One million and one....point five

Yesterday: Ran 7 miles
Yesterday: Ran hills
Yesterday: Ate super healthy all day
Today: Ran 7 miles
Today: I WEIGH 1.5 POUNDS MORE THEN I DID YESTERDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously. Tantrum. I had to get that out.

OK, be the bigger person, Julie. It isn't about numbers. What? Are you a slave to fashion? Are you a slave to the societal perception of beauty? Isn't this all about your health??

NO! It isn't all about my health! I want to weigh 130 pounds, dang it!!!

Whew. Another tantrum.

So, irritating. But I ran today. Another long one. And it felt better then Monday! I'm getting stronger, little by little. It was slow though!

Perfect day for running - and I almost didn't go (wonder how much I would have weighed then!!). It sure looked like rain. So I brought a baggie for my iPod, just in case, and hit the road. And it was a great run. Nice and cool but I did not get wet.

Speaking of iPods, my replacement is in! I just have to pick it up. I'll probably wait for Friday so I can fiddle with the Nike+ calibration on Saturday.

I've only got 365.2 miles left on my goal!

You've done 35 miles already? No doubt you'll make the goal at this pace. Glad you're getting a new iPod. Wish we could do that for Josh but I know it won't be covered. I am, however, waiting until the Apple warranty (which mentions water damage specifically) is off and the WalMart warranty (which doesn't) kicks in and will then send it in to them and see what happens.

Weight is a total mystery to me. I'll never understand how it works. But here's something I do know: you DO look good!

I'm getting a cold I think. Had a very sore throat last night but that's gone this morning and it's moving into my head I think. But I did the full run on the TM this morning and the exercises. Didn't think I would get through it but I did.

Have a good day.

Well, thanks! I don't know - stupid scale!

Good idea to wait for the Walmart warranty. Sure hope that works.

How are you feeling tonight - or this morning, I should say! Better I hope. Running is no fun in the rain or with a head cold!

XO!
