Ran at around 12. Slow pace. Came home and took the dogs for a .80 mile walk

stretching with some yoga poses. Did some hamstring exercises.

Verrrry icy out. I almost fell like 5 times during my .5 walk with the dogs in the morning. And it was warm (30ish)

So I thought it might be better in the afternoon. Nope my car slide on the road. So I stayed in

I did Jillians Kickboxing and 1/2 of 30 day shred level 2 (Just pooped!)

1:10 plank (i think i'm regressing rather than progressing...bummer) I did tilt my tail bone in. I think that helped as far as form. I think I was subconsciously bowing my back thus causing some strain. YUCK.

Okay so new CANDY ATTACH PLAN. Since I can't full out say no. I am allowing myself 1-2 candy/sweets servings per day (today I went way over with 1 100grand bar (a mini one)--and 2 or 3 rice krispy treats while tutoring)

And if I go two weeks straight like this then I will buy myself a massage. I really need it. So I'm hoping that giving myself a little treat to look forward to will keep me going strong.

Yeah running! Brrrr cold! Yeah foam roller!

i think of so much to write in my blog while on my run. then I get infront of the computer and boom it is all gone.

I do have one thing-I only have one rice krispy treat today. YUM. I made chicken marsala for dinner and I"m so stuffed I just don't see myself eating my second serving of candy. I can almost feel my massage!

So I'm off to trying this knitting group over at the library.

2 hour delay for school...-13 degrees...maybe i'll try running after work when it is above zero

 

pm--still too freaking cold. this is getting old. the ellip is getting old and I just want to freaking run. I suppose the weather is 'helping' me not over do it. but this is ridiculous.

Went and saw a new band last night. It was awful. We usually see this other band but they aren't playing at the venue we go to till March. Epic fail! Next time we will just wait! LOL

My run felt great. I got tired/hungry after like mile 3. I have a lot of work to do in terms of getting my endurance back.

No pain!
