Good run

It sure has been hot here in La Mesa! Today we went to the gym rather than walking outside. I ran 3 miles on the treadmill and then walked another 2 at varying degrees of incline. So that was a really good day at the gym.

Doing Stuff

I have been pushing myself pretty hard here and it's time for a break! I ran the lake on Saturday, and then walked it yesterday. Today I did a local 3 mile run (my Fitnatics route!) and, as I was doing it, I thought, "Why am I doing this, I need a break!" So that will happen. Imposed, though. Getting up early for a push tomorrow so I won't have any running spice anyway. Probably will go for a bit of a walk, though. More of a mosey than a health walk. That's my plan!

9th Annual Fitnatics 5K

We ran the 9th annual Fitnatics 5K on Friday, August 18, 2017.  Most of us were in St. Croix Falls, WI but Julie ran it from La Mesa, CA.  We all did great!

Good run for a sicko!

I cannot remember if I told you that I've been sick. It's a huge bummer but I'm beyond glad I got this after Harry Potter World! I'm not sure if I picked it up there or if I caught what Bart's mom has. But, regardless of origin, I am on the upswing! And I went to the lake today and had a really good run and then a walk. Ran about 4.33 miles (OK, not about - I know that's how far I went!) then walked the rest of the way. It was HOT! I think I need some new sunscreen. What I have now just doesn't seem to have the power I need. Looking forward to my Fitnatics 5k and I am sure you are too! And all your other festivities. Bart is in Vegas this weekend so we are thinking he will do his 5k when he gets back and submit himself to the team for consideration as a finisher!

Run / Walk

We had a really great run and walk today out at the lake. Thank goodness it wasn't too hot, it has been hot but cooled down. Anyway, that's my report!

Still At It

Been running every morning except Monday since we got home and doing ok.  Finally have run 2 full miles without walking the last two mornings so feeling better about that.  Not sure I can do a full 3 on Friday for the 5K but will walk when I have to.  Anyway, starting to make some progress again.

Many things!

I've been a slacker poster but not a slacker exerciser! I've been walking a lot, running, and lifting weights. So things are going well. Doing well with my eating, too, even though it's hard (as you know) when I'm not just doing my own food thing. Going out to dinner with Bart's mom tonight but I've pre-checked them menu and have a game plan. So should be ok! Diet is still going really well, although I was hungrier than usual today. I'll be over my "losing weight" calorie limit today but not over my maintenance limit. And I'm totally fine with that. Overall, the fact that I'm eating every 2-3 hours has kept me from going crazy and way over eating in the evening. Feeling lots better!

Every Morning

I've been out for a run every morning but still not doing a full 3 miles.  Working at it though.  Trying to get ready for the 9th annual Fitnatics run in a week or so.  Will do my best!

A Fresh Start

Now that we are home and plan to be for a while I am turning over a new leaf!  Went for a walk/run this morning and did some pushups and situps.  Plan to do it every day and increase the run and decrease the walk so I can do that 5K in 2 weeks!  Perfect morning for it and felt good to finally be back at it.

Now I'm behind here!

Glad you are happy with the new diet and food regimen!  And you are keeping active in SD so that's good, too.  What lake are you talking about walking around?  You're in La Mesa, right?

I ran here this morning but did some walking, too.  Just can't seem to be consistent any more.  Always something interfering with my morning routine.  I am going to try and run every morning until we leave next Monday so will see how it goes.

Have fun at Harry Potter World tomorrow!

Super hot!

I am not sure how far I ran today but I do know that I ran till I thought "I'm so overheated, I might throw up!" At which point I stopped running and walked home! And it was only 88 so not SUPER hot. But too hot for what I was doing, I guess. Tomorrow should be a big walking day at Harry Potter World! Super excited about that. Going in tonight to spend the night so we can be at the gates first thing. Going to be really fun.
