Morning Run: Ye Olde Weigh In Style.

Quick post before work.  Weighed in, went running with Lillie and everyones favorite puppy Harlie. And now getting ready for work.  Weigh didnt progress as well as I liked and I suspect because of my cold I've been exercising less and not eating the healthiest of things this past weekend because I used the cold as an excuse, but I'm feeling better -  like I'll be back to my old self soon. And oddly enough I miss the gym. 

I have like a 8 week gym streak on foursquare, cant screw that up #prenewyearsresolutions #winning

Now on to the weekend... but before that...work.

Top of Ye Olde Morning To Ya!

So at the request of Lillie, who's text went something like: R u ever coming back to my side of town to run again?

I got up drove to the loop and went running. 

Running for me and probably Lillie as well, goes something like this:
1.  5 mins of walking (love),
2.  10 mins of run/walking (don't love but okay),
3.  7 mins of run/walking (loathe)
4.  final 3 mins of run/walking (hate).

Generally I chant some song along the lines of running = stupid + other adjectives that suit me at the time.  All per couch to 5k plan, but i don't think they add suggested emotions like me, just sayin'. 

Anyhoos I was happy/surprised to learn that our route was about 1.5 miles. So that was pretty cool.  I can moonwalk a mile and a half on a bike, but I'm hoping to be able to maybe run that by the 5K at the beginning of March.  Yea, signing up for a 5K, sometimes I don't know who I am anymore.  But at this exact moment, whoever I'm pretending to be is going to sleep.

Ye Olde C25K & Weigh In

So I woke up, went to HQ to find Lillie sick and not wanting to workout so I drove back home to the park by my house.  Its actually super pretty and pretty empty, so I love this park!

 Anyhoos, things I've learned this morning:

wet shoes suck.
avoid puddles.
t-shirts do sway votes, lol.  Unfortunately Ellen Cohen doesnt need your vote anymore, elections already happened.
And God doesnt want me to run. See path below

I need to call the COH or something.  So the weight in, which I did before I ran.  I've been in this area before, so I'll get excited when I hit 235, havent been there in a while and I'll think I'm actually making progress.

So yea a little progress, but a long way to go.  Ok off to work now.
