And considering that last week's weigh in was somewhat of a bust at only 1.2 lbs.
This week's 3.2 lbs. is a significant pick-me-up.
Just enough for me to blow over this holiday weekend!
As if that weren't enough excitement for one day, last night I ran my longest run to date - 3.9 miles with my awesome friend Carrie.
Here's the funny thing - my goal was 3, but when we rounded 2.6, Carrie said, "One more loop would put us at 3.9, you ready to try it?"
I totally wasn't, but she insisted we could slow down if we needed to....
So off we went.
And I felt fine the entire time.
I was expecting our time to slow down alot with that last mile, but we managed to maintain the exact pace I was keeping with my other runs - 10:06. (It helps that we ran our first mile at 9:30! HOLLA!!!)
And my legs feel great today!
This is why running partners are so awesome. I totally would have let myself quit at 3.
One more thing just to get everyone inspired this holiday-eating-weekend....
I officially donned my first pair of size 8 PANTS yesterday.
No-give-pants, too.
They fit!
No wiggling,
No squirming.
No jumping.
No tying-hair-loops-through-the-buttonholes-to-make-them-work necessary. (Don't pretend like you've never done it!)
It's a good feeling.
Tonight's the debut of the size 8 dress!
And I can't wait!
That's right girlie!!!!! I knew last weeks 1.2 was a fluke!! Way to go!!! I don't think I will be having a 3 pound week! Great job friend!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou go girl...strut yourself in that size 8 ;) btw...I never did the hair loop thing but it's good to know...lol
ReplyDeleteCongratulation on the 3.2 and 3.9! I can't run the save my life-literary...If someone were chasing me to kill me I'd probably have a heart attack and die within the first 1/4 mile. I'm pathetic. But, I'm also a former smoker so my lungs have taken a beating. Anyway...that was to much about me- Congrats to you!
