oh what a weekend!

oh man! i totally ate whatever i wanted & lots of it this weekend!!! i'm sorry i wasn't motivating but i indulged...probably gained what i lost last week...oh well! i feel so bloated after an indulging weekend but i'll be back on track! it's amazing how much better i feel watching what i eat & sticking to a good routine each day!

about the running...i run slow...so 7 miles takes me over an hour...probably 1 1/2 hours or so...on tuesdays/thursdays james takes the kids to school & my sister in law & i jog together with our babies in the stroller...we only do 4 miles on those days which takes about 45 minutes. on saturdays we've started doing our long runs early in the morning without the kids...just us...i'm hoping we can add a mile each week & maybe by the time a marathon rolls around we'll be ready? wishful thinking? i think it'd be so fun to do the san diego marathon! the time goes by so quickly because we talk the entire time. for years i could never talk while i ran but when i moved to cleveland & ran with friends there i started being able to chat while running...it's so much better! i have to run longer because i run slow & i won't lose any weight doing short runs! if i try running sprints during running i am so out of breath & then it's not as fun for me so why bother if it's not enjoyable you know? anyway...that's my story on running! don't be too impressed because really all of you could run faster than me...i can just run slow for a very long time!:)

have a great week!

Sounds about like mine. I thought about it today out of morbid curiosity. I think I ate 3000 calories on Saturday. But back to business this week, right? Gotta prep for Thanksgiving! You should totally run a Marathon. What an amazing accomplishment that would be!
