Fountain Hopping!

TODAY ROCKED!

I got my Running Streak on this afternoon! I knew I would want to sleep in this morning and that I had a bunch of work to get a head start on before I headed to my 1 o'clock class so I knew I wouldn't have time or feel up to a run this morning. So I promptly texted two of my friends and asked them to join me for a 1-miler on the bear trail (plus walking the rest) this afternoon after I got out of class! Hooray for accountability! I knew that if I didn't tell them I was going that I'd probably ditch it, since it is just so dang hot outside in the afternoons! Anyways...we ran 1 mile of the 2.3ish long Bear Trail on campus and walked the rest. Here's our adventure:

It was in the 90's when we ran/walked the Bear Trail so we were all sweaty and HOT afterwards! Baylor just happens to have a bunch of fountains on campus....so I decided to cross an item off of my Baylor Bucket List and go Fountain Hopping (aka take pictures in all the fountains on Baylor's campus). It was so fun. Plus it was a great cool off after running! Check it out!

super sad that the construction crews on campus
had the fountain by the BSB off!
This would have been the  most epic picture y'all.
Promise I'll get a real one with it on before the year is up!

My friends are awesome! They like to be spontaneous like me!

My last day of minimester is tomorrow! I've learned so much from this class!! Wish me luck on my presentation! I'm presenting on healthy living for college students.

Headed off to bead! Night all.

Running Streak!

Well I am officially back in Waco! Just got finished with today's class (YES! only 2 to go and I'll be done with mini-mester) A million little things got added to my to-do list today, in order to finish out this class strong. I have to finish up a bunch of my projects to turn them all in on Thursday! phew! I've got a busy night ahead of me...

So...besides my to-do list for class, I've added a "to-do" to my Summer To-Do List (which I've yet to post about yet):

join in on the Summer Running Streak

read about it here!
 

One of the fitness blogs I follow has consistently been posting and reposting about this "streak" and I last minute decided to do it today! So, yes, I technically started one day late but to make up for it I ran an extra mile today. Total I ran 3.54 miles...with occasional breathers. BOY WAS IT HOT TODAY! (upper 80's) Excuse all the sweatiness but here I am after today's run!

It felt awesome to get back outside and run again! When I run, it's usually every other day so that my muscles can recover so I'm a little nervous that this "streak" is EVERY day, but I think if I take it easy and not push myself too hard that it will be okay.

also, I don't have a twitter, so I won't be able to follow everyone else who is doing the streak, but I do have an instagram and I plan on documenting every mile with that and of course I'll tag it with #rwrunstreak. Find me on instagram and follow me! @amy_kate

Here's to accountability and staying in shape!
