Did ya miss me??

    I'm still here!! I did not fall off the face of the earth.  My Internet has been down and work has been crazy busy so I haven't been able to post. Sooooo I will just give you a quick update on what has been going on with me. 
     So I finally decided to sign up for my 5K. It's 12Ks for the holidays. They have a 5K run/walk which is what I am participating in.  It is November 19 which is in about 2 weeks so I am trying to run at least every other day to increase by endurance. I was able to run 3.40 miles in 50:03 and then I did it again and ran 3.20 miles in 40:40. Right now I'm not worried about my speed I just want to complete the 5K without having to stop and walk. After this then the next one I will try to increase by time.  I'm excite about it but now kinda bummed because my husband has to work.  I totally wanted him to be there. My sister is going out of town and she won't be here either.  Ahh! Last weekend I got some new shoes. They are my RUNN-IN SHOES (in my Forest Gump voice).  The are pink and purdy!

Like em?  They weren't too pricey. 

  So I am in the process of trying to develop my own strength training schedule.  I still can't seem to bring myself to do the p90X again yet, it is just so redundant and I dread it. I don't want to dread my workouts. I want to really enjoy them. So any tips are welcomed. 

   Last Monday was Halloween.  I had an alligator hunter on my hands. She had the gators under control.  Sunday night we went to a fall festival at our church and then she went Trick or treating Monday night and racked up. She was so cute going up to the doors and saying, "Trit-treat". And then saying "thank you" 5 or 6 times after they gave her the candy. She is very polite. I did ok horribly when it came to the chocolate from Halloween. Trying to redeem myself this week. That's all I'll say about that.



     Last night my sister and I went and ran after ball after ball after ball played tennis. It was really fun.  We did occasionally hit the ball back and forth a few times.  We may do it again Thursday night. So MJ if you are up for it again ..Holla!

Me and my fabulous sister!!!

     So today I didn't do so good on my eating and so so on my run.  Breakfast was some string cheese and turkey. I didn't feel like eating the normal breakfast food. Work was C.R.A.Z.Y.!!!!  So I had two cups of coffee and forgot snack. I ate lunch when I came home and had some egg drop soup and then supper was a spinach salad with cranberries, almonds, low fat feta cheese, grilled chicken and a little bit of balsamic vinaigrette dressing. It was delish!  Like a Newks salad. 

Sorry for the flash. It was so good that I packed me one for lunch. 

      After supper we went to my Husband's grandmother's house and drew names for Christmas. Then I went for a run and ran 2.6 miles in about 30 min. stopped b/c I got a phone call and is was my sis! So of course I had to talk. :) Goodnight peeps!
