Weekend bust

This past weekend was a bust. I hardly accomplished anything on my to do list.

Saturday morning I got up at the crack of dawn, aka 6:30am, to meet up with E and get our "long" run in. With three weeks left until Austin, our goal was 8 miles. But as soon as we started out on our run, I just wasn't feeling it. I told E flat out a few minutes in that if we didn't make 8, I wouldn't be upset about it. If I had been alone, I prob would have just went home. But E kept me going and we ran 7.6 miles.

After a quick bite to eat, I had to get home quick and shower and then get over to the warehouse. It was clean up day. All the signage and equipment and anything else you can think of from race weekend had to be cleaned and/or organized and then stored correctly until next year. oof and it was hot out on Saturday. After five hours at the warehouse I made it home and promptly took a three hour nap. woops. Then I watched the second season of Scandal. Until 1am.

So on Sunday I just stayed in bed. First I woke up at 6am and I just would not let myself get up. I ended up sleeping off and on for another six hours! But I needed it. And I'm glad I didn't have anything that needed to be done. So when I finally got up I cleaned a little and then sat right back on the couch to watch more tv. I debated getting out and doing something, but I was just too lazy. I did run to the grocery, but that was it. The SAG awards were tonight which meant a red carpet show on E! and who doesn't love watching those?

And I did finally catch up on The Bachelor so I can watch tonight. Where do these women find their clothes? And why are most of them so crazy?

Here's what: August 15

Here's what three things I'm obsessed with this week... If you haven't seen this photo of Usain Bolt winning the men's 100m at the IAAF World Championships, you might be living under a rock. There are five sessions, and some pretty good events, left to go at Worlds. And Team USA is currently sitting atop the medal table with a total of 10 medals - 4 gold, 5 silver and 1 bronze. So...I joined a local running club. And I signed up for the marathon training program! Not that I'm signed up for an actual marathon or anything. This particular training group is training for my race, so I can't exactly run that. There are weekly track sessions and long runs are on Saturdays. The program lasts for 22 weeks. Well but we've already missed two weeks bc of other commitments. E and I will be doing this together. We'll see how this goes.  Towards the end of September is something called Social Media Week. It is a leading media platform and worldwide event ...

New Goals - Lean

So I finally went back for my follow up body fat test last Tuesday. I didn't really know what to expect. I knew I had lost some weight and I could see more muscle definition, but I wasn't sure. I told myself I would be happy with anything under 30% since I was 33.8 the last time I went. So of course in the lead up to the test I had like 5 cheat meals. Insert eye roll here. Saturday was margaritas and Mexican for dinner. Sunday was brunch and champagne and pizza. And then Monday was more Mexican bc of Sunday. Whoops. Clearly I had to run Tuesday morning before the test. hahahaha Then at lunch time I headed over to visit Heather. The got a new machine that's so supposed to be even more accurate than the BodPod and you don't even have to strip down lol. So my new results were: Weight - 147.6 Body Fat - 27.8 So I lost 6.3 pounds and 6% body fat. Total time elapsed between tests was 16 weeks. This places me in the moderately lean category for women. Moving fo...

Weekend

I love weekends. I wish they were longer...doesn't everybody? It was quite the lazy weekend too, being that it was so hot out. I ran Sunday...kind of. It was so hot, I hadn't had enough water, or food for that matter, so I cut my run short. And then we opted to eat out instead of cooking. I really need to cook this week. And maybe not drink. Except I have half a bottle of red left over from last night's Bachelorette finale fiesta with E.  Monday. Oh Monday. Cancelled my run once again when the car told me it was 102 outside. Can't wait to be able to run in the mornings. Last night was the Bachelorette season finale so E came over for dinner and some wine. I now love sweet potatoes and I may have had a little too much to drink. And then decided it was a good time to update my iOS on my iphone. I'm still trying to get my phone back to where it should be. It made me do a complete restore, then I couldn't restore from a current backup and when I was f...
