Skipped my 8 mile run today. So tomorrow is going to have to be a double, if I am going to be able to use Friday as my off-day.

8 miles am, 4 miles pm, 60 minutes weights pm.

Yesterday, 8 miles, 1:02:31! 7:49/mile pace. Outside on the lake path.

Today, 3 miles on the treadmill and 40 minutes of biking. Aiming for about 2000 calories.

I am following Hal Higdon's Advanced I training program this time around, but with cross-training on Mondays instead of the short run ( Read more... )

I had such a lovely date last night. Hurray! Presumably still in a daze from the goodnight kiss (haha), I forgot to pack socks in my gym bag for this morning. My poor blistered feet never would have made it, so I am doing the 14 miler tomorrow. This actually works out better, as I will be going to an all-you-can-eat Brazilian steak place that night ( Read more... )

Busy, busy. Up a few pounds, thanks to going out and having fun with friends (and boys!). My size 1s are getting a bit too tight again, which is a sign to eat more cleanly ( Read more... )

I have a lunch date! I need to hit the gym beforehand, so I am already running late ( Read more... )
