300 melt down!

I just finished my first time doing the 300 melt down challenge! When I say finished, I mean I completed the different tasks, but it totally kicked my butt! I had to take a couple minutes to catch my breath and re-gain some strength every so often. I also broke up some of the exercises into a couple smaller sets, than one big set. Still, I did complete it in 17:00 using a 20 pound kettelbell, but I feel like I can't hardly move! The 300 melt down challenge is no easy task, and consists of V-ups, snatches, push-ups, swings, burpees, clean & press, and mountain climbers. From doing the burpees and the mountain climbers, my knuckles are raw...OUCH! Hopefully I'll be able to move tomorrow! If you try it out let me know what you think of it!

Over and out!
Lo!

A little better...

Well, this past week I ran a 5k, and felt pretty good, however I still have quite a ways to go in less than a month. The race is May 2nd, and approaching very quickly! Thankfully I received my foot levelers which, I haven't been wearing too much, but so far I'm already feeling a little bit better. I'm hoping this continues as I continue to wear them more often. I also received my kinesio tape in the mail this week as well, which will help as well, especially when I'm actually racing. This week I believe I'll start ultrasound therapy, although I think I'll only get in 2 treatments before I head home, but I'll take what I can get! Well, that's all for now!

Over and out!
Lo!
