BBB6 Week 4 Recap

Good morning, everyone!  I hope your week is getting off to a great start.  Joe and I had a pretty low-key weekend.  There was a lot of watching movies on TV, eating in, and enjoying each other's company.

It's time for a recap of the fourth week of Best Body Bootcamp.

Activity
I did pretty well with activity this week!
Monday-3 mile run in the morning.  I set out for a 6 mile run, but after listening to my body, I knew I needed to cut it in half.

Tuesday-rest day
Wednesday-rest day
Thursday-20 minute run on the treadmill for speedwork + Workout B (drop sets for upper body)
Friday-3.2 mile run-went pretty well!

Saturday-BodyPump class.  My gym released the new BodyPump 86, which I LOVED!  There were a lot of single-bottom half combo moves, which I really enjoyed.

Sunday-6.5 mile long run.  I went out with the mindset of running 6 minutes, walking 1 minute to survive the humidity and did very well with it until 41 minutes in.  I got the sudden urge to go to the bathroom, and after I stopped at a gas station, I just couldn't get back in the groove.  BUT, the run met my 1/2 marathon training goal of under 11-minute miles, which I'm proud of!

I'm very pleased with the activity I got in this week!  This week, I want to actually get in the strength workouts that Tina sends out.  After all, that is why I signed up for the program, right?

Goals
I kept drinking 72+ ozs. of water as one of my goals.  I did met this goal 5/7 days, which happened to line up with the days that I worked out!

My second goal is to take a daily multi-vitamin.  After reading Katie's post about Vitafusion gummy vitamins, I decided to pick some up for myself.

I figured they'd encourage me to take them more regularly than my previous vitamins.

Chewing two gummies > swallowing two horse pills

I was right!  I might this goal 7/7 days!  I think that's the first time that I actually met a goal every day of the week.  I hope that this will continue :)

Highlight of the Week
Actually going on my long run and doing rather well with it made me happy.  I'm also proud of myself for taking a vitamin every single morning.

Goal for Next Week
With my friend Valerie's bachelorette coming up this weekend, I want to make sure to still get in my workouts.  I'm thinking that a shorter runner would actually happen on Saturday at our destination (I can't say yet...it's a surprise for Valerie!...but it is definitely a place where I want to run), so I need to get in my long run for the week on Thursday.

Question for you: Do you take a daily vitamin?
