9/24/08 Training

Training still going pretty well, I think I am pretty excited about my trip as I woke up about 4:30am this morning to trying to decide if I was going to get to class earlier to do an easy run. The clock starting ticking and before you know it, it was already 5:15 am when I was heading out the door. Where does the time go? I just knew that I would be at the gym at least by 5am oh well. When I arrived to the gym, I went ahead and set up my bar and step and heading out to the treadmill.

I got on the treadmill about 10 minutes before 5:30 which at least gave me time to warm up right? I set my Nike + to run for at least 2 miles knowing that wouldn't be completely possible without me missing some of the class. I always at least go the mile that I set on the Nike + so I maybe late for the class. My pace on treadmill was an easy run with speeds 6.0 to 6.8 no incline. I finished my two miles and since the class started a couple minutes late I only end up missing the warm up song that's okay.

We had a student teacher for the group power class which worked out great. She taught the first half of the class and was pretty good. She really has great potential on being a great instructor. That is so hard to have to train in front of your peers but you have to start somewhere. Maybe one day I will try to see if I have what it takes to become an instructor. I really do admire the ones that give me motivation to get through the class.

Goal for today is to stay focus on eating plan but eliminating some of bread choices substitute for veggies.
