Long term goals:

♦ I only drink 1 soda a week, usually on Friday evenings @dinner. So my goal is to not drink anymore soda for the rest of the summer. I know I can do this. I've done it many times before. Not addicted to it, so it will be easy :)

♦ Not have anymore sugary desserts or whathave you until Lake Powell June 28-july 2

♦ Increase my speed in tempo runs mile 2-6 (preps you for a 10k)

♦ 5k race in 20 minutes or less

♦ 10k race in 45 minutes or less

♦ Make pilates happen! Do it 3 times a week Until the end of August

♦ Drink 6-8 glasses of water daily (which I mostly do anyways, I don't drink anything else)

Ran 6.2 dreadmill miles in 45.36. It was at a tempo pace: first mile at a moderate pace, then miles 2-6 a  faster tempo that stays consistent. I wish I could post my splits but my garmin didn't transfer the info correctly and now it's all lost. Oh well. So then I worked on the eliptical for 33 minutes. Abs for 5 minutes. Got over that and went home. I actually did the rubber band today and some lunges at home. More than I expected. But shoot, I am just beat. I realize that sometimes I just do to much and I need to lay off.

Highland dancing tonight and maybe a quick little run outside.

**pm update** ran 2 miles at the gym while waiting for a tanning bed to open up.

We had Magelby's chocolate cake on Friday, then a tres leches pie from cafe rio on Sunday. So I felt like this clip this weekend. LOL. If I don't be careful, that's what I'll turn into.

And then after I ate all that cake and pie I really felt like doing this

I worked on the eliptical for 1 hr 15 min. I was up LATE last night. 11:40. I could hardly get out of bed this morning. I did lift for about 15 min and worked my abs a tiny bit. Personal note: were buyin' a boat WAHOOO

Ran 6 miles this afternoon. There is a guy that I totally want to round house kick to the face in the gym at night. He is totally on roids and is totally stuck on himself. He constantly walks up to the mirror and flexes and stares at himself. It drives me nuts! I think he caught me giving him a dirty look. Meat head

oops forgot to mention I did pilates this morning in a lame attempt to get myself going and feel motivated. It didn't work

Sat evening run. 5.75 on the spanish fields river trail near my home. I love running that path, but at night the bugs are out.  I think I may invest in some shop glasses to protect my eyeballs from the bugs. But what will I put over my mouth to prevent bugs from getting in it?

Splits:  7:21  7:07  7:16  7:33  7:44  5:20
