Weekly Fitness Tip: GO FOR OVERALL FITNESS!
I think it is so important to remember to have fitness goals and always challenge your body and keep your muscles guessing rather than focusing on goals such as smaller thighs, ripped abs, super-defined calves, etc. Don't get me wrong, those things would be great but when you focus on being strong, having endurance, being flexible, being fast and just overall fit, you will be less prone to injury, be able to do daily activities better and look great. In other words, you will get your personal best body by being overall physically fit.

Weeks 70-71
Weight:121
A fairly good couple of weeks. 2 or 3 days of some major eating days-burger and onion rings and my usual cracker/pb feast.
My two longs runs were at an 8.09 pace and a temple run at 8.40 pace-Gearing up for my half-marathon on the 4th of July. Still doing spartacus/full body circuits and I am up to 8 quarter-mile sprints (hard!!)
Weekly Fitness Tip: JUST KEEP GOING!!
Have you ever been so strict on your eating and so good at working out yet the number on the scale just doesn't budge?? This has happened to me for sure. It is so frustrating; I definitely have shed a few tears looking at that stupid number on the scale. Get your mind out of that mentality and just try to be patient. Keep going, be consistent and give it time....it will happen for you if you are putting the work in. Here's a good article I found.

Another good week; what can I say, I'm near perfect!!! We dined out once and I was so loving it. My workout last week:
Monday-7 mile speed run (treadmill, 48.30 minutes-8.5-10.0 speed, incline 1.0)
Tuesday-Upper body/running circuit (60 minutes); abs
Wednesday-6 mile run outside (8.40 pace) running with prego friend:)
Thursday-Lower body/elliptical circuit; abs
Friday-45 minutes power yoga
Saturday-8 quarter-mile sprints at 10.0, incline 1.0, 2 circuits of Spartacus II
My new obsession: Arctic Zero
Oh how I miss the days of real ice cream......it's been nearly 6 months since I've had sugar. I definitely feel great but really miss those delicious yet dangerous treats! This ice cream is such a yummy treat and you can eat the WHOLE PINT for only 150 calories. It's a dream come true to this sugar-loving but hadn't had it forever gal! I found a lot of flavors at Sunflower market. Yippee!!
