It's been a while...
Tuesday, 24 June 2008 - Written by rpduffy [profile]
Man, it has been over a month since my last entry. Things here are pretty good. I am back to running 10-15 miles a week. I took a week off in early June and it was tough to get back out there. The good news is that as slow as I run, I have shaved over a min off my mile pace in 2.5 months... so that's good. I am at a mental/physical barrier currently. I run 3 or 4 miles just fine, but that 5 mile run is KILLING me. I know it is something I just need to slow down and push through but god it hurts to even think about running that right now... let alone 8 or 9 miles which I need to get to eventually. The good news I am back to consistent running 3 to 4 times a week at lunchtime. I have dropped 23 lbs in 2.5 months and feel fantastic! I have another 30 lbs to go... a few pool parties and tennis mixers have gotten in the way of my progress lately but I am determined to get to 210 lbs., at 6' 3" I would be SUPER happy with that weight... I think I was 13 years old last time I weighed that little :). Maybe I will celebrate with Cherry Coke and Root Beer gummies, just like I would have 21 years ago. Anyway, I am as focused as ever and I am back to looking forward to runs and getting on the scale in the morning. Nine months to the ING Half-Marathon... I gotta get there! Stay focused.
