midwife - the crazies are persistent in toronto! I'm really considering taking some self defense classes. I think it'd make me feel safer.

3.1 TM miles today. I was having some weird leg pain. I got new shoes but they're pretty much the same as my old shoes so I don't think that was the problem. I think it's the outdoor to indoor transition. It was in my upper calf in only one leg.

Ladies, ladies, ladies....I HAVE been running but I've been SO FREAKIN BUSY in the rest of my life I've had ZERO time to get online. I must say though that while I've been running I cut down from 5-6 days a week to 3-4. I did an awesome run on the Delaware river (8miles) last Sunday but it was VERY icy and VERY slippery and my Yak-Traks are STILL not in! So I think I pulled a groin muscle or something on the very upper/inner part of my thigh. So I've been taking it easy. Unfortunately with T.O.M. being here and slacking on the exercise my eating has gone haywire and I'm eating every sugary-carby thing in sight. I feel like I gained 15 lbs. Ugh!!!!!!!!!! Back on track today...

Oh, and I got Leslie Sansone's 5 mile power walk video as well as Jillian Michaels' 30 day shred and I love them both! (and Leslie looks MUCH lighter in this video).

I haven't been able to run since Saturday, I've been in such denial of the growing pain in my right heel, turns out I have a case of plantar fasciitis which is a first for me. I'm hoping to start up again later on this week. Has anyone else dealt with this, if so what helped make it better.

+2 on the elliptical...low miles from that machine, but high reward, and I did both miles faster than I had the last. Kicked my butt.

New total: 27.5

Hey guys, I'm gonna join this as this will give me a greater incentive to get my butt on the treadmill and not just look at it as I walk by. I was doing well last week (started TM again on Monday last previous workout was 12/23/08) but then this weekend I got a bad coughing cold and I haven't been on since thursday... but I think I'll get on again tomorrow as I'm feeling almost back to normal and make a fresh start on my exercise plan.

I'm doing a 12 week walking plan and I hope by the end I will have lost enough weight to start a walk-jog plan, and that means by the end of the year I hope to be fit enough to be running. So my goal right now is for 500miles this year!!!! I've kept track of what I've done so far so I will go make my ticker right now! yay!
