Ok, so I said I would be more faithful in the updates. I lied but I didn't mean to. I could give lots of excuses and all of them would be valid but I will spare you all the gore. LOL
So, as you can see from the date Paul is gone. He has been gone now for two weeks. I miss him more than I ever thought possible. Its funny how much I needed leave and also how hard it was for me to watch him go back. Thankfully, things are getting back to my preleave routine with the exception of crossfit (more on that in a bit)so that helps.
Crossfit is on a bit of a hiatus because DIF folded and Ali is opening her own place. It isnt finished yet because the bldg was new so she has had to start it from scratch. It is coming together and I know she hopes to be open within a couple of weeks. She is sending us workouts to do at home though. Some I have done, some I have not. I have been helping out at the new place with some of the cleaning and its good to get to help out. I dont have too much to do in the day time so I enjoy getting out. Also, I am enjoying getting to know Ali. She is a lot like me I am finding out which is probably one reason we work so well together. At anyrate I can hardly wait to be back in a group doing the workouts. I know its going to be more organized which is good. I also know that unless you can pay you arent going to be there which I also think is good. Too often at DIF there were free rides and they halfway did things, took time from the trainers and it wasnt fair to those of us who did pay.
My weight is good. I lost the few pounds I gained when Paul was home and I set myself some new goals to get to my personal goal. I think that is what was lacking with me. I needed another goal. Ali told me it is all about setting a goal and working to achieve it. I have thought of this often as well as the theory she uses on taste everything, eat nothing. It makes tons of sense. I have been makeing better choices lately. I even turned down Coldstone tomorrow! I will be doing a long run (4 miles so not too long) and even though I would have negated the calories its really counterproductive so I choose not to do it. My reward will be the size smaller pants I hope to buy by my birthday in June.
June is half marathon month! Kara and Ashley are going to do it with me. It is in Wilson and its called the Run One For the Road Half. It benefits domestic violence education so its for a great cause. The informations says its a fairly flat course and so thats good. I want to run more of this one so I am training like it. My training actually is consisting of more running. Go figure. Tomorrow we are doing 10 on 2 off for the four miles. Next week I think I may up the miles but not the interval. The week after that I think I will keep the mileage but up the interval.
Oh, on top of the half I have signed up for 3 5Ks in the next month. Whew!
I am super excited that in April I am going to KS City with my sisters to see King George in concert. He is also got Reba and Leann Womack. I plan on spending about 10 days with my mom and dad too. I have to make the time to train while I am there though which I hope doesnt become hard for me!
Well I think that about does it for now. I will update after my run tomorrow if for nothing else so that I have a place to log progress.
TTFN-the pic is when Paul was home on R&R! Arent we great together? I just adore him!
