I lost .6 lbs this week. That puts me at 2.2 lbs away from my pre-pregnancy weight (with Isaac). I’m so close. I’d love to lose another 10 lbs after that, but we’ll take it one goal at a time. Nathan and I have both been working hard at this and it’s nice to be able to support each other.
Tomorrow is my long run day. I have an 8 mile run scheduled. It’s my last “long” run before the race next week. Since I’ll be out running for over an hour tomorrow, I’m in the process of downloading some podcasts to keeps me company along the way. I’m getting excited and anxious about the race. This will be the first one that I’ve done that I’ve actually trained hard for. The first one I did was just to prove that I could do it. The second one was just a month or so after recovering from hurting my IT band and I had not been putting in many miles in preparation, but it wasn’t hard to beat my first race time. This time, I did 7 weeks of specific training that included speed work. I’m also entering this race about 10 pounds lighter than my last one. I think that training and weight loss should help. Now, if we could just have a nice 60 degree day with no humidity!
I have some new shoes:
I also found a running tank top on clearance at Target for $2.48. It’s pink. I like pink. At least my top and my shoes will be cute when the rest of me is covered in sweat.
Isaac wasn’t as easy today, but he still napped well this morning. I can tell he likes having all the toys to himself. Two molars have poked through on the top. I can feel 3 more major bumps on the bottom that should pop through soon. Poor child. 5 teeth at once. Hopefully, we’ll have this round of teething out of the way soon.
We get to see our big kids tomorrow! Yeah! We have missed them, but they are having a fabulous time.
ooooh, such cute new shoes!
Cute shoes! I hope the race goes well for you next week! Wish I could be running it with. In the future though hopefully we can
I almost got those — i love the purple~!
