What happened to the weekend?

Weekends go by so quickly. They should be longer. Although we are quickly approaching the time of your for me that is also know as hurry up and schedule 20 vacation/comp days before you lose them at the end of May. So there will be many random days off in my future. And let's not forget the beginning of Spring Friday's where I also get every other Friday off. Pool time, relaxing and adventures are in my near future.

This weekend saw some of that. Pasta dinner with friends Friday night. A run and relaxing at the pool Saturday. And yoga, the pool and more running on Sunday followed by one of my favorite dinners...pizza and beer. For as good as I am trying to be food-wise, it's always good to have a cheat day. Or weekend. But it was just the one meal for me this weekend.

Why would I pay for a photo that looks this bad? Haha

My dog is the weirdest

My face kind of looks like an alien? whatever. Finally getting hot enough to nap at the pool

In love with this setup. If I move back into a loft/bigger place, I want to do something similar.

Pool day #2...So. Much. Pollen.

That was a lot faster then I meant to go...

Dang. It's been six years since I went to Doha...and lost the feeling in my arm on the flight over.

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...

Fabulous Run
