It's been 3 weeks since I blogged. I really need to post more often. It's been a busy three weeks. There was Thanksgiving holiday , school days off, my daughter's birthday, my son's birthday, and so on. I spent the morning of Thanksgiving Day running my first 10K race with my husband. The famous Turkey Trot. My goal was to run it straight and that I did at a wonderful 12:30/mile pace. Yay me. That being said, it was NOT EASY! But doable.
The best news of all is that I have lost a few lbs! I've been adamant about counting my calories and using MyFitnessPal and eating every three hours. Guess what? It has worked! Now I hope it keeps working! I'm down to 162. The holidays are here so I better be strong willed with all the sweets I'll be making.
The princesses in training are still at work. Some are training harder than others. Some have been injured. I'm the psycho one of the group pushing myself harder and harder. I ran 10 miles for the first time 2 weeks ago. 10 MILES! My pace was steady at a 12:34/mile and when I got to my car and looked down at my running watch and saw 10, I almost cried. I felt alive and strong and elated. Disney Princess Half Marathon, I'm coming after you!
