My first Weekend Warrior Challenge!

Wednesday, April 28th 2010

This is a short post cause I seriously need to catch up on the blogs out there…so many bloggers so little time!

My virtual blogging buddy (hence forth known as VBB), Brandon (http://solongfatass.com/) is doing another installment of Weekend Warrior Challenge. I’ve watched quite a few of these events come and go and have decided this is my weekend to get my feet wet (pun intended…keep reading).

The idea behind WWC is to make some clear and definite goals that will be attempted durin...

Whew, I am so happy to have Monday over.

There was no major fallout from yesterday’s change in plans but it can be exhausting to recover. I often have some sort of emotional melt down when not prepared for changes (which I did but it was only for a few minutes), then I spend a few hours wondering why I had that melt down (which is usually followed by some emotional beat down). Once recovered, I spent the rest of the day just moving a little more slower to keep myself in check.

Change / Run / No Gym declaration update

Monday, April 26th 2010

What I really wanted to do was title this post “Let’s get to know Tara” because what I’m about to write is probably going to be mundane and too much information (but not in a gross kind of way). If you’d like to bypass the first portion of this post and get to Sunday’s run please do so now.

I'm speechless this morning.



I just crossed over the 40 pound mark!

A -3.2 loss this week brings the total to -41.1

I feel like I should write something profound, but honestly I'm just going to let this picture and the numbers sink in and then head to Seattle for my workshop.

The numbers:

Week 0 = 263.5 (-0.0)
Week 1 = 257.4 (-6.1)
Week 2 = 255.0 (-2.4)
Week 3 = 254.6 (-.4)
Week 4 = 253.8 (-.8) *I started c25k
Week 5 = 248.2 (-5.6)
Week 6 = 247.2 (-1.0...

A declaration / Week in review (pre OWiS #17) / shopping

Friday, April 23rd 2010

I've pushed myself to the brink. I knew it when I tried to run this morning. I probably should have taken the run outside but as I'm trying to work on staying at a constant speed I took it to the treadmill. During the first interval of week 4 of podrunners it got real ugly in my head.

Real ugly.

Nothing I was doing looked right. I'm sure I looked the same as always but for some reason it was just a super gnarly girl up there looking like she didn't belong. I made myself run at least 1...
