216.25. Yeah. Only a .25 loss BUT I am very happy that I have mainly maintained this weight. When I got to this weight last summer it did not last long....maybe 2-3 weeks. The other thing I am happy about is that I had a very busy week at work and home so I did not do a great job a logging. Usually I have to log faithfully to drop some weight. I am hoping this shows that eating healthier and in less quantities is becoming more natural for me.Now this week I plan to log faithfully a...

Had my last 3 hour run yesterday and it felt great. I felt great the entire time and was able to run at the fast end of my easy long run pace. My running has been going great. My legs have been getting stronger and my natural pace is faster. I don't feel like I am shuffling as much. BUT I have to ask you a question. I should feel great about this right?

I am going to try this again this week and see if I still get the same results.last week I met with my running coach to learn about strength training for runners. I think it was the best $50.00 I have spent on running. I learned a lot and I got a lot of running drills to better help my stri...

Running workouts have been going great. This morning was 5 x 1 mile at my half training pace. Felt great all 5 sets.This Friday I am cheating on my personal trainer and doing a workout with my running coach. He wants to show me some specific running strength training exercises I can do on my own. I am a little nervous. He is a track coach for a University. We communicate through emails so this should be interesting.
There is a little stress at home right now. My husbands job j...
