I attempted
W6D2 today but didn't finish.
I got outside, broke a sweat and got my heart rate up. Therefore, it was still a good day. Everything was very wet and a drizzling rain fell. The crossing guard commented that I was hard core for running out in the rain. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy. I’m becoming the annoying fit girl who runs in insane weather
.
Also this morning the scale came down to
184.8, my lowest number yet.
Sometimes when I string several days of consecutive running together, I see a decent drop without ideal eating. I don’t burn many calories but think the running loosens up fat or sparks the metabolism or something. I don’t know, I’ll definitely take it.
Meeel4121 – Congrats on W7D2!! I always play tricks on myself like that too. I run outside though. I tell myself that once I turn the last corner and can see my “finish line” I’ll be able to tough out the rest. If I feel dead early in a run I tell myself that if I hold on a little longer I’ll get a second wind. If a refreshing breeze hits me or a really fit looking person walks by, I say it’s God telling me to keep going . Stuff like that. It works a lot of the time.
Geauxgirl – those days when it is SO hard to drag yourself outside and you manage to have a good run are the absolute best!!! Great Job!! My experience with exercise funks is if I drag myself out a few times and push though, they go away on their own. For me they don’t tend to last that long. Good Luck.
Aka8941 – WOW you’re hardcore. The 20 min run absolutely kicked my @ss when I first tried it. Great Job!
