Its been a while so this might take a while!! :o)
As my first full semester of dental school (13 classes and 28 credits) progressed and got more difficult I had less time to sit down and keep everyone updated on my progress. As Lex told you guys I did a 5K before thanksgiving and RAN the whole thing for the first time ever!! It was great to see the hard work that has gone into all of this training pay off. After the 5 K it got more difficult for me to run outdoors (Michigan cold + asthma = trouble). I started to use my elliptical again and my parent's put me on the family plan at our gym but I wasnt getting to do as much training as I would have liked. Over thanksgiving I also had some health trouble which kept me from training but as a pick me up my Dad got me my very own treadmill for my basement!! It was a wonderful early Christmas present!
After thanksgiving school got even harder; in the last 3 weeks of the semester I had 10 exams, 2 quizzes, 2 practicals, and 11 projects/assignments to get through, so my running and blogging really took a back seat. I did manage to continue to do some cooking, that bonus pasta recipes I posted was predominately featured in my diet! Yumm!! I finished the semester on the 16th and I am very excited about and pleased to announce my 3.97 GPA :o) I had a few days off at home in which I spent going to the gym with my parents ever day and getting caught up on a lot of sleep! Now I am in Alta getting some much needed time in with my other Muffie, my brother in law and my wonderful, handsome, talkative and adorable nephew!! Our brother Greg is also here from the NY/ New Jersey area which is awesome, I dont get to see him nearly as often since he moved in August! Lex updated you on our workouts and cross training in her previous post, all of which has been a lot of fun.
Soon to come... Muffie New Years Resolutions :o)
Happy Holidays everyone from the MUFFIES!!!
Way to go Alena!
