OK so this photo isn't me. I am not that trim and my stride is no where near that long, but I am still running. I have managed to only do two runs per week for the last two weeks instead of the 3-4 I want to do. I started my 12 week program over before the holidays at a faster pace and trying to push myself to move beyond a snail's pace. Some days I feel like I am doing better, and others like today I don't feel like I am improving at all. Today I decided to walk on my street and run repeats on the hill that I dread so much. The hill was brutal and it was freezing so 3 hills is all I got in. Doesn't sound like much, but my heart and lungs were convinced otherwise. I am also really trying to pay attention to the fuel that enters my body, again have not lost one red pound. I am trying to keep my mind focused and see if I can make more progress. I still have bigger things I want to do, I just have to stay committed and focused. I admit it is hard in this dreary winter time, but I know every year June rolls around and I realize all the time I wasted. Hopefully this year I will change my life the way I intend to instead of letting my mind win the battle. I am strong! I can do this! I am also wanting to check into Crossfit or the YMCA as alternatives.
