For fitness, my friends and I chose the jogging group in the community run. We ended up following the wrong crowd and ran further than we were supposed to. Lol. I was very proud because I did not stop jogging :)

Saturday morning run
Today Gaby and I went running at goldstone park. She was using the zombies run app and I used the interval training app. I ran for a minute then walked for 15 seconds. We did that for about 30 minutes and it was very tiring!!

Fitness friday : September 27
On september 27, we did the pyramid exercise. I went all the way down to 0 and at that point I was dying. I found out later on that day that we only had to go down to 5 but was very glad I did not know that because if I wanted to complete the exercise my mind wouldve told me to quit at the 5. I think I was doing very well because I did not cheat on myself and skip anything. It was very helpful having friends that keep the energy positive and fun to workout around. One thing that happened which was funny was that yulia and I were dying after the v sit and couldn't get up so we rolled on to out stomachs and got up from there. I was sooo sore over the weekend but I was so glad because it means that I worked hard and tried my hardest with some of the exercise.
Fitness tuesday : September the 17
On Tuesday, the whole gym period did the pond run. I love this exercise so I came in with a positive energy hoping to pace myself for the whole run. Suprisingly, I did last the whole run and walk. I ran with a friend at my running level and I think we helped eachothers minds to not think of bad things about the run. I also encouraged some gr 8s to try and pace themselves instead of sprinting the first few seconds then just walking. One thing I learned that was interesting and very true was that counting down til when the exercise is like cheating on yourself because you are just wating for the exercise to end and not really care about your progress. Overall, I loved the pond run and hope to do it again soon.
