5k Training/Updates!

It's been 9 weeks of training for the 5k coming up in just 2 weeks! This past week, I ran the trails 3 times, and the runs all went pretty well. I'm hoping to shave off a few minutes from last year's race. Wish me luck!

The weight loss has been very blah lately. Losing small numbers, gaining small numbers. I haven't been giving it my all, but I also haven't given up. This week, I'm really focusing on getting in more fruits and vegetables, drinking more water, and eating less (crap) snacks.

My lack of working out is also a big factor. Over the summer, I was working out 5-6 days per week. These past few weeks, I've been at 2-3. I'm searching for that balance of food/workout that will help me continue to lose weight. I have to teach science once per week starting soon, and I have a field that I have to go to once per week starting next week. My schedule is only going to get busier, so I need to start working harder to find that balance.

I'm about 10 pounds away from goal and these last 10 have been so hard to lose!

I bought 2 pairs of jeans--one size smaller than I was! Woot!
