Well, today was my first day back for ...well an embarrassing amount of time.  Since I decided today that I'm doing a marathon in June, I was excited to go to the gym and start my training. And things went well, I forgot my water bottle- which made me ticked. But it was okay.  It took me about 29 Minutes to run the first 3.  The first 1 1/2 mile I did at an 8.30 pace and a 9:30 pace on the last 1 1/2.  Then I walked for another mile for a total of four .

I slept in big time today- which isn't a big surprise if you know me. ha ha I just love sleep.  Anyway, I only had 15 minutes at the gym but i figure 15 min is better than 0 min.  I did the eliptical because my legs are hating me today.  So sore.  But it's a good sore.  Can't wait for that marathon in June!

This was similar to my Monday work out. I'm just trying to get back into the groove and my legs are pissed at me.

Nothing. Zip. Zilch. Nada.  My legs have been real sore. I kind of jumped into this running bid-ness, and I named today a rest day. I think I will pull a muscle if I didn't take today off.  I'll prob do elliptical tomorrow morning for 40 minutes, and then run 4 on Saturday.

This run felt pretty good. I kept my pace constant at 8:40 for the first 3.1 and then I slowed down for the last half mile.  Considering I just picked up running on monday, I'm feeling really good about my progress.

Just Resting Resting Resting. How do I make it so my blog shows all of my month activity? Rather than cutting it off week by week?

This one was rough.  I ran in the afternoon because I've been loving sleeping in still. Anyway, I had eaten vegatables and dip about and hour and half before.  i didn't think it would really affect me because hey, it's veggies... they're so good for you. Well they were like a bomb in my stomach the whole time.  I had to keep stepping off the treadmill like every half mile so that my stomach wouldn't explode.  That's why I just love running in the morning when my stomach is pretty much empty.  Lesson learned. I died.

I did 3 in 26, then the next mile took 9 minutes and then I slowly did the last half.

Today's run felt really good.  I ran 4 in 33 minutes and lifted for 5 seconds after because I had to hurry home and shower.  This is honestly the first time since I started back up that I have not wanted to kill myself during the run.  I went to the gym before work, which I know is part of it.   I always feel better during the workouts when they are first thing in the morning.  I also had a really yummy dinner last night full of pasta and chocolate milk.  So many carbs but I don't care.  It was so good and husb cooked.  So i think all that food helped with the energy.  Today helped me remember that I actually like to run:)

Yikes, longest I have run so far this year.  It took me 53. Not my best time ever, but I was really happy that I was able to do it and feel good about it!

When will I ever learn my lesson to just wake up and go to the gym in the morning instead of after work?  Not only is it harder after work, but the gym is packed! PACKED.  I had to hunt for a parking spot and then wait for a  machine.

Last night I stubbed my pinky toe. It was bad. Anyway I was sure my toenail was going to fall off while I was running. ha ha but alas, toenails still intact!  It was a good run.  I'm just bothered because I feel like the running should be getting easier by now and it's not! Maybe it never gets easier... jk.  I know I'm doing better everyday.  Some days just take more will power than others.

Today felt pretty good. I'm thinking next week I'll have to run outside.  The treadmill just gets a little tedious after 7 miles.  I did 6 in 51 and then slowed down doing 7 in an hour.   I was feeling really glad about my run, came home and made a protein drink from powder.  About an hour later I was feeling yucky and up came the protein shake a long with a little bit of chocolate milk I drank.  It was disgusting. I don't know why it made me sick.  I think maybe because it was the only thing I had eaten all day and it was like 1.  So I cant ever drink that stupid powder again, I'll have to find a better way to fill up on all my protein.
