That's right less than nine minutes per mile today! I have to ask my running guru/friend about interval training since after doing it only once it made such a difference. I got on the treadmill today and again my old pace seemed sort of slow. I decided to play a game with myself and change the speed every quarter mile up or down, mostly at a pace of 8 minutes and change. I can not believe that I ran my first three miles at a less than 9 minute pace, I went easy on the fourth mile. I'm really proud of myself. I think this is huge improvement.
Hopefully the piggy inside me didn't cause too much damage this weekend. Valentine's cookie, need I say more. They were delicious. Followed by Super Bowl food, summer sausage and cheddar cheese for Green Bay. No idea what was supposed to be Pittsburgh food. I also did not get my weekend run in AGAIN. I should just amend the training schedule. Despite my cheats/treats people continue to notice my weight loss. My daughter's dance teacher said, "It looks like you are melting away!" Another mom in my daughter's gymnastic class commented that she can't believe I lost all the baby weight already. I am so proud of losing all the baby weight before the baby is even 5 months old. Toot! Toot! That would be my own horn that I'm honking.
My second pair of "reward" pants are too big! Not sure if its just those pants or could it be that I am down to a size 8?? Would love to be back in the single digits again. Looking forward to getting to my meeting on Wed to discuss/determine my goal weight.
