I know it's been forever since I've posted. My apologies! Things have been so busy lately that I haven't even opened my computer for a long time now. So here's the skinny on the whole training....
Since I've posted, I've lost another 3-4 pounds but starting mid February, I got tired of everything. I ate a bunch of crap and didn't lose weight. My one blessing is that I've been so active that I haven't gained any, but I haven't been losing either. I've been really struggling. Then today, I got past it! FINALLY!!! I ate great food and went to the gym. I'm feeling more in control and am ready to get the next chunk of weight OFF!
As far as my running, it's going well. My last long run was 7 miles-no stopping. It took me an hour and 44 minutes. It was excrutiatingly long because it was on a treadmill. My head was drenched in sweat and I looked like I'd just gotten out of the shower. It felt good though and I'm proud of myself for doing it. I missed last week's long run because I wasn't feeling well so this Sunday I plan to complete 9 miles. I haven't had to stop yet so I'm curious to see if this is the run that makes me walk some of it. We shall see!
I have 6 weeks till the marathon and it's all becoming very real. I know it's going to be a strenous next few weeks, but I really feel that I will be able to complete the course. I have to stay strong and realize that after Aprill 11th, I can relax and feel a huge sense of accomplishment!
Oh and this is the first time I've admitted my size...but I tried on a size 14 dress today and it was TOO BIG!! Size 12, here I come!!
