June 9: 1 mile Prospect Park

38 push-ups, 60 sit-ups, 3 pull-ups (12 sec, 10 sec, 6 sec)

Tomorrow, I finish fellowship. Holy shit! 

Sleep

Seemed to need it yesterday. Not sure why, but was asleep before 5 pm til 830 and then read for a while, back asleep before midnight. Slept til 7 and was shocked to see the sun. Thought it was supposed to rain all weekend. Guess not!

June 6: ATB once at karate and then the mile at home after sparring

June 7: ATB in the morning in the light mist

June 8: 1 mile Prospect Park

55 sit-ups, 30 push-ups, 3 pull-ups (10 sec, 8 sec, 4 sec)

Studying all weekend. Thesis defense and graduation Monday. Then two weeks of studying, the boards, and then it's DONE!

Morning Run

June 5: 1 mile Prospect Park

55 sit-ups, 25 push-ups, 1 pull up (10 sec)

Only did 1 pull up because I hit the 10 second mark. I'll do more tomorrow. Not that I'm too surprised or anything, but my legs hurt more today than yesterday from those spin kicks. Glad I didn't do karate last night!

Kirstie's birthday dinner tonight. Studying in between. Practiced my thesis last night  and the talk runs 26 of my allotted 30 min. Sounds good to me!

Prospect Park

God, I love running. And I will miss this park. 

June 3: 1 mile before karate

50 push-ups and 50 sit-ups at karate

June 4: Prospect Park full loop (3.4 miles)

25 push-ups, 50 sit-ups, 3 pull-ups (5 sec, 8 sec, 5 sec)

Skipped karate tonight because my groin hurts from the spinning kicks yesterday. Felt good to run though. Longest run since hurting my eye. Guess that means I'm sparring this week. :)

Sunny Days

A little heat wave to start June. Supposed to break today, but I really should have gotten up and out of bed a little earlier to beat the heat. And I was out at 9:15!

June 2: Prospect Park 1 mile

50 sit-ups/25 push-ups/2 pull-ups (6 sec, 2 sec)

Yesterday I did 35 push-ups, 3 pull-ups, 45 sit-ups.

Gotta fit into this dress for graduation!

June

Another month of lasts. Last weekend of call. Last month in Brooklyn. Last graduation for at least the near future!
