FINALLY BACK FROM THE BLAHS!
Saturday, January 31st 2009
It seems like it has been forever since I have posted. I dont really even know why. I just got sort of out of sorts and didnt really want to participate in much of anything just getting done what was necessary even though I was still logging (for the most part) and exercising.Today was my first day of the Runners Group at our local Lukes Locker running store. I was pretty nervous to see how I was grouped, etc. It was GREAT! Hubby actually went last week and got my ru...
A little frustrated on the weight front but GREAT run day!

My weight has been really crazy this month and I have no idea why. Those of you that run 3-4 miles 5-6 times a week may be able to give me some insight I am eating back my calories, and maybe this is a mistake I know lotz of people only eat back about ½ of their exercise calories. I may need to try that. Here is how my month has been:Jan 1 - 156.0
Jan 15 151.6
Jan 18 -- 154.4
On a more positive note. My run today was fabulous. I was really surprised how much I enjoye...

Wednesday, January 7th 2009
This may sound silly, but I am not too worried about the 5K...3.11 miles is not that far, and even if I didn't run it, there will be people walking. The group that is handling the run is called RAW (Runners and Walkers).Someone had suggested I go and check out the location ahead of time. I still want to do that, but the days are slipping away.
Love my new Garmin 405 for the outdoor running but I am disappointed that I cannot track my calories burned using it on my treadmill with...
