Woke up this morning and it was again 32 degrees! I was going to run outside as I don’t like to drive to the gym just to run unless it is precipitating horribly outside. So, I made some fantabulous oats for breakfast and got right to work: 40 grams of oats, 1 medium banana [...] Just a quick buzz by – John did a PR for this 5K race (hills and all) 26:24!! He rocks! Done by a person with asthma, too. I’m so proud! Going out for a bike ride now because his time makes me feel like a lazy butt Catch you later…. [...] So, I was feeling okay this morning and we decided to go ahead and do the race. I made the mistake of checking the temperature before leaving the house. 15 degrees!! Oh my gosh was it cold!!

I felt great at the start, so I knew I would do well. Checked my time at the first mile marker and was [...] Today was race day! Jogged the entire 5K. Came in near the end of the pack, but that’s all right – not the very last anyway. My sister and I ran together. 1st 5K for both of us! Before race: During: End: [...] Well, I have been checking the scale each day, and I think I might be going into a plateau. My weight at the beginning of July was 148.8 and today it is 148. I do believe there will be some inches lost, so maybe this won’t be a true plateau like I had a [...] Today I did a virtual 5K – where a bunch of us (100) all ran a 5K on our own this weekend. My sister joined me – and here we are in the final couple of laps around the track: DH had walked down to the bakery down the street and had cranberry orange [...] |
