16 minute mile!!!
Today on my walk I decided to try jogging as much as I could instead of just walking. My previous record for a mile was 21 minutes, so I shaved a whole 5 minutes off my time. I'm so proud of myself. I've been working out a lot, so this just is the icing on the cake. It felt so good to jog. Soon I want to start running. They are having a "Color Run" 5k in February where they throw colored cornstarch at you at every stop so by the end of the race you are covered in colors. They give you a white tee shirt and a pair of sunglasses to protect your eyes. I'm looking for someone in my area I could carpool with. That, or make it so I'm able to drive myself by then. I want to practice driving in my car. it is my car, after all. The only thing I'm worried about is driving Geo insane.
I want to try and get my license when I go see my mom for Thanksgiving. She lets me drive her car and I'm decent with it. I think if I had just a bit more practice I could do it on my own. I know I would have to pay a lot more in car insurance, but that's something I'm willing to do.
I'm making banana bread right now and it smells so good! I can't wait until it comes out of the oven so I can eat it. I have enough room in my calories today to have a piece. I gained 0.2 pounds today, which doesn't worry me at all. It's just water weight. I'm just glad I'm still in the 220's and not back into the 230's. Things are just going good!
