If you’ve hung out on the blog since last year, you’ll know I normally do this thing called “No Fun February”. For the past three years, I have completed my own monthly health and money challenge during February (yes, the shortest month of the year). The concept evolved from a no-spend month one of my best friends, Jesse, did back in college. The objectives of No Fun Feb are to eat healthier, cut back on alcohol, not go out as much and save some money. But this year I decided not to partake and this is why. (TBH, it should be obvious).

Happy March! No Fun February is officially over! I’m ready for the fun to resume. But before I really start this post, I need to be totally honest…I did not do the best I could during No Fun Feb. But I’m not about to beat myself up about it. Here’s my recap:

So lately I have been trying out a bunch of work out classes because I recently discovered something awesome about most of them: first class is free! I know so many gyms are allowing people to try them out totally for free, so my mindset is: why not?! I would like to try out as many as I can, but for now I have done a class (or more) at Orange Theory, Pure Barre, Title Boxing and CorePower Yoga. And while 3 of these were awesome…there was one I just wasn’t a fan of.

So I’m posting this a little late but I’ve been training for a half-marathon for the past few weeks. I started around the 10 week mark and have been trying to increase my distances a little every week, while also doing other work outs. I’m around 8 weeks out now and can run around 5 miles no problem, but I would like to get up to 10 miles before my race, which is on April 27th. I ran the same half-marathon last April and finished with a time of 2 hrs and 38 minutes. My goal this year is to get under 2 hrs and 30 minutes, so here is my current training schedule.
