Thursday (8/9): Today I ran, because I didn't run on Wednesday. It was simple 13 m R, 5m W. I set off, ran to the elementary school in the neighborhood,which has a quarter mile track, and ran my little heart out. Managed to get a 1/2 mile in on the track and then back out to the road. Can't think off the top of my head what the distance was total, but I know that I ran at a 12:14 pace!!!! Getting better at running this mile thing.
When I got home from work, dear hubby wanted to go to the mall, reason unknown, but I will take it! I have damn near run out of my current kicks, so I bought some new running shoes and then hubby thought I needed some new socks to go with them! I LOVE THESE SHOES. Haven't run in them yet, only because my current watch/timer/cal count/pace/mile doesn't work in my New Balance shoes...its a Nike thing with a chip in the shoe. So I am currently looking at getting a new GPS watch. But here our my shoes and socks.
Friday (8/10): Also a run day. We have finally hit the mostly running part of this program, so it makes it a little harder. But I am going to keep going. Today was 15m R, 5m W. This run hit a milestone for me...my pace was 11:54. Finally under 12 mins!! Also, I can tell that I am getting better, because when 9 mins used to be a struggle to get to, now I am starting to die around 13 mins. I can only get better.
Saturday (8/11): Today started early with a trip to an auction house, nothing good, then to Bed, Bath, and Beyond, Best Buy, Barnes & noble, & finally Lakeshore. And back home by 11:15! Then we sat on our behinds all day, until we tried to get dinner at Red Lobster and Texas Roadhouse, only to stop at Popeyes! Lame!
Sunday (8/12): Normal house keeping day. Cleaned Marge, man she is looking good now! Since the Olympic's end today, sad :o(, we are watching everything we can!! I will miss the games, but now I can get back to regularly schedule programs!!
