Day 3

I got through the weekend relatively unscathed.  I will be happy to get back to the structure of my weekday which usually works better for me in terms on eating at regular intervals and keeping busy (which prevents me from thinking I am hungry when I may actually just be looking for something to do).

Today while I was on the treadmill doing my 10.44 miles, an apparently very fit woman next to me told me that I was her inspiration!  She said that she was telling herself she had to stay on the treadmill because I was still going.  I was motivated to go a little further after she said that and kept it up until my leg started to feel sore.  After 3.1, 8.9 and 10.4 miles during three consecutive days, it was time to stop.  I will lift weights tomorrow and run again on Tuesday.

My sister Debra took my measurements today.  (Thanks Sis!)  I am looking forward to those numbers going down!

I have decided I am going to invest in a treadmill.  It's somewhat expensive, but better than waiting for the gym to open and worrying about not being able to sign up for hours when I need to do long mileage inside.  I think it will be a great investment in my health and help me reach my goals.
