Well, I didn’t run the whole thing (obviously from my time) but I did complete in less than 45 minutes yesterday — 44 actually — or roughly, since I didn’t use a stop watch. Now I just have to concentrate on improving my time.
The good news? My muscle aches have subsided some! I think this [...]
I feel silly. I was already in bed but my mind started racing, convincing myself that I had to come back downstairs to type this blog post before I could lull myself to sleep.
Yesterday I ached a little. After Monday’s 45 minute jog/run, I felt pretty good, but yesterday my muscles reminded me that they [...]
This was the goal I mentioned in yesterday’s post: I want to be able to run a 5K distance in 45 minutes or less by two months from today.
I plan on using the indoor running track at our local YMCA three days per week on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I have arranged to drop off [...]
A few months ago you may remember me mentioning a couple of friends that were training for a 5K. It was so motivating for me that I dusted off the treadmill in the basement and tried gradually increasing the number of jogging minutes in a 30 minute interval. While I had gotten that number up [...]

As some of you that read regularly might already know, I’ve always had an easier time with the half of my mission regarding “eating less” and a more difficult time with the “exercising more” part of my plan.

I need to keep this one short, so that I can keep the promise to myself to get to bed early tonight, but wanted to report that this morning I weighed 200, for a large 3-lb loss from last week at the same time. All seven of the previous days food journal were good for [...]
I’m two months in a row for meeting my monthly goals! At the end of March, I said I wanted to lose five pounds in April. I knew that with two family birthdays (including mine) and Easter chocolate temptations, it would be difficult to lose much more than that. Well, in April I lost six!
The [...]
I’m still at 204 today, so I’m happy with that. I actually had a small bout with stomach flu this past week and had gotten down to 202. While that was nice to see on the scale, I knew it would be short-lived. However, I did make it through a surprise birthday party my husband [...]
