Double

It is Tuesday, which means I get up and hop on the scale. I lost another pound which brings me to the -10 mark! That being said I know this last 10-12 will be so hard. I want it to be hard because I feel when its too easy it comes back too easily. I am truly looking for a lifestyle change. I am making great strides to do that. I am proud of what I have done so far and looking forward to the future.
I ran my 5 mile race this weekend. I kicked butt! There has been some dispute by some race goers about the actual distance not being 5 miles. It doesn't matter how far I ran I know my pace throughout the race and its my fastest ever. I also ran a similar course the full five miles a few days before the race and it was fast too. I'm hoping this is enough to keep me motivated to keep running. My hip muscle problem is acting up again. I don't really think it is from the running though. I have been running the same since my pt ended in August. The only thing that changed since that time is also something that I was doing the last time I had this issue is spinning. I love spinning, it is just as addictive as running. I am going to take some time off this week and work on my stretching and muscle strengthening and then ease back into running next week. I will hold off on the spin bike for now.
