Week 34

Weight: 123.6

My diet was clean this week (of course I always eat too much at least 1 day on the weekend). I really wanted candy corn and chocolate and licorice this week, but alas, I resisted. I have happened on some good sites for naturally sweetened baked goods and one of my favorite sites for calculating calories, especially for dining out.

My workouts this week:
Monday-9 mile run
Tuesday-Spartacus
Wednesday-5 mile run
Thursday-Power Yoga
Friday-6 mile run
Saturday-3 mile speed run (22 minutes)

Week 32-33

Last Post's Weight: 126.5
This Week's Weight: 124.5

So it's been busy and I've been slacking on posts. I've still been working out 5-6 days a week. I am training for a half-marathon with my friend. We have done a bunch of 5 mile runs and 2 8 mile runs-it's been great! Twice a week we are doing either power yoga or Spartacus. My diet is clean except for a day here or there on the weekends. Brady and I are doing our no-sugar thing until Halloween-man do I love sugar!!!

My new kicks! I have been running with the new Nike Free's for about a month. I love them!! The first 2-3 runs were a little hard to get used to; my ankles and feet ached a little and it felt like I was running barefoot (as intended!) But now I am really liking my form and I truly feel lighter on my feet and a tad faster. After some getting used to, these are my favorite shoes yet.

Week 31

Last week's weight: 126.5
This week's weight: 127

So my diet was very clean except on Sunday when I ate thousands of cookies, dang it!! My workout was exactly the same as last week. I am excited to start up Spartacus again. I will be training for a half marathon in October so I will be picking up my running.
