in the past two weeks:
In Gatlinburg: one 3.2 mile run up and down some VERY steep hills. Difficult but fun.
Sunday the 21st: Sick but went out for six miler at Stone Mountain. Had to quit and go home and rest.
Monday the 22nd: attempted 6 miles at Stone Mountain. I failed. Ran/walked 5.5. Tim did 6. Very disappointing.
Wednesday the 24th: Even more disappointing. Tried to run three miles in the morning around Rust lakes. I quit at 1, then ran/walked to 2. Tim ran three.
Friday the 26th: Great 4 miler at Rock Island. Didn’t stop except to walk up major hill! Very tough- sore calves for us both all during the run- but finished at Grissom bridge. Think I’m getting the hang of this again.
Saturday the 27th: 3 mile walk with Dad, Uncle Jeff, Aunt Kay, and Samantha.
Sunday the 28th: 6 miles!!! 2.5 miles through neighborhood, bathroom break at Publix, went to 3.5 at Tim’s work at Emory, turned around. Very quick breaks on the way to 5 miles. Breather at 5 miles. Finished to 6 in spurts. I’ve tasted discipline again. I think this is a tipping point. We were exhausted- walked another mile to 7 home- then went to Outback and tried to replenish. Didn’t meet calorie quote for today, I’m sure. Rest day tomorrow.
