Weighday #55 and New section added!

Day 383: Run 129

Weigh day report:
Back on track and I'm feeling good! I hope my weight loss continues!! Today I weighed 187 lbs.! Just gotta keep going!

 
My run today was annoying because it definitely did not track right. It's a 4 mile run. I know it's a 4 mile run. There is no denying it's a 4 mile run but for some reason my tracker decided to track it at 3.3 and 3.5 this week making me very angry!

  • Motivation:  I have to lose weight! I'm tired of being a little tea pot short and stout!

  • Listening to:  My angry run mix but it didn't seem to pump me up like it usually does! Guess I wasn't angry enough!

  • Thankful for: Running.. if I was wasn't running I would have been trapped by the Jehovah's Witness's. Darn old ladies telling me I should have run earlier in the day and then try to talk religion with me... Get outta here! (said with a thick Jersey accent!)

Route &Stats:

I'm not post route and stats because it says that I was running a 14 minute mile... Oh Reginald!... I DISAGREE!!!!! It's impossible for me to run a 14 minute mile.... I walk a 15 minute mile and even if I walked half the mile I would still be at a 13.5 minute mile!! Here's the math....

SO I usually run a 11-12 minute mile so half a mile would be about 6 minutes. I walk a 15 minute mile and half of that would 7.5 minutes. 7.5+6= 13.5!!!! 14 is out of the question!

When I got home and calculated the run it evened out to about 13.25 minutes per mile. It's hard to stay motivated when your tracker is off.


Lifestyle:
This is a new section I am adding to talk about healthy living. Some of the things might be funny and some of the things might be serious and inspirational. Today I thought I would start off with funny inspired by Mary Dempsey! This is my new theme song! It describes how I must think and feel when I see a plate of cookies or brownies or even a huge bowl of potato salad!
