Time for a run or two..

So I haven't posted something in a while. I've been busy. Since my last post I ran a small 6km run called the "Frauen Fun Run" Ladies fun run .. managed to finish in a bit over 33 min, which I was proud of :) These ladies also always give out fantastic goodie bags, which are of course half the fun :D

Here are a couple of photos:

I wasn't too excited about running the race tbh because no one came with me and I thought I'd be a total loner. Turns out I was wrong. The race was fantastic over 2,000 women running & nordic walking through Viennas Prater. Before the run there was a great warm-up session hosted by the Big Smile Club. It was fantastic, I couldn't stop laughing but I joined in and loved every second of it :)

I also took part in a Hip Hop Pole fusion class which was great, something new also enjoyable sadly it was only a one time two hour course. I have however also signed up to Pole Dancing LVL IV ! EEEEEK I start next thursday ..

My cousins came to visit me as well. Of course we went to Parndorf one of Austrias shopping outlets and I bought a bunch of stuff at Nike.. naturally. 

Both E and I got matching rain jackets for running outside just because it was reduced from €80.- to €20.- and it's pink... who doesn't love pink? It sure as hell pimps my fitness wardrobe, which consists of mostly black, some grey and if you're lucky a couple of coloured shirts given to me by E.

Today I went for a fast 6,55km run wearing my new rain jacket I LOVED it! :) It drizzled a bit, but I didn't get wet waheeeey ! Successful buy? I think so :)

Here are a couple of photos of this fantastic pink jacket:

It has a great pocket in back, which I didn't use but could've stuffed with tissues or a hat ? 

The closest nike has to offer to the jacket online is this I guess..

My goal for the month is to get to my next milestone on nike.com, which is only 54 km away ;) 

Wish me luck! 

Midweek Wednesday

So this week started out great, I had my usual Monday night boxing session with the usual 20 minutes of jump rope. At the end of the class my trainer complemented me on looking like a professional I was so happy ! 

Today I went to the gym in the morning and completed my once a week run! The second I got on the treadmill my shins started burning, this probably has something to do with the mega long running warm up I had on Monday as everyone was late -.- anyway the longer I ran the less painful it felt so I managed to keep on going for quite a while and completed a run of 11km in 1:01:11 or something ! This is what my Nike app says on the treadmill I did 10,5km at the end and burned 750 calories whereas on the app I only burned 640... I don't know which one to trust but either way I'm happy with my results!

 

My shirt was soaked after the run, which I've come to appreciate as it shows that you've really gotten something done :)

(Yes I did just post a photo of my sweaty shirt :p) time to get motivated !

Happy goal keeping!
