There were a couple of 2 mile runs last week. Regarding my progress this week... let's just blame it on the turkey and family gatherings!?
Today, I ran my one and only run this week. Warmed up with a brisk 0.5m walk, ran 1m, walked another 0.5m and ran another 1m. There must be progress because I am faster and can run 1m without stopping. Still plan to start trail running, maybe next weekend! What I've noticed is, when I stick to running and eating healthy, I see my weight starting to dip, but then I spluge and have some not-too-healthy food which makes me go back to where I was. Hence, running is allowing me to eat without weight gain! What a huge plus? But my goal is still to get leaner.
Non-running related update - Thanksgiving Weekend Shopping!
I got a pair of Joe's 'ICON' jeans 25% off at the Joe's Jean store on Grant St., thank goodness I didn't buy them last week when I was birthday present shopping for myself. They are so comfortable because they are wider at the thighs. That's right, my half-white body is finally catching up to me (or maybe it's all that muscle I've been buidling with running, jk). Most exciting of them all, I got Theroy jacket & pants 30% off at Nordstrom today! The discount was very discrete, just one sign that said "discount will be taken at register" but no notices on the amount of discount. Trust me, I had a good day.
