Hello Incredibles!!
Sorry I have been MIA, but we took DD to sleepaway camp yesterday and trying to get her off and settled was taking up a bit of time. DH and I are enjoying some adult time. Tonight we went to a really big car show, took the dog with us. It was nice walking around looking at over 100 old cars to see how well maintained they are. DH is restoring a 89 Camaro, so he likes to look at the cars and see whats what. Tomorrow we are going to the drive in to see Despicable Me (DD saw it at a b-day party). Again, taking the dog with us. He is enjoying all the extra attention!!
I ran 10 miles on Saturday, could not keep a consistent pace at all. I averaged 10:38, which is fine, but it was rough going faster then slower, then faster again. Sunday was 5 miles, did it in 48 minutes and change. Again, good pace.
Food has been a struggle, we ate out yesterday after dropping DD off at camp. According to the Wii, I gained 4 lbs from yesterday Obviously that cannot be right, but I am guessing the sodium is making me retain water. Oh well we shall see what tomorrow brings after I run. Humidity is back again for a bit, so it should be just ducky out there!
Its hard to believe that in 3 1/2 weeks we will be in California for the DL half!! I am so excited and looking forward to setting a new PR. My coach is pacing me, and we are definately shooting for 2:15, maybe faster if all the stars align (I feel good, weather is good etc). Then I take a week off before jumping right back into the training for the half marathon on 10/10 here at home.
Megan, god bless you doing all those miles on the dreadmill. I can't stand to be on it for 8 minutes, much less 8 miles! But great job getting it done!
Amy, enjoy your iPad. We thought about getting one for DD but she is much happier with a netbook.
Lauren, sorry to hear about all your troubles, but on the weight loss!!
Kathy, you continue to do a great job, you are making good progress. Keep up the good work and YOU will rock the Princess!!
Beth-nice pace there!! I wish I could get that quick! I can manage about 9:30 if I am really cooking. I figure that once I am at goal weight, those times will be reachable for me.
All right ladies, time for me to fly. Have to get my care package ready to send to DD at camp-jelly bracelets, a magazine and a card. We can't send food or money, so we try to come up with fun stuff she can share with the other girls if she wants.
Keep on runnin' girls!!!
