Tonight I almost didn't go because of the rain, but did and it felt so good. I didn't get as hot, therefore, I felt better. And I have my power songs that seriously help a ton! I've noticed that I run faster to some songs more than others. And thanks to a recommendation from Ash, tonight I listened to Paramore and ran faster than I ever have before. They are great! It kinda made it fun. You know how sometimes when you're listening to a song in a store or something and you kind of walk to the beat? Well, I ran to the beat. I know that sounds lame, but it helps to get your mind off of how tired you are.
Anyhow, my goals are to run a marathon next year (a FULL one), fit into my old pants and capris (not that old either, only like from last year), look good in a swimming suit this summer, and of course to get in shape! As of tonight I've lost 3 pounds. I know that's not a ton and your body flucuates anyway but I've also lost 4% body fat!! Woo hoo! And I can totally see a difference in my butt (still working on the love handles). It looks good, you should check it out next time you see me. :)
I'm excited that I'm finally seeing some results! I just hope I can keep it up!

I cant wait to check that ass out! :)
ReplyDeleteI have been listenung to Paramore every time I run for almost two years now! They are the best running music. Thats awesome that you are getting into shape, I run almost 2 1/2 miles a day too...wait did I say run? I mean walk/jog, but atleast its somethin...gotta work off this baby bump. Good luck!
sorry about the typos...holding squirming June.
ReplyDeleteI love your jogging shoes! You should do the Clinton 5k with me in July. :) I am just starting to run but it gets me something to work towards. Oh and I will be calling you for a sitter if I need one...It is about time I have a break!
ReplyDelete:( I'm so very jealous of you. I know I know I should just get out and do it but Fred's been waking up 3 sometimes 4 times a night and by morning I'm to tired to get up. I should go to bed earlier but that's mine and Josh time. So I guess I'll just continue to get fatter and fatter while you get thinner and thinner.Maybe one day we can do a marathon together, that'd be awesome!
ReplyDeleteOh and perks to Deb on the Paramore she's the one who introduced me to um.
Really? I'd never even heard of them until Ash said they were coming with No Doubt. Now I wish I would've gone. They are awesome, Dick likes them too- he loves when rockers can actually sing instead of yell. And that girl can sing. Something about the beat of the songs- man, I looked down and I was flying!
ReplyDeleteJac- I'm in for the 5K. That'd be fun! (And I was serious about babysitting! The next 3 weekends are bad for me, but you call me anytime after that.)
Ash, my kids went through sleepless phases too. Freddie will grow out of it and then you can go in the morning while the kids are still snoozing and Josh is getting ready for work. Perfect! :)
