Just a quick little note: I completed my goals this week!
I did all the workouts on my schedule and brought my lunch to work every day and stretched properly after my runs! I feel good!
This morning was my long run day. I wanted to run 10km/6miles and had been planning on doing that all week. When I woke up today I did not feel like it at all! I just wanted to laze around in bed but I told myself that I wouldn't feel better lazing around for 2 hours so I should just get up and focus on how good I'll feel when the run is complete. Honestly it was a rough go. I ended up doing 10.4km/6.5 miles in little over an hour. I took more walking breaks than I'm proud to admit and several times I thought maybe I should just be light on myself and work harder tomorrow. Then I remembered that I'd written down that I was planning on doing 10km and I didn't want to fall back on that. So I ran.. and then came home and stretched and I feel happy that I did what I said I was going to do.
In terms of the scale.. it's not being great but I'm down to my pre-holiday weight, I look better in the mirror and my clothes are all much looser. I'm not going to worry so much about the scale because I know that muscles are building and things in my body are working themselves out. Now is about committing to workouts and healthy eating day after day after day...
So what are you going to plan to do this upcoming week?
