The cat made me do it...

This cat is damn lucky she's so cute.  After listening to her meow all evening, I, naturally, turned to the red wine.  A bottle later, she was much more tolerable!  I'm going to assume that she cried for most of the night.  Thankfully,  my wine induced sleep prevented me from hearing her.  

It's only night 3.....it's only night 3......

With most everything in the world, there is always an upside to things.  The super-cute-annoying-kitten-meow is at least helping me get my butt out of bed in the morning and hit the treadmill!  I'm not exactly sure how far or long I went today.  I do recall the miles being over 3.5 and the time being somewhere in the low 30s when my headphone cord pulled the safety out of the treadmill.  I took that as sign to end the run.  It was a good run, but I am mighty sore.  I'm glad that I could start back at this now and get my muscles working again before marathon training commences in January!! 



I'm going keep track of my miles to see how many I put in between surgery and the marathon.  

Today's Miles: 3.5
Monday's Miles: 3

Total accumulated: 6.5

enough IS enough.

  I can think of many 'e' words that are relevant to my commit to be fit theme for this A-Z Challenge: energy, exertion, educate, excel...the list could go on and on. I finally settled on the word 'enough'.   Christmas of 2010 I was at the lowest weight I had ever been.  I remember being very happy and very, very hungry.  I was over-exercising and under-eating.  The weight didn't stay off because it wasn't a lifestyle that I could keep up with.  By summer 2011, the weight was back on. In my commitment to be fit and my quest to lose the last 10 pounds, I will be doing enough.   I will exercise enough and I will eat enough.  I will change my body and change my life in a healthy, and maintainable way. When I run, I will run fast enough.  When I lift, I will lift heavy enough.  When I stretch, I will stretch far enough.   I will, simply, do enough.

Feel the burn.

B is no longer for beer and I'm sad   I really should have thought this theme through a little bit more.  Words that start with B and are relative to my "commit to fit" challenge aren't the easiest to come by.  I've decided to go with " burn "  because I am already feeling it!! On Saturday I decided to terrorize exercise my core and upper body after my run.  DOMS set in late on Sunday and after an intense work out tonight, I dread laughing.    My commit to be fit challenge will include 3-4 strength training sessions per week in addition to my half marathon training program.  It's time to feel the burn !  Can you feel it?

Good choices.

Happy Monday everyone!  I hope your week is a good one! We're on Letter G for the A-Z Challenge, and my commit to be fit post is about making good choices. Making good choices isn't always easy for me.  Mainly, because I'm usually really drunk and not thinking about what's best for me in the long run. You're probably thinking that I'm talking about making good diet choices and, of course, I am, but they aren't the only choices that need to be made when choosing to live a fit and healthy lifestyle.   Nutrition and diet choices are, actually, probably the easiest of all them all.
