Run, Forrest, Run!

I can't believe it has been five days since my last blog! Lots of food has passed by this face in five days with the Superbowl last weekend. I ate some great food on Sunday watching the game but why am I surprised when I feel gross after eating that crap? Pizza, spinach dip, beer...the list is ugly. I only feel good that Tim and I have started training for 5k races. We run in the evening on a running plan that helps new (or new this year!) runners not get injured. He holds the stopwatch and we run 3 minutes walk 2 minutes, repeat, for 20 minutes. When he runs without me he runs 5 minutes and walks 2 minutes. Our first race is in March and the second in June. My district manager has run a marathon for which I hold her in high regard yet can safely say I will NEVER submit my soul to such gruel. I continue to lose a pound or two a week but tend to indulge in samples now that we are trying coffee three times a day at work. I was thinking tonight as I ran, "I may just have to run to The City and back to burn off my sampling today"! Double dang. Tomorrow is a 4am day and I will bring my yogurt, berries and acai juice for the blender come 4:15 am and stay away from the samples!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yeah... what is acai juice? I've heard of it from other people but have no idea what it is. I always hear that it is full of antioxidants.
    You might find you get addicted to running races once you do one. As painful as the full marathon was, it was totally worth it be have that thrill of crowds of people cheering you on. Plus, I get to brag about it for the rest of my life :~)
