I ran the Hale Center Theater 10K that I think was really only 6 miles. Still my time was not impressive. I didn't warm up much so the first two miles felt too fast. Then Marie got ahead of me on the downhill and she's such a good uphill runner and I knew I wouldn't catch her going up. I sort of gave up on beating her and took second. I won some tickets to the plays which was nice.
I could feel the effects of the three cupcakes I ate the night before at our Halloween party and think I need to go back to eating more healthy. I really watched what I ate the 6 weekks before the St. Geroge Marathon and, although I didn't lose any weight because I hate to be hungry and still ate a lot, I felt good because of it. Sunday at dinner my cousin said she's thinking about not eating any sweets for the month of November. I think that sounds like a good idea. I'm not a candy eater, but I really love my home made baked goods.
My whole body also feels a little out of wack, like I'm tight everywhere. I don't feel as bad as I did a couple of weeks ago, but I'm still not 100%. I think I need to do some more work on that to get everything working well again. |
