49 Minutes, 8 laps (3.36 miles), walked the steep hills. My right knee wasn't very happy so I slowed it down. 76 degrees outside with a nice headwind.I really enjoyed the run this morning and I was not straining to finish it, like I normally am. Probably because of the speed (or lack thereof
).~
I just HAVE to say that running in the morning is really starting to grow on me. I love it, love it, love it. 14.58 minute mile will not break any speed records, but I am walking ...

Woohoo. My scale came in today. It had me at 280.3 when I got home from work. Sounds pretty good to me. I will weigh myself right before we go to the gym tomorrow and then weigh myself at the gym as soon as we get there so that I can get the correct variance. I shouldn't lose any weight in 15 minutes. LOL.It's been a busy day and still lots to do. Gettin' to it!

Got bunches and oodles and tons of stuff done today.

Hurt my right knee (which is weaker than my left, anyway). F__k! I thought I'd try to run when I got home thinking the smoother surface would be okay. Not!
I'm very upset.
New rule to add to the collection: Don't run in the park in the dark on uneven surfaces.
We go to orientation at the kiddo...

Rest days are fantastic. It felt good to sleep until 6AM and cuddle with prince charming until 6:30.
My body was very fatigued yesterday. But it made the bed feel oh-so-wonderful.
And, it was clean sheet day. Woohoo.I'm going to run in that park, that I just found out about, tomorrow. I am looking forward to it. Maybe 90 minutes tomorrow morning? Now THAT would be awesome. Then, training with my group for the marathon starts next Saturday. I think I'll be ready....
