3.1 miles was a little rough at times today. At one point my legs felt sooo heavy. Ugh. I finished in 35:08 though so I am content. I had eaten too much last night and I seriously think that makes running harder. I used to think that the extra calories would be good. I am thinking that is probably not the case. And, I need to make sure that I am getting enough water because the whole dry mouth thing is a nuisance.
The eating…I did ok the day of the wedding. Had to eat steak which I do NOT like, but that is what was served at the reception. I didn’t have cake. I was going to but I tasted some off of hubby’s plate first and it just would not have been worth it. However, on Sunday I made mom a cake because her birthday is later this week. Made pineapple upside down cake, which is one of the few types of cake that I actually like (really, really, REALLY LIKE!). And I did have some [too much] of that cake. Then I did some snacking after dinner on Sunday for no apparent reason at all other than that I was just glad to be back home. So I am not weighing for a few days. There is no point because there will be no measurable progress.
I am thinking about winter already, wondering what I am going to think of running outside when it is like 40 degrees. Anybody? Is it harder to breath? I just really don’t want to slack off on my running in the winter.
Breakfast and lunch: the norm. Fruit of the day: nectarines. Dinner will be greek burgers with feta aioli. hopefully we can get them to stay together better this time.
