| | Weight another .5 gone, total loss 16.5 But what I really want is to organize a long run on the pipeline trail on saturday!! I say we take it out 6,7,8 or even 9 miles my husband is willing to ride his bike and carry supplies, ie water bottles and gu for everyone and provide support. What a beautiful place for a long run, you tend to go slower, shade, and nature. I'm planning on it. Anybody wanna come? Leslie, chicks, maurine, kim, jody, paula, ANYBODY!! |

| | 5 easy warm miles on the treadmill reading Twilight again. I'm addicted and am dying for the new book to come out. It took just over an hour to do the five miles and they felt good. I am recovering and hopefully get 40+ miles this week. I need some longer runs, I am lacking in that part for my marathon. |

"The things you used to think of as mistakes are now just learning experiences, so don't waste time beating yourself up. You'll encounter small failures — everyone does. But you'll achieve success, too." Jillian Michaels from biggest loser. I made a mistake yesterday. We were running out of time before the circus(which really wasn't a circus at all-no animals, no trapeze, no highwire) anyways I split some fries with my husband and ate a honeybutter scone. UGH! I was up half the night wanting to puke my guts out. I am really starting to learn that unhealthful foods make me ill. I have given up a lot things I used to love because they make my stomach sick. I just hadn't figured it out with the fries yet. 4.3 miles in the afternoon on treadmill, unsure on time because the kids kept resetting it for me but at least I knew my distance. 11.25 mile bike ride with some major head wind a lot of the way (remember the high wind storm warnings we had-oh yeah baby!) Wow, I pulled the kids in the trailer for extra resistance for a harder workout, it took me over an hour but it was still killer with that wind. We also so a truck who blew a tire and started a bunch of fires along 201 freeway, it got really big very fast. Then we saw all the fire trucks come flying by but by the time we made it back they had it out. Hurray for the fire department!

| | Yeah, I finally got up in the morning time, morning time, got to go running in the morning time! It felt soooo slow to start was wondering what that bike ride did to me last night. But I was doing better the second mile but slowed for the third, there was a lot of water on the sidewalks and I didn't want wet feet. But on the bright side lots of water meant not a lot of duck poo! Mile for was good and 5 was fast almost 5k pace. Then nice slow woggle for the last half home.....now I am debating what am I going to read today, new moon, or Mary Higgins Clark newest? |

I'm doing my workout this evening, 10 mile bike 3-4 run, for practice for the triathlon on the 9th. I made it out for my ride/run tonight. 10.2 mile bike in 49:30 and 3 mile run in 32:35, it felt surpisingly good without too much jello from the bike ride. I started out immediately under the 12 min pace and just kept picking it up finishing my last mile in under 10 minutes and I feel GREAT!! I might even be able to pull off a 5k pr even at the end of the tri next weekend, wouldn't that be nice? But I just wanted to blog this. Weight loss: -18 lbs. which I know is good but whenever I diet this is the range I can always get to, but once I lose 4+ pounds then I am in new territory. |

400 m swim this morning this morning just making sure I can still swim and breathe and cover the distance I need. I will get more miles in later today, nice and slow. Weight: -20 lbs!!! Oh yeah baby! That now constitutes my 10% loss. The scale is telling me I've lost 6%body fat, not too shabby either. Now I just got to keep this up :) 3 miles pushing the kids in the heat yuck, but I got it done baby! |
