Good training this morning! I did my run/walk for 8 miles and ran every 3 min(1/20th of a mile each time) for at least 30 sec. which if I did my math right (please don't ask me to prove it!) means I actually ran 2 miles! And most of it felt good. I forgot to take my alieve this morning (a mistake I won't be repeating!!) so into the second mile my left hip really started hurting, but then somewhere in the third mile, I realized that it didn't hurt so much any more. I know I am going to have more days like Monday when it doesn't feel good and I have to force myself to do it, but if I can have more days like today, it will be worth it. Oh, then I walked another mile and a half to cool my muscles down, and came home to stretch and shower. I was soaking wet. I got on the scale, don't ask me why, and I was one pound less than when I got up today. I know, I know, it is probably just water from sweating, but just let me enjoy the thought! Oh, just remembered, as I realized at one point it was time to run, I looked up at a monster hill in front of me, I looked down at my pedometer and saw, 6.66. Okay, I am not really superstitious, but it did spook me a bit. Like was I going to fall and break something? lol. But I did okay and ran my full time. Just thought that was funny.

oh Marah, that IS spooky..lol............however, you have really done great today GOOD for you...what is alieve by the way?
I would have used the 666 as an excuse to bail. I really admire you for your training. You deserve to enjoy that one pound loss no matter what caused it.
Alieve is an anti inflamitory. Good for arthritis. Walked a couple tonight after teaching LOGOS and going to my daughter\'s soccer game. 11.31 for the day. This evening\'s walk felt really good. I wish I had had more time. Oh well. Hoping for a good tomorrow.
Hey every pound down counts. So dont short change yourself by calling it water weight. keep up the good work. HUGS-LEXX
