Been about 2 weeks since I have blogged and my life has been a F4!!!
I have an assignment at work that has required me to travel several days a week for 6 weeks....I'm half way through the assignment and I'm looking forward to it being over!!! It's hard to maintain a good workout schedule and make good food choices when your away from home. I could so easily go to bed early with some Bon bons and watch uninterrupted tv!
But I don't.....
Rewind to last weekend.....
I ran my first official 5k race!
It was fun and I did pretty good. I don't know that I'll ever say anything I did was great bc ...there's always something more I could have done. I did the race in 42 minutes....I think my placement was 111 out of 150 or 160 racers.
Today I am going to run another one. I'd love to reduce my time....at least 1 or 2 minutes. It's going to be raining today.....I don't know how much it will slow me down....but I bet it will reduce the # of runners.....which will hopefully not push me to the back of the times!!!!
I just don't want to be last!!!!!
Yesterday I ran almost a full mile without stopping! I'll keep working at it. I can't wai to see what I can do in a year. At the track I'm making quarter mile laps at about 3 minutes at a steady jog/ run pace.
My weight loss now is 45 pounds....for some reason it's slowed down....I'm sure work schedule is to blame....but a pound is a pound and I'll take it!
