Doing a mud run when I am sidelined by a little rain?

Okay, today was not a "little" rain. And it's winter still, technically, and cold. So a mud run in June sounds delightful. But training is hard when I really only have 4 days a week to work out. If I miss one, fine. If I miss 2; then I'm going an entire week between runs, and that is not good. I hesitate to progress to weeks 4 and 5 when my runs aren't as frequent as they should be. I did decide to move to week 4, but I am going to stay here until the weather starts getting better. I have nowhere to go to run indoors; not that I'd want to, but it would help keep me from making excuses for not running when I could otherwise be.

Next rant: Fuck food. Fuck it so much.

I am trying, trying, trying to stick to this "thin mentality" thing where you eat what you are craving when you're hungry, and stop eating when you are no longer hungry. Sounds simple, except for when you grew up in a family that doesn't let a little thing like "not being hungry" keep us from eating. So cleaning my plate was always a big deal. Makes it hard to change. I am trying, and getting better, but today I had a massive slip-up and feel fucking terrible. Physically. Like, my stomach is going to explode. What the hell is wrong with me? I was full before I had even finished half of my meal. Did I stop and think how nice it would be to save the rest of that samich for later? Hell no! Tomorrow is a new day, and there's always wine for dinner.

Anyways, I hope there were enough f-bombs for +Edward Maglott and I hope +Katy Vance has some inspiring words for me. Because I have no other readers ;)

Harry potter keeps me going

I just re-read my post from the beginning of the year, and I think I have done well so far. I have Harry potter on the iPod, and that motivates me to run even when it is 20 degrees out. Still not running in the rain, but I see nothing wrong with that.

Now I have awesome new hair, a new pot to cook in, and a fat hound dog that really needs walking! She's always been fat and needed walks, but she's getting fatter and now it's more serious. So, yay, resolutions! I am still trying!
