Tuesday, 4/16/13
Short post is short for today.  (Aww.)  We had a lecture to prep us for our written test in a few weeks, so I didn't get to do much.  However, I still walked 0.25 miles before class and ran 0.25 miles after class was dismissed.  That's better than nothing, right?

Comments: Since we had another short lecture today, I didn't get to do as much cardio as I normally fit into my routine.  However, I still got a great workout, especially on the treadmill today.  It was difficult warming my leg muscles up again after sitting for half an hour, so I feel very proud for still running today.
