You know those rare days where you feel you could conquer the world? Yesterday was one of those, I had an awesome day at work were things actually got accomplished and I didn't feel I was spinning my wheels, got away at 3:30 to go with my son to the Y to workout, did a three mile treadmill workout which progressed from a 13:30 to a 9:50 pace which is not really ever been logged in my running book; since my trainer/daughter told me that spiking your heart rate burns fat better than an even monotonous pace I decided to break down each mile to three pace levels( 3/10's 13:30 fast walking pace, 6/10's 12:30 jogging pace, 1/10 9:50) heart rate went between 155-166. I actually didn't think I had it in my to run at all any more, I just haven't felt it since my full marathon in April 2010. I hope this is a turning point in my attitude and mental struggle to be the fit Amy I was three years ago, it is so hard to maintain workouts and healthy eating in this hectic and fast track world.
Don't know when I'm getting on the scale to see any results, the scale has never been my friend, it always betrays me and destroys a perfectly good day, so maybe I just need to do tough love and keep it out of my life for a while....it's like a train wreck, you just can't help but look.
