As it could probably be inferred, I didn't go running yesterday. I was still in desperate need of sleep from last week/the weekend, and yesterday after a three hour nap and going to bed before ten, I was well rested for an adventure to the gym. I even dragged Care along, and convinced her to make a work out plan with me :) This makes me tremendously excited, as it is so much easier to go with someone.
While at Fike, I experienced my first ever tornado warning! At first it wasn't so intense, but then about half a mile into my run, they made us move to the bottom level of the gym. I wasn't able to find an open treadmill, as everyone was now coming downstairs, so instead I hopped on an elliptical. I was able to watch part of the Celtics game until they told us it was safe to leave the gym "at our own risk." Care and I adventured out, to find pouring rain, lightning and thunder on our drive back to Calhoun. As our luck would have it, there were no close parking spaces, requiring us to run through the pouring rain back to the apartment. I can't remember the last time I was so soaking wet, especially from rain that intense.
I know that elliptical miles don't equal running miles, but it still felt good to get back into the gym, especially after a whole week off. Tomorrow brings a psychology exam, another trip to the gym, and our very first GammaFits meeting!
