I've been slacking on my running, mainly due to being a little apprehensive about running the actual runs, and wanting to make sure my legs are ready. I attempted my first 6 mile run last Sunday, I made it 3.9 miles running, then walked the rest, but I felt good doing it. I'm excited about tomorrows 5k, my strategy is to finish in the same or better time than my last one. Hopefully that's doable.
I've been steadily losing weight, down 31lbs officially as of yesterday, so that's GREAT news. Gotta stay focused, as happy as I am about where I have gotten to, I'm nowhere near the final goal. Thinking about it though, I'm nearly halfway there, so that's good news too! I know the last 30 or so will come off much more slowly and with more resistance than the first 30, luckily those last 30 will be fighting against the increased activity that is known as spring and summer. As the weather warms there are more group rides to go on, and the family decides to come out of the cave and ride on the weekend, all of which adds up to more monthly miles for me, so that's great news for my weight loss and overall fitness!
Clothes are starting to fit very well again, and I'm not like "Urggggggg" when I look in the mirror, more like "well, gettin there" which is a step in the correct direction. Oh, and in the next two months I NEED to start swimming. This will require a membership to some indoor facility with a hole in the ground which is filled with water. Gotta get on that if I want to have any chance at even finishing the swim! :)
Well, TGIF! Here is to a good and activity filled weekend!
