I did my first run today: 1.5 miles in 22 minutes. That approx. 14 min 30 sec miles. Not exactly breaking any landspeed records there. But totally better than my average of 17.5 minute miles when I ran my 5K back in December. So that’s actually an improvement. Scary, huh!
I created a marathon training blog a while back but hadn’t really done anything with it. I’ve picked it back up again and that’s where I’ll blog the day to day nitty gritty of marathon training specifically.

Happy Sunday everyone!

I am having the BEST salad for lunch. Bibb and butter lettuce, grape tomatoes, red onions, diced grilled chicken breast, fat-free cheddar cheese, avocado, fresh corn cut off the cob, Walden Farms ranch dressing (0 carbs and 0 calories!), just a drizzle of bbq sauce, garlic powder and black pepper sprinkled on. It’s southwesty and awesome. In fact, I’ve eaten about half and I don’t know if I can finish it!! The secret is I bought a bunch of chicken breast strips, grilled them on the ol’ George Forman and keep them in a tupperware container in the fridge. The salad took me all of 5 minutes to assemble. Quick, easy, uber healthy. Why did it take me so long to get back in the groove when the groove is so simple once I’m here?! I honestly can not figure myself out!!

Sounds like you’ve got your GROOVE back!
Thanks for the suggestions on busy work for today. The cabin in Florida is a work in progress. We go down when we can and do what we can in the time we have. The upstairs is pretty much finished but the downstairs is still pretty primitive. Last time we were there, a couple of weeks ago, I decided it would be a lot more comfortable if I got some used furniture for the downstairs until I’m ready to actually furnish it. With that in mind, I called a couple of ads for used sleeper sofas and tables and I’ve made arrangements to go look at them today. In anticipation of buying stuff, I’m rearranging furniture so I can keep the stuff I get in the family room until the next time we go to Florida. That should get me through the day.
The salad sounds awesome! I don’t know if we have that salad dressing though…I’ve never seen it but then, I’ve never looked for it either.
Good job on the running!
