Winter wonderland!

Hey people :) It's finally snowed in Rhode Island which is awesome because we haven't had a proper blizzard for ages.  I'll bring my sleds back to school and somebody should come sledding with me because hopefully it will continue to snow and be a real winter this year!

I've been on vacation for most of break so far; I went skiing and snowboarding in Vermont with family and friends and had a blast.  A few days I went sledding for like four hours and was SO sore the next day.  I built a jump at Roger Williams park and little kids' parents were not happy with me, but my friends and I got some good runs and jumps in without too much pain.  I went to Boston with my family this weekend and saw the Blue Man Group and went to the aquarium, which was fun too.

This particular conditioning was awful. low: i thought i was going to die. high: i didn't die.


Since I started the workouts late and didn't get a chance to do anything this weekend while on vacation,  I'm going to do the running workout (day 4) on Monday and then do days 1-3 Tues-Thurs this week, since rugby camp is next weekend.

Happy New Year!  I'm going to be at Brown almost every day this week working in the lab, so if anyone is there and wants to do workouts, facebook/text/email me! 401.536.4098
Rugby love,
Elena
