March 30, 2011 - another workout update/Misc
Hi Everyone,
After work last night, I trecked myself to the gym at 5pm but noticed the parking lot full so what I decided to do is drive over to my alumni college and drop off the dinner check to my former professor at the front desk. Got to talking to a few people over there. I tried to see the old libararian but she was at a meeting so I talked to the front desk girl. she was studying her accounting. she has the same teacher I had - asked her if she started her 3 day final yet. she said it was starting monday. Yep! Accounting I exam was 3 full days. LOL!! No...I am not registered for their BBA program - its not what I want. Unless they decided to expand their programs I am not returning. I even walked around the campus, its built around a circle. No idea why it was built that way - good for those alzheimer's patients. LOL!! Apparently, the campus is now too small because enrollment is sky high. they are actually using conference rooms to conduct classes. The college didn't even think about the BBA program. No wonder they cannot expand on their degree programs. Not good planning. Saw my class of 2007 group pic on the wall along with all my graduate classmates. Anyways, next Wednesday I am going to a Admin Assist professional dinner with the students and professor. Should be interesting. I am also going to her class on tuesday to talk about what I do at Kaleida. A little nervous because Im not sure how many people will be there to listen to me speak. I have to talk 30-40 minutes. EEK. where is Mr Mattimore (my oral presentation teacher) when I need him. Boo Hoo!
Dad - his incision has been bubbling up with fluid. Of course he is doing too much as usual. Now they have to reinsert the drain again. sounds like with him not having any lymph nodes in his armpit, this might happen often. I think hes getting alittle depressed.
Aunt Judy - No news. I do hope she makes it to Easter. The 2 week mark is almost up.
Im suppose to go to my cousins wedding in Witchita Kansas at the end of June but $$ is an issue (I can afford the plane ticket but not both the ticket and 4 nights hotel and everything else). I think my brother might have some frequent flyer miles for me that he cannot use. Nice to have a family member who travels for work. He might be gone a lot but its always a bonus. I have to call him by the weekend to check on this. i'd be flying into Denver and driving with my sister and brother to kansas, it takes 8 hrs from there. Will see what happens.
Back to the exercise - See I got sidetracked with my general updates.
I got to the gym late - around 7:15pm. Hate to workout that late but once in a while it has to be done. If the gym wasn't so damn crowded at 5:30. Oh well. I just had time for the treadmill only, skipped the eliptical. I set the treadmill to 3.3 and did the grade of 1.5 (just as bri said). It was alittle harder but not too much. for about a minute. I then increased it to 5.2 to run a minute. Then walked for 2 at 3.3. I didn't count how many times I ran to walk but when i hit the 1 mile mark, I was in the middle of running my minute so I finished the run/walk 1.15 miles. Thats ok. Best to be ahead of myself. I think next week we will be increasing our running and decreasing our walking. Just gonna follow the schedule. Overall, it was a good run on the treadmill - pushed myself by increasing the run speed to 5.2. Noticed it on my t-shirt, I had a sweat ring on my collar. I must be getting alittle stronger - thats good. 1.5 grade was relatively good. I did stay on the treadmill for the rest of the 30 minutes (walked after the mile interval training is done) but didn't get on the eliptical. I'll go back to my regular 20 minute eliptical on Saturday morning. I need to do this before I meetup with my friend Jen - she will be moving on saturday (I hope to god she is packed up!). More on that later. I'll have to update you on that Sunday.
Tomorrow is another group run. Its suppose to rain/snow tomorrow. great! Hope it goes fast.
Biggest Winner competition is Monday and we are all registered. Me, Todd, Mary and Lori are on one team. Cross your fingers. If I can get ahold of our weight losses, I will post them here. Counting on Todds high #'s. Guys lose faster than us ladies....LOL!!
Back to work. More later.
