Probably not, but I'm going to become it someday!
Between training others, training myself, being approached for advice, hours upon hours of lecture, anatomy readings, histology readings, mannequin simulations (the coolest thing) and then the fitness reading I do for please, I am well on my way to being the Ultimate Fitness Resource! LOL.
Labour Day weekend I was fortunate enough to visit my boyfriend, Ryan, in Orlando, FLA. He is currently working down there, so we spent Thurs-Mon hitting Disney, Universal, and the Lazy River and Basketball court at the Resort we were at. These weekends always throw me off a bit, and in this case, I almost felt undeserving of sucha great time because I felt I haven't even worked hard enough in school yet to deserve such a treat. Over the weekend we walked a ton, went to the gym, and luckily I was able to stick to a fairly healthy diet by having the hardboiled eggs and oatmeal for breakfast and salads for lunch and dinner (which is about the ONLY thing I eat when I eat at a restaurant. Dressing on the side. The reason? There is less guessing as to what the food is actually comprised of. Your pasta dish you had the last time you dined out was probably 1000+ calories, with a zillion grams of fat and 45925238mg of salt. Just saying, I like to know.).
Upon my return Monday, I went for a late night run since the gym was closed. It was already dark when I went for my run, so I increased the intensity to decrease the amount of time I would have to spend out by running 10 250m hills, and then completing a 6krun afterwards. Came home to prepare for my first full day at CMCC. WHen I say full I mean, same lecture hall, no windows, quick 5 min breaks in between classes from about 8am-5 or 6pm. The week seems like a blur as I sit here writing this! Mixed in with class was a morning workout on Tuesday for myself, 4 boot camps taught (tues and thurs), a run on Wednesday and a day off on Thurs, tonight I plan to run stairs and go for a 10km run.
Traffic and all of the sitting each day motivates me through my exhaustion to get moving. One day of unprepared meals has motivated me to keep fresh, healthy snacks on hand to pack as lunches (dont want to spend the money, or change my eating habits with a school caf!).
My plate of busy-ness, which has always seemed full, now has 3 side dishes and a bread basket on top of appetizers and dessert. I am friggen busy. I am determined to do everything I want to do. A friend of mine said the other day, "Alli, you have a phobia of failure," which was interesting to me and my mom who told me that my Grade 1 teacher had told her "Alli never wants to make a mistake!" This of course was in addition to another comment she made about the fact that in the time it takes other kids to do one drawing, I make 7. So obviuosly, from the very beginning I have always been focused on success, but success in as many ways as possible. At 23, I am no different. I will succeed through these next 4 years of school, I will continue to be successful in my fitness goals, and I will continue to allow people who train with me to be successful in their personal goals with my guidance.
Thanks for reading. I'm not editing this, my eyes hurt from longtmeeeeeeee computer stare. Sorry if the grammar is brutes.
