1st 5K: Color Vibe

So I have started on my running journey. I have set a few goals for myself, running goals, in my 101 in 1001 days. For example, one of them was participate in a Color Run. Well that one can be checked off my list. This past weekend I attended my FIRST and LAST (probably) Color Vibe run. 

It was an experience. It was all fun up until the race started. My friend Brittany went with me and I was so excited. I thought we would both have a fun time..we did at first. We loved throwing all the powder on us and looking colorful. But then when it was time to run we were seriously regretting it. Not because we were going to have to run but because we were sweating and this color powder was so itcy and disgusting! We ended up not running the entire thing because we felt so disgusting and I wasn't planning on running the whole thing, I knew neither Britt or myself was at that running level. So we finished the run in 41:24 with a pace of 13:34. Our time wasn't too terribly awful.

Brittany and I decided that this will probably be the last Color Run we do. If we do ever do another one we are going to our car before the race starts and wiping at least the color off of our faces. I am glad we did it and I can now check that off my bucket list!

21 Day Arm Challenge

Shout out to my girl Nadine for introducing me to this arm workout! Somewhere around 21 days ago Nadine guest posted on A Little Glitter with some fitness tips. Want to know what I love about Nadine and her fitness posts? I love that she isn't a fitness coach, she isn't some hardcore spends 10 hours at the gym type person and sometimes she HATES working out. I can relate to her 100%! Her posts I find some helpful because I am in the same boat as her and I can relate a lot better to her than I can to a crazed fitness coach. 

Well on Friday July 17th I started this 21 Day Arm Challenge. And completed it on August 6th. 

LEFT ARM: July 17th

LEFT ARM: AUGUST 6th

RIGHT ARM: July 17th

RIGHT ARM: August 6th

Overall I have really enjoyed doing the 21 day arm challenge and plan to do another round! I am not sure if it is the way I am standing but in the August 6th pictures my arms definitely look more toned than the July 17th. I can't tell too much of a difference in person but when I compared these pictures I was a little surprised. I will check back in when I complete my second round of the 21 Day Arm Challenge!
