First day of the challenges

Today Caitlin and I started our challenges. We did the top level for sit-ups and squats, and we decided to do the second level for push-ups (but doing the push-ups on our knees). We decided we would go through the challenge once doing the push-ups on our knees, then in six weeks do it again with the push-ups in the proper position. Hopefully by that point I will have more upper body strength which will help me do the correct position.

I'm pretty tired from today's work-out. Sadly this is the day I'm on campus from 6:30am to 9pm. Bleh. I can't wait to go home today. On a happy note, seminar is canceled today, so I can work on my kinetics and catalysis paper. On a sad note, I'm grading my students' presentations today. The other lab group went way past their time schedule, so I imagine my group will do the same.

There was talk of going for a run in the morning. To be honest I just want to sleep for days. I'm so tired. I didn't sleep well this weekend. Tonight wasn't too bad, but 6am came pretty quick. We'll see what happens. Maybe I'll run tomorrow. Or maybe I'll sleep. My sinuses have really started to bother me, and I really don't want to get sick. I may use that excuse to sleep in, then run in the evening. That could be nice. Or maybe because the boss is away, I'll run in the morning then have a wonderful nap before going to work. That sounds pretty fantastic as well. I'll let you know.

Have a great week!

P.S. Good Luck Boston Marathoners!!!!!!!!
