Realized this morning that running in the rain isn’t so bad, but its more difficult where there is still snow and ice on the sidewalks. Got up at 6:30, did Yoga for Runners, and then looked outside and it was only a drizzle. Of course by the time I got dressed and got the dog [...]

Another bad Monday night – drank most of a bottle of wine, binged on ice cream and candy, purged. Surprisingly today I don’t feel too bad, I think because I drank a lot of water before bed, and it wsn’t an entire bottle. Weight this morning was 140.0lbs; did not work out. Planning some yoga [...]

Feeling rather blah and down today, not really sure why. The weekend was long and busy – we hosted a gaming party – had 8 people stay over Friday night and 6 on Saturday. I spent most of the day Saturday cooking and cleaning up. It was a lot of fun. But it was a [...]

Forgot to record my weight yesterday, but it was the same as today: 136.8lbs. Did the yoga/run combo again this morning (I think I love it): did most of Morning Flow #1 20 minutes followed by running 3.54 miles in 30 minutes. The yoga was good – since it is a morning flow it has [...]

I had a great run this morning! Did my “long winter loop” at my fastest pace so far: 3.76 miles in 30 minutes. 392 calories, average speed was 7.3 mph! I could not believe it, I just had lots of energy so I kept the pace up. I did go to bed at a decent [...]

What a week! I am embarrassed to say it was not a good week for me health/fitness wise. Started off Monday with a rather nice run, but then my foot swelled up and a visit to the doctor left me on the couch most of Monday and Tuesday. Of course that didn’t stop my appetite, [...]

TGIF! This week has flown by, mostly due to the drama over my swollen foot. I haven’t run much this week, but have been taking advantage of the elliptical and doing more yoga. I know a lot of people love, love, LOVE elliptical machines, but I just am not a huge fan. Some elliptical machines [...]
