Countdowns…

92 days until Pittsburgh Half Marathon…

8 days until my 29th birthday…

1 day until new computer!

I’m not one to wish my life away, but is it so wrong that I just want today to go quickly so I can get to the awesomeness that will be tomorrow? Because tomorrow is going to be awesome.

I feel skinny today. 🙂

That’s all. I just thought I should tell you. 🙂

sore!

My calves are wicked sore. In a good way, but sore nonetheless. I’m not going to say it’s the barefoot shoes, because I’ve been wearing them for almost a month now, but rather I think it’s playing with the WiiFit (which I don’t really consider a workout, just fun). I tend to land on the balls of my feet and it’s much more calf-centric than my regular runs. But I really felt it after my 3-miler yesterday. So I’m laying low until my scheduled 4-miler on Saturday.

I feel really good about how things are progressing. I know roughly how far my scale is off of the one at WW and if I’m right I might hit 10% this week, and if not this week then definitely by my birthday next week. Holla! This is a BFD for me as I’ve done WW before and ended up fading out of it before the 10% mark, so getting that stupid keychain is important to me.

I have the BEST day planned for Saturday. I have to keep reminding myself that my birthday is NEXT week because I’m so excited for this Saturday. First I will go to my meeting (and hopefully get my keychain), then boy and I will meet up to go grocery shopping. Then we’ll come home, put groceries away, I’ll change clothes and we’ll go into town to see an art exhibit (paintings by the director of the summer camp I work for), get lunch (I have a birthday coupon from one of my favorite restaurants), and pick up my new computer!!! So psyched. Then I have a 4-mile run, and then in the evening we’re going to see the one-act at the high school (a friend is the director and a bunch of other friends are involved with the costumes, tech, ads, etc.). Then we’ll probably go out for a drink or two with the crew. Can’t wait. 🙂

Jillian Michaels Radio Show-Podcast #1!!

Jillian Michaels Radio Show-Podcast #1!!

Wicked excited that Jillian Michaels podcast is back. I LOVE to listen to her while I’m working out and I’ve missed her show over the past year.

Had a shit-tastic run yesterday. It was supposed to be an easy 2-miler. But I just.couldn’t.do it. I basically walked and only did 1.23 miles. I have a 3-miler scheduled for today (or tomorrow) but I think I’m going to go today and do it since I’ll have this piece of action on my iPod. Boo yah!

(1) submitted my 1st proof for the February Fitblr races–doing the 5k this time around. A pretty average 5k time for me–43:30. My goal is to break 40 by my 2nd proof.

(2) today marks 2 weeks until my birthday. I will start celebrating next week. (seriously, I already have next Saturday all planned out) I ::heart:: my birthday–and I can tell already that 29 is going to be an AWESOME year. 🙂

(3) I was down another 2 lbs at my meeting this morning, which puts me 2-3 pounds from my 10%–and I want that damn keychain as my birthday present! I can totally do this in the next couple of weeks. It’s.On.
