Mary, Mary--congrats and how awesome that Clarissa is sponsoring you!
Josie--I actually like to pack, move and unpack. I start packing early, label every box with what room it is going to in the new place and what's in it. Insane, huh?
Patty-awesome workout. If you can't get a physical work out in while you take care of that blood clot, consider spending more time on t.com--visitng forums and blogging with other people! It's a great way to stay on track!
Jami--about a mile and a half into my run this morning I came two stairs and it's like a little Jami was sitting on my shoulder say "do stair repeats" and so I did...I went up and down 6 times--I think that equals 12 flights---6 up and 6 down? Anyway, it was awesome! When I came back that way, it was at about 8.5 miles so I only went up and down twice!!
Brett-I usually still get up real early on a day off but since I went to bed at 2:30a I didn't set an alarm so I finaly rolled out of bed at 8:15a----felt like I missed 1/2 the day! LOL! But the day is still young and I have lots I want to do!
Lori and Mellie--I had insomnia years ago and never want to go through that again. I think my problem last night was that I was sooooo looking forward to having today off (no work and no husband at home--my time!) that I couldn't sleep. Silly, I know...it's happened before. I'm like a little kid waiting to open presents on Christmas morning!!
FOOD:
M1: protein bar, apple and gatorade (immediately following my exercise...)
M2: cottage cheese and fresh strawberries and blueberries
M3: protein shake and special K crackers
M4: probably grilled chicken salad..not sure yet but we have good eats available and I'm going grocery shopping today
M5: banana bread with fresh strawberries and blueberries
M6: nothing---I won't be up long enough today for 6 meals!
EXERCISE:
Despite sleeping strugles the past two nights I ran 10.08 miles this morning! I selected a relatively flat run along the Erie Canal. There are a few hills and some steps. After my iPod said "You have reached your goal of 10 miles" Lance Armstrong's voice came on and said "Congratulations on your longest run yet!" At first I thought I was hallucinating and then I realized he is programed in the Nike Plus! My pace was 10:54. I burned over 1100 calories. I think I'm in SHOCK that I ran 10 miles!!! I better get up from this computer before my quads atrophy in the sitting position!!!!
I'll check back later tonight (unless my legs just collapse and I sleep where I land--sort of like a cat does!)!!!
HAPPY FRIDAY!
Love-Vicki
