Well another 1lb down so that is almost 5lbs in four weeks, was hoping for more this week. Mind you doesn't everyone want 1lb more, or 2lbs more. But then it really is no surprise this week from pizza, the golden arches and two lunches out and a dinner out it really should not come as a shock.
Running wise, I gave the weekly runs a miss last week to give my hip some time to recover and it has worked thank goodness. It was starting to worry me how painful it still was.
Yesterdays long run however, was the farthest I have ever attempted. I perhaps wasn't the most successful run but I did try to stick to my run 4 minutes and walk 2 minutes and in doing so I did the 7 miles in 1hr 32 minutes. I was a good girl too and did my stretches for both warm up and cool down and the good old hip didn't get sore till 4.5miles in.
Ironically I joked with my friend Annie that I would wave if I got as far as their house on my 3.5 mile out and back and sure enough where was the turning point... a stones throw from their garden. So next week I think (and Annie if you are reading this lol!) I will take her up of her offer, I will text as I leave the car park and pick up fresh water at the edge of the garden!!!!
So what will this week bring? No measured mile tonight that is for sure as it is blowing a howling gale outside .... ah but what about that super duper treadmill I hear you say.... well with Hubby having to work on the laptop at the kitchen table and the starting of a cold appearing, yet again I am foregoing a run.
This week however, I am hoping to add in another element of training with some cross training or rather some "biggest loser" on the wii fit. Of course if its bad news at work on Thursday I may have more time to fit in some training if I am going to become a lady of leisure!!!! (but please some positive vibes that my team are 'safe' from this round of redundancies)
