Oh the mock 5K, how you tried my every muscle, my every minute of the run. I look forward to redoing this!!! The weather sucked but I did it! My muscles got tense and rock hard but I finished! I have to say it was really hard for me. I didn't have the positive feeling that I sense Trisha had! :) I blogged about it on my other blog. And I can't sugar coat it, I am a hurting unit! My knee cap hurts on my right leg, the tops of my feet are sore, like the bones are sore. It doesn't seem like I have been doing the C25K program, I feel like I just ran for the very first time. And while I ran I felt so tense which made it hard to jog! I did it in 45 minutes...yes, I boned it.
But I have a plan...I now know what NOT to do before the race! I am pretty sure the winds won't be so bad. (I got stuck in a dirt storm yesterday!) I know that I won't be eating a breakfast before, but just some toast and a banana. I know that I will stretch a heck of a lot more!!!
I did an endurance workout at lunchtime today...I wrote about it (with a pic!) It felt good! And I did this 3 mile walk in 45 minutes!! HELLO, can anyway say "kick in gear Stephanie"? This walk is 2 huge hills!!!!
I am not feeling good about myself the last few days. I think it is time to do measurements and see where I am with those. Cause the scale...well the scale just isn't helping me! It said I was up .4 lb. But it is TOM but I just don't want to use that as an excuse. I am going to buckle down this week and see what happens. I feel like a broken record...saying I am going to do this two pound loss thing but it never happens.
BUT...I am wearing a pair of jeans I couldn't wear a month ago! :)
Last week: 184.6
This week: 185
Gain of: .4
The Challenge...
Welcome to our blog! We are a bio-mom (Stephanie) and step-mom (Trisha) who have put our differences aside and are going to join forces and lose the weight we have been struggling with for some time. We have a competitive streak between us, and we are going to turn it around to positive energy and benefit ourselves and our family.
We will be having fun weekly challenges to help keep us motivated as well as weekly weigh ins. The weigh in will be by percentage. (Loss divided by weight before loss = percentage)
We will blog about our experiences, our losses and our gains.
