4/21
My friend and I went on a bike ride! I had issues with gear shifting and her bike didn't fit me well, but it was fun... and a bit of a workout (though unintentionally).
4/20
Finals are swiftly approaching and I have failed to document my exercisings. On 4/20 we biked (spinning) with a few hills, 15 second, 30 second, 1 minute, and the ultimate 2 minute sprint. It was INTENSE!

3/31
Swimming! This workout was INTENSE!
500 warm-up
We were supposed to do 12 x 100; 1-4 on 2:00, 5-8 on 1:55, and 9-12 on 1:50, but I couldn't sustain that speed... so I modified it and ended up doing at least 10 x 100 (maybe more) around 2:00 each time- which I felt was a moderate/fast pace, but rested in between when I needed it. It doesn't sound that bad, but even Jannalynn said that it was a really hard workout. I'll be able to shave off several seconds once I can flip turn without drowning!
2 x 50 all out sprint
1 x 50 cool-down

3/30/10
I was feeling frustrated with homework (again), so went on a walk with 3 sporadic 3-minute-ish jogs. It was about 2 miles.
3/29/10
So last week was spring break and it was AMAZING! Despite its amazingness, I didn't exercise much. I swam in a hot springs (which was a lot of work! I swear my buoyancy was different- I had to fight to not sink), went on a couple of rather short runs, plus a 3 mile walk to the park with my dear friend Jamie. This week however, I am back in the game!
Cycling
Arrow position -> Normal position -> Out of the saddle
Starting at like a minute for each position, then getting increasingly faster until we were doing intervals of 2 seconds! Then lots of recovery.
We then did ten second power starts (super high resistance, then peddle hard and fast)
Later that evening I was feeling particularly frustrated with homework, so I went on a walk that turned out to be around 3 miles.
