A Muggy Morning

Day 9

August 7, 2012

This is the last full week of summer break for me. I start back to work (I'm a school teacher) next Tuesday.

I want to continue running when I go back to work. Hopefully running in the morning before I begin getting ready.

Dylan and I ran this morning around 9am and it was MUGGY!!! I felt sooo tired, hot and a little nauseous. I rested for a few minutes then took a cool shower. After that I felt much better. I got dressed and ready to meet up with my hubby, Daniel, for lunch at my favorite place! The Gourmet Shop, downtown Columbia, has the BEST chicken salad. I like mine on a croissant with provolone cheese and a side of their pesto pasta! YUM! It's probably not the best lunch for me but for my last week of summer break, it was a great treat.

This past week I have been running, I have not "dieted". Instead, I have had ice cream almost every single night while watching the Olympics! I still lost so I'm not really going to cut back just yet. I'm sure once school starts back I won't have much time to snack so hopefully it will resolve itself :)

Here are my stats for today's run...

Total miles run: 1.77
Total time run: 21:42
Avg. Min/mile: 12:16
Calories burned: 227

I like that it doesn't take too much time to work out! With a 5 min warm-up and cool-down, I'm averaging only 35 minutes per workout! I know once I get stronger and faster I could go longer but for now my body seems to think that's enough!
