Sorry I was gone for so long. So here's an update.
I completely lost my motivation. I was so tired at the end of my day that I just couldn't do it. I still am having a hard time balancing work with my personal life. I don't have enough time for either.
After 27 days of not running or exercising it was hard to get back out there and start again. That is why the title of this post is Hard Run. The second run I had after restarting was the second hardest run I have ever had. The first of course was the very first one. The one where I decided I had to change and I was tired of being big and unhealthy.
I have been having lots of hard runs. It is made worse by how slow I am running and the times I have to run. I hate running in the afternoons, but it's the only plausible time for me to run. I feel I run better in the morning and in crisp cool air! Like today! It was nice and cold outside and the fresh air felt great!
Well I am slowly starting to get my motivation back thanks to supportive friends and family!
A few thank yous:
- Mike Anderson ( My handsome husband!)
- Jaclynn Wilkinson, Leona Stookey, and Michelle Dayley (My friends)
- Jason and Kristel Anderson (My family)
These are my new running shoes! Oh and new neon running socks by a brand called Feetures! get it Feet... tures! It took me longer than it should have but hey I was tired! They are supposed to be blister proof.. we shall see...we shall see.
Weigh day report:
I'm not sure where I am at right now. This week has been torture. My first natural cycle off of BC pills. I forgot how horribly it affects my weight and emotions. It is so hard to not eat your emotions. Thursday I went off the deep end. 7-11 was my best friend. I haven't gone that crazy is a while though so I figured it was okay considering the circumstances.
- Motivation: MUST LOSE MORE WEIGHT!
- Listening to: Panic At the Disco!, Red Hot Chili Peppers, M.I.A., Luda
- Thankful for: The cold air!
