Day 148 - Week 21

This isn't a way in, but I had what I think is the first victory I have had in a LONG time. I ran again today (second time this week), and I ran 3.2 miles, just over a 5k. I did it in 37 Minutes. Which is about what I wanted to be at race day. I wasn't even running the whole way, just speed walking and jogging. The CT Race in the Park 5k is May 8th, so...if I keep running every other day for the next two weeks at a similar pace, I should be fine for race day. :)

I also found this awesome website. www.run2r.com! The music may be cheesy for your standard listening, but...it's made for running. You can purchase it with a certain BPM (tempo) in mind. So, I had that going and I think it worked wonders. It kept me a a consistent pace the whole way. 156 BPM was my pace. Anyhow...check it out

Week 18 (I think) Weigh-In Results

I have been fluctuating between 215-220 for a while now. Got two runs in this week. Was hoping to run yesterday and today, but I've been on kid duty, so...I unless I'm running with a three and one year old, that's not going to happen. I've been realizing a lot of things about how tied my eating/ exorcise habits are to how I feel about myself and let's just say I haven't felt very good about myself lately. I see this whole project as a big failure. My shoulder hurts constantly. Life in general just seems like one big "have to" right now. I don't enjoy eating right, I don't enjoy running, I don't enjoy school. Let's just say, there isn't much I enjoy right now.

With that being said, I have forgone the 5K a the end of April in favor a 5K May 8th. I am still planning on the Half at the end of June, but unless I really pick up my training from here, I may be walking that Half, or hurting myself. I don't know.

Sorry for being a let down everyone! :(
