Last week, same story, super busy at work and super busy running around at home.I did a good/better job logging my food this past week. I was able to stay within the CK nutrient recommendations probably about 70% of the week. My only down fall was having too large of a serving of a sweet treat each night. It was not a binge but just larger than I planned. I need to really focus on eating slower so I dont feel like I need to have another serving. Overall on food I am feeling good a...

This past weekend I went camping with 9, 10 year olds. Whew, I am still tired. The weekend was very hot and humid and yes most of the girls (and adults) were whiney the entire weekend. I was a parent volunteer, not the leader, but ended up having to take more of a leader role long story. I lost a weekend to get caught up with home chores.Last week was crazy busy at work and then each night I had to run around getting ready for the camping trip and finding a dress for my daughter...

Life has just been too crazy busy. Work is insane. I have a crazy workload AND I have a very nasty client that is really messing with my mind.

Even the chocolate wafer thing I got...Monday, April 23rd 2012

I kept having to tell myself to slow down and enjoy the run.Honestly the past 2 weeks I have not been great about logging my food. The stress of th...

2:23:19 was my time yesterday, Pace: 10:56 min/Mile. The goal was 2:20. Race day weather was warm, humid and windy. Even though I did not hit the goal time I am pretty happy with how I ran the race espically with the weather conditions. PRing by 6 minutes almost is not too shabby!!My previous best time doing this same half marathon was in 2010, I did it in 2:29:16.
The Rock in Roll half marathon I did last fall time was 2:29:25.
I felt pretty good the entire run. The firs...
