I decided to move ahead and take a rest day today. I felt like I wanted it. So I guess i'll simply do my schedule as written this week--five miles at race pace tomorrow, 10 miles clean on Friday, and rest Saturday, and race on Sunday. I just hope i am rested enough for the race. The race is in the afternoon, and that i in no way run in the afternoon! It have to be thrilling.
these days became my Wednesday Weigh-In. i used to be satisfied after I noticed the size:
134--so i'm down one pound this week. i am now just one pound far from my purpose weight!! those last few pounds have come off very slowly. In November, I handiest misplaced three.five kilos. but the closing 4-5 kilos have made a international of distinction in my garments. I tried on all of my clothes the day past--each single item in my closet--and bumped off the stuff that I don't like or doesn't fit.
I have been preserving onto multiple shirts that i was hoping to wear at goal, however they are nevertheless too small, so i am getting rid of these. I hesitate to cast off the denims which are too massive, because I preserve thinking, "What if I gain the usual 15 pounds over the summer season yet again?" however I think that keeping them will nearly deliver me permission to benefit, so i'm ditching them.
Like I hold pronouncing, i've a protection plan this time round, so i will maintain my weight in my upkeep range (preferably at the low stop, however my panic weight is 137). i am additionally going to paintings tough to plot for the summer time, and the emotional eating that usually ends in weight benefit. besides, one extra pound--with a bit of luck next week will be the week!
So multiple days ago, i discovered phrases with buddies on my iPhone. I recognize, i'm approximately years overdue to this birthday party, but I think it is top notch! i've constantly hated Scrabble--not handiest am I horrible at it, however it's so boring to sit down and wait for all time to your opponent to give you a phrase.
words with pals is an app it truly is essentially Scrabble you can play together with your buddies. The component i like is that you just play your word whenever you have got a second, after which come lower back to it later after your opponent has performed a word. So theoretically, the video games ought to pass on for days, anybody simply playing a word once they have a second.
i am not even a bit bit joking after I say that i'm terrible at the game. i have most effective played with Jerry and John thus far, and i am too embarrassed to even play with every person else ;) I don't mind dropping, but it's now not fun for other human beings to play with someone that is as horrific as i'm at that sport!
| The app even reminds me constantly that all of my opponents have beat me |
it's type of ironic, because English and writing had been constantly my first-class topics in school. My grammar and spelling are both quite decent, and i really like to write. you will assume i might be good at those games! Oh properly, at the least it's amusing :)
this night i am assembly up with my buddy Stacie at Tim Horton's. i haven't visible her since we ran a 10K collectively in April. on every occasion we see each different, we are saying, "allow's get together subsequent week--we can't wait any other yr again!" and then necessarily, we do not get together for months. i'm excited to trap up with her!
i've been going totally stir-crazy for 3 days now. Our minivan nevertheless isn't always running, so Jerry has had to take the Jeep to work--all day lengthy. i have never left the residence in 3 days, apart from to go for a run. There are things we need from the shop, so I suppose i can make a past due run to Kroger once I see Stacie.
