Pink team in the house!!! This week the pink team is in first place. It can change at any moment, so let's keep up the great work!!
I ran another 5K this past weekend. I was hoping to finish in under 30 minutes. I've been working on my speed lately, since I am a very slow runner. I usually run a 10+ minute mile. Well, I totally did it! I finished in 29 minutes. My first mile was 10:01, second was 9:10, and my third was 9:07. I felt an amazing sense of achievement when I finished. Of course, I thought I was going to puke...but I felt so proud. :) I'm signing up for a 5K at D.W. Fields Park on April 7th. Who's with me???? Walk or run, we'll feel great that we did it!!
My Grandmother's 85th birthday was last week, and we celebrated on Sunday night. I ate cake. I ate cake that I don't even like!! (I'm a strictly White's Bakery chocolate cake/vanilla frosting girl.) I ate said cake because it was a birthday party, and it was there. It just goes to show you that this lifestyle change is a constant battle. Just when you think you've got it figured out, and you get complacent, you have a weak moment. To keep it all in perspective, though...I think that we all deserve weak moments sometimes. It's when it becomes the norm that it's a problem. I played 2 games of basketball last night (that's ~120 minutes of running around), so I'm pretty sure that I worked off that cake. :)
I'm working on a post about my daily diet. I'm busy taking pictures of all of my food (since I eat pretty much the same thing every day) to share with you. If you have any favorite foods that are packed with nutrients and aren't filled with processed junk, share them in the comments! I'd love to add some new things to my daily routine!!
