The journey from fat to fit. Road trip, woo hoo!

weight: 153.6. seriously.

breakfast: 1/2 a banana, 1 high protein granola bar post-run and lots of water

exercise: ran 3.5 miles and made pretty good time of 42:35. First mile time was 11:33 which was great since 1/2 of it was uphill. Last mile time was 12 minutes, which is a testament to how bad my endurance is, considering it was 1/w mile downhill. The 2.5 miles on the track (1/2 mile uphill to get there, 1/2 mile downhill to get home 10 laps on the track) was all done at a steady 3 minutes per lap with maybe a 15 second deviation here and there.

The good news is, my body feels good. No aches, no pains, no knee creaks etc. The bad news is my breathing was labored and I feel sluggish while running, so I need to get back into a good routine and get my endurance back up. I am on track for an October 1/2 marathon, though I’m not devoted to the idea just yet.

I’m still on my “stay-cation” with my grownup daughter and grandbaby visiting, so I won’t be posting much, but I wanted to get my run logged in. Eventually I am going to go through old posts and update my 1000 miles ticker. Wherein eventually = I am so probably never going to do that, but it sounds like a good idea.

Also, I did a 1/4 mile cool down walk, not counted in my time but I want to add it on here so I will remember to include it in my 1000 miles ticker!

xoxo, chickies!
