29-30 Nov 2014

No need to post two weights, I was the same each day.  I ate pretty well…no sweets.  A little extra cheese (which I had to get out of the refrigerator) and a lack of regular mealtime might not be my strong suits.  My biggest priority is fixing my sweets habit, so I’m happy with the little change!

I like AWESOME!

I’ve also joined the Runner’s World Running Streak challenge.  The goal is to run (at least) a mile each day from Thanksgiving to the new year.  I began yesterday, so got two miles in to make up for missing Friday.  I’m not actually RUNNING the whole mile (yet), as I’ve been training on an interval since I started back running a few months ago.  Just a month ago I was comfortable covering five miles.  A bad-back for a couple of weeks left me doing little for exercise, and covering two miles feels crazily difficult.

Saturday:  10 min warm up.  Measured 1 @11:02, Measured 2 @10:50, half mile walk

Sunday:  Mile walk, Measured 1 @ 10:58, Measured 2 @ 10:52, Walk the rest, Total distance 6.8 miles @12:06 average pace.

I must admit, I’m really, really sore today!  My left hip is a little tight/pinchy, and my quads feel like I’ve run 20 miles.  In as much as I’m not happy my legs are weak, the memory of running 20+ miles is a sweet one!

Sweeter than any sugar I may be missing!
