Tomorrow IS HERE!

so, Tomorrow is the bid day!

I am really nervous about the run, I guess its because its not a charity one and I feel like its just going to be real runners.

I am trying to focus on the fact that by 10 a.m. it will all be over with. I have this visual in my head of everyone atanding at the finish line hanging out, laughing and eating apples and banannas, showing off their medals and then suddently they turn their heads and look at me dragging myself in. They are all in shock that their is still one more number coming in. ahhh... I cant get the images off my head, but since this is my first run I will not be embarrased to be the last one. I mean, I guess its kind of expected since I am not a runner. I guess the main thing that scared me was the email that was sent out Wednesday reminding us of the race. It said that the trail was "challenging" if its challenging for a regular runner I can't even imagine how its going to be for me. The sad thing is that 4 years ago I was able to run the trail with no problems... ahhh its soooo scary.... I can't even jog a whole mile without stopping, but my goal is to be able to do it again ONE DAY!

Well, I am going to focus more on my timing then anything. My lovely husband has already signed me up for a 5k on May 1st and I have another one on May 19th, so my goal is to improve my timing per mile. So, I should see the results as i keep doing it.

I had my weekly weight-in.... and... well I went up a bit, but its understandable since I had a burger and Pizza this week.. (yeah I Know, Which made me feel horrible knowing I was eating bad right before the run..) Well here are the Numbers.. Well Ill let you know where I started first.

Mar 17 = 96.6 Kg - BMI 35.7
Mar 24 = 95.2 Kg - BMI 35.1
Apr 02 = 95.3 Kg - BMI 35.2

My first main goal is to bring My BMI to under 30 which will take me off the Obese bracket...

GO ME!...

I am sure the run will let me know in what kind of shape I am in. I will step it up next week. I need to loose 2lbs before next Fri.

Ok, Thats enough for today, I have to go buy some running clothes for tomorrow. I will update my results Later...

  1. Don't you hate the word "obese"?? They could have come up with a better sounding word..

    Wow, two more 5k's after this one! That's great! I was really worried I'd be last too but I wasn't! I'm sure you'll do great. I'd love to get my time lower each time too. You'll have to let us know how it goes! :)
