Today I did the same 4 miles I did on saturday. The temp was 68@6:15am and breezy this morning. Sat weather was 80@8am. I think I like the 68 much better!!!
Anyway, I started off running and I felt pretty good, but I thought it would go away. The second half of my first mile was hard, but not too bad. Then I realized something; running takes alot of stomach muscle! And that is something that I don't have alot of right now because I just had Faith two months ago. I realized it today because I could feel it. Then I could feel myself getting stronger, and That my legs weren't the thing slowing me down, it was my tummy. Once I get it back where i was I will be faster!
My first mile was 13:50, 2nd 13:00, 3rd was 12:30 & 4th 12:00. These are estimates because I can't get to my watch, since I am rocking Faith right now. But you get the gist!!! I was FASTER! Each mile got better and I felt GREAT! I felt like I could have kept going. I love that feeling. It means I am back! I can't wait to get faster but that will come with time!
Another ccomplishment is that I am under 200lbs! I weighed 199 on Saturday! Never again will I EVER weigh 200lbs! I love what I am doing with my life. I love feeling good after I eat and not feeling guilty for what I have eaten. I love the feeling of accomplishment after going on a run! I love being at the finish line with my girls, watching Blake run in and feeling so proud of my wonderful husband and all he has accomplished! I am at a place that I NEVER thought I would be and I LOVE it!!!!
