Updates

I don't know what I've been doing that I haven't updated my blog in so long, but here we go:

Sat 1/14
Today was my grandmother's birthday...I was looking forward to do doing two runs, an am and pm, but it didn't happen. It was so bitterly cold Sat morning, I ended up sleeping in with Andy. Actually, Buddy has an internal 8 a.m. timer, so we never get to sleep past 8, unless one of us (usually me) feeds him breakfast while the other (usually Andy) gets some more (but not much) sleep.

Sun 1/15
No running today. I wasn't feeling so great so I didn't do much of anything.

Mon 1/16
I did another sunset run of about 40 minutes, while Andy waited around for the UPS guy to bring his espresso machine. Poor thing. It never happened. But I did a nice run in.

Tues - Fri
No runs. Blah. Major cramping (of that other kind). The last thing I've been wanting to do is propel myself forward with any kind of speed. Being horizontal feels best...being curled up in the fetal position is even better. I walked 20 mins Thurs morning and another 20 Thurs night. Today I walked 30 minutes and I'll try to do at least another 20 tonight. If I do 30 minutes, that'll be 10 laps total -- that's 6 miles! I did lift weights on Wednesday, so I haven't been a total slob. I must be doing something right (mainly lifting more weights and eating smaller meals) because I finally (finally!!!) got my pre-wedding body back and managed to slip into my smallest pants with plenty of room to spare. It only took me a year.
