new leaf is turning over

so my bff and i ran this past Saturday - 4 miles!!! well, we didn’t run the WHOLE time, basically we’d run half the track and walk the other half since we are both novice runners and I didn’t want to kill her or myself by doing too much all at once. After we did our running we were going to just do one lap around to cool down, but did a whole lot more because the conversation was flowing and we were just enjoying the fresh air. Hence why we made it to 4 miles.

I am SO glad to have a companion to run with when they can. I’m going running tomorrow after work, hopefully with the fiance’ but if not i’ve got my trusty ipod to keep me company. Tomorrow also starts my weight watchers points again. I only do it m-f because I actually don’t eat as much on the weekends and it’s too hard trying to figure out what points things are if we go out. I just make sure to not eat anything too ridiculous.

So the new leaf is turning….I haven’t turned it totally over though because I haven’t yet done the diet and exercise. This week will be a good gauge. My goal is to run at the track at LEAST 2 times, hopefully 3+ but I figure start small and reach for big. I’ve got two  months to reach my mini goal of looking good in my halloween costume. After that my main goal is to be a beautiful bride!
