Day 4 - Just Say NO to Poppy Seed Cake

The math department has treats on a weekly basis.  Today one of my colleagues brought a whole poppy seed cake.  It does not help that my desk is directly across from the table that holds all the goodies.  That cake was calling me but I just refused to listen.  I am going to need serious determination for the long haul to reach my goals.  Fortunately I had taken some fruit with me so it worked out okay.

I HATE working out in the evening.  Ugh.  I would rather wake up at 5 everyday instead of dragging myself to the gym at night.  However, I had to grade papers this morning so I had no choice but to go the the gym this evening.  Fortunately, I needed to lift weights instead of running.  Somehow I am able to muster the strength to lift in the evenings while just the thought of starting a run at night wears me out.  Once I got there I was all business and had a fantastic upper body workout.  I will hit the gym in the morning to do a 4-miler.  With the marathon less than 8 weeks away, I am FOCUSED!

Time for bed...good night.
