I weighed in at 180.6 this morning, so that's 3 days in a row I've stayed at 180....will I be able to break through this week?? I ran 4.5 miles yesterday, yoga/abs the day before, and a 6 mile run this past Sunday. Tonight I have to do 45 minutes. I tried running in my orthotics for the first time yesterday and ended up with blisters on my arches. I've been wearing them everyday at work with no problems - so I'm not quite sure what to do. Do I just wear them daily - or do I continue to try to run in them despite the blisters?? They are sports orthotics that are made for long distance running...
I spent most of my day yesterday (3 hrs and 45 min) getting my hair done....I hate that it takes so long!! I guess if I wasn't so picky about having different shades of red in my hair I'd be in and out in no time. I did end up cutting it again and love it :) I also got a massage yesterday - much needed! My massage therapist is heading to the U.P. for the spring/summer so I'm going to have to find a new one :( My left leg has been acting up a little and I'm hoping that it doesn't turn into anything serious. I've been really diligent about stretching well after my runs - and incorporating yoga into my cross training.
Are you wearing poly running socks? No cotton. That should help with the blisters.
ReplyDeleteMy weight hasn't changed much lately either. Its a little annoying, but I know I'm not totally committed to this diet thing! Oh well, I have a new plan for next week that I think will get me below 180. My goal is 170 - 175, so I'm really close, I just need to get in gear.
I'm looking forward to doing yoga again. I really need to loosen up. My shin has been okay, but my knee is still a problem when I workout real hard. I tape up my shin and knee both when I run, and that helps alot.
I have a massage on Wednesday of next week. I am so looking forward to that. I can refer you, but its all the way in Saginaw (almost to Shields!). But she's very good. She's not afraid to really beat you up.
Keep up the good work. Once the weather breaks, we can start running together outside. I'm signing Tee and I up for St. Pat's this weekend, and maybe the Martian. I still actually have time left on both those applications. Did you already sign up for the Martain 1/2?
