Feb 21-27

Ok, we hit a bit of a bump over the weekend that has lasted until today.  We are going today, but we have been slackers.  This is what we did last week:

Monday:       3 miles
Tuesday:       1.5 miles
Wednesday:  Rest
Thursday:      3 miles
Friday:          3 miles
Saturday:      Rest

10.5 miles total for the week
Weight in:     +36 

Haha, so I guess we didn't do too bad, but I had a major issue with my new shoes.  I took them back on Saturday, and got a size larger, and a different style with lower arches.  I have very flat feet, and my new shoes were making my knees and ankles really happy, but my feet were very upset.  Haha, anyway, we are going to try to do better this week.  We are also thinking about doing the Rex Lee 5k on March 12. 

Feb 7-13

We have been so good about not eating sugar.  We did take a little dip this week.  We had Hogi Yogi on Wednesday, shakes on Saturday, and some chocolate cake on Sunday.  It was Valentine's week, I blame it on that.  I love running with Greg.  It really pushes me to do better.  My knee was really hurting on Friday and Saturday, so i bought some new running shoes.  I'm hoping that they will do the trick.  It was raining on Monday, so we didn't run that day, but we did ok the rest of the week.  I love that three miles has become so easy.  Yea!  Anyway here is the break-down.

Monday: Raining, we did nothing
Tuesday: 3 miles
Wednesday: 3 miles
Thursday: Rest
Friday: 3 miles, then we went dancing afterward!
Saturday: 4.5 miles

Weigh in: +36!!!!!  I lost almost a pound and a half in one week.  I'm so excited.  I hope I meet my goal, and I hope that the shoes help my knees.  We also bought a knee brace, so I'm really hoping that I will be able to do the half-marathon!!

January 31 - February 6

Greg and I did pretty well this week, and I'm so excited that Greg has been getting off of work early enough to come with me.  We haven't had any chocolate in a week!  Yeah for us!  I was also extrememly proud that I ran three miles without stopping on Saturday (technically, I did walk twice, but it was because there was a snow-covered bridge and stairs that I was worried about and it was only for a few feet.  So I'm not counting that. lol)  Anyway, this is what we did last week. 

Monday: 3 miles
Tuesday: 2 miles
Wednesday: rest
Thursday: rest
Friday: 2 miles
Saturday:  3 miles

Weigh in: +37.4 lbs
