Goals for July 2008

July already here. Half of 2008 gone, didnt even come to know how!!And less than 4 months of the marathon!

Almost was going to miss the session today. Got a call this morning about cousins visiting tomorrow. Thankfully mom and sis will prepare the dinner, and they will spend the night at my place. So spent the morning cleaning the house, actually just changed the linens, some dusting, picked up the clothes the 2 girls had spread on the floor and will do the bathrooms tomorrow. Good thing was off today from work, and husband too , took the girls out for lunch to Panera Bread-yummy! and signed up the 6yo for Karate-her newest passion.In all this movement covered about 9000 steps so was going to take a break , but better sense prevailed and did my speed session.

Was thinking, what good is this doing for me??I barely complete 2 miles in 32 min, after huffing and puffing at 5.5mph. And am unable to run at even 4.2mph for more than 2 min. Am planning to go back on the C25K plan. Completed it earlier in the year and then started doing the r/w method to cover more distance, but now my stamina to run for even 2-3 min at a time is gone. Have to go back to the kindergarten of running!

Goals for July:
1. Be verrry regular with all the workouts as per Galloways plan.
2. Be very regular with the LSD- just Have to do those.
3. Be consistent with stretching and icing after the runs- having a twinge in the middle toe of left foot- hope its not anything serious.
4. Try, Try, and Try again to lose just 5 pounds, only 5. How will I do it,? Go back to the basics- keep a food journal, and 3 meals with 2 snacks a day, no 2nd helpings.

Life is good.
