Hills

Did 25 minutes of Harlem Hill Repeats last night- kept it all under 80% and under control. Made sure it was a STRENGTH workout- NOT SPEED. Feel really good today, my legs are a bit tired after the 8 miles Sunday, then strength Monday night and a good amount of running yesterday. But it's just sore- no pain in the hip or shins. Good stuff.



Work stinks right now. I guess we all have our issues at work, and I can hardly complain b/c I really do have my 'dream job' at 25. But sometimes I think it makes it harder to deal with bull$hit at work when you are so passionate about your job. I just love what I do, so it is so frustrating when people lose track of the ultimate picture (HIV prevention), and get caught up in stupid details or can't see past their own egos. I've been doing a really good job at not getting caught up in petty drama and email exchanges, but I just fear some of the issues that are brewing could really turn this into an unhealthy environment that is not productive to my professional development. And that is scary b/c I believe so much in what I do and the company I work for. I have been doing a good job just checking it at the door when I leave, need to keep on that way.

And I have another trip to South Africa (and possibley Uganda!) on the horizon in the fall, so that will give me something to look forward to in the meantime.
