Its been a tough couple of weeks. Ever since the 5k, I have been slow to get back into the exercise that I did when training for the race. After the race, I spent a couple of days recovering due to the major blisters on my feet. I could definitely tell that my stamina went down along with that. So as soon as I started feeling better, my foot started feeling like I sprained it, so my workouts again could not go full force like I wanted to. Ugh!! And I could feel it too, my body was craving the movements I was missing. I couldn't believe it! My body misses the movement! This week, my foot is getting better. I've got new running shoes (the ones I had actually had a blowout), I got Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred dvd, and my gym membership. I'm getting back to the workouts I need to be doing.
I still have that goal of running the next 5k in February. I will do it. If I can walk a 5k with only 2 weeks training, I so got this! Running is a big challenge for me. My knees aren't conditioned for running. I never loved running, ever. In high school I was totally one of the last ones to finish a lap when they told us to run. Of course, I was fitter then, I did the marching band and never realized how much exercise it was until now, looking back on all my old pictures, I thought I was big then.
I wonder what it would be like if I fit in that dress again, I still have that prom dress. I haven't been able to give it away and I really don't know why. I had that thing in a garage sale and couldn't sell the thing. That dress was I think a size 14 or 16. Maybe I should keep it as kind of a goal dress. Once I fit in it, me and my husband should go out, but where? Hmm... something to think about.
My new favorite snack/dessert is strawberries. Love them!
