Wow, I'm sorry it has been almost a month since my last post.
Well that is my life. I work full time with children who sometimes make me think thoughts about late term abortions. Then when I'm done trying to teach the little Satans that call me the b word every chance they get I go to school full time. Then when I'm done with that I come home and make dinner and do homework.
I should consider myself lucky that I have time to exercise. Well I did take a few days off from running because I had gone hiking somewhere close to Mowich Lake. I burned over 1500 calories thanks to the fact that I was hauling my snowboarding gear around with me.
I have also been a little under the weather. Here is a funny story. SO everyone around me is getting sick and I think, "Wow I should be really grateful that I'm not sick and that I don't get sick very easily." (The terrible thing about that is that when I actually get sick, it puts me on my death bed) Later that night while saying my prayers I decided to voice my thanks for having a strong healthy body and for not getting sick. The next morning I woke up with a sore throat. Go figure.
At least I'm not extremely sick. No strep and no flu and simply a minor cold that I am avoiding by blowing my nose regularly.
OK back to the real reason for this blog, Weight loss and Healthy living.
I finished another running chart! That is 3 now! 2 more and I will be able to buy my Rock Revival Jeans!! (Well granting I can afford it and that I am at a size that they would look good!) The dots indicate days when I beat a personal best record!
I have decided that the first 1.5 - 1.75 miles are the hardest, after that barrier you can just keep going. Whenever I realize I am walking I think, "I could be running... ok" then I start running again.
I came home from work pretty worked up yesterday and looking forward to going running. I was very adamant about getting a spotify subscription so I could listen to whatever the heck angry music I wanted. Turns out I didn't have to pay and was able to use a 30 day free trial! Hooray I have awesome music from now until march 4th when I will probably decide to pay for it or sign up with a different email and still get it for free!
I ran my fastest 5k yesterday! 37 minutes WOOT WOOT! I am trying to get faster. So I did it faster today, 36 minutes but unfortunately I had set my tracker to fitness walking because I was planning on walking and not running, so it didn't count as a 5k.
Weigh day #27
As for my weight I am at 182.6 which is less than what my license says! WOOT WOOT! However I have gotten stuck here and didn't lose anything this last week. Why is this going so slow? At first it was going great, but now it is a snail race!

I am also frustrated with the fact that it's not all coming off evenly, my waist has lost a lot more than my thighs. Which is not fair because my waist was already the smallest part of me!! What da heck body?!
- Motivation: Burn off stress!!
- Listening to: 3 Days Grace, Shinedown, Volbeat,
- Thankful for: My endurance to just keep going!
I'm not posting the route and stats this post, maybe next time, sorry if that's what you came for :(
