Running Totals for 01 Dec 09

Well it has been a little over a week since the last time that I wrote. I have had quite a nasty bug that I haven't been able to shake. But it is finally loosening its death grip on me so I can get back to work. I haven't ran a whole heck of a lot these past couple of weeks. I have gotten in a couple of runs here and there thanks to the FBC. Yesterday was the big day for my PT test which I passed with flying colors. I think with my score I should of got an 84.6 which is really good for someone with a 38 inch waist. I was super pleased with my mile and a half run which I finished in 10 minutes and 32 seconds. That is the fastest I have ever ran it and I finished 4th out of 70 people who tested that day. Needless to say I was pretty stoked about that. I weighed in at 245 lbs. which is something I am still working on. I have another 40 lbs to lose, at least that is my goal. I have to be under or at 220 lbs. by Heather's birthday or it's off to the girly spa for the day. I still have 4 months to get there. I never thought the 1000 miles was going to be the problem, it's taking off the weight that kills me. Anyways today I got in 3 workouts and my last longer run before the Marathon on Sunday. Heather and I got in our 2 mile walk this morning. Then at FBC (I am still attending these classes because they are such a superior workout compared to what we do at PT in our flight) I did some work with the 13.2 lb medicine ball plus got in another 1.5 miles. And tonight to finish off the day I got in 6.83 leisure miles. Just a nice little run around what I would like to do my marathon pace in which is about 10 minute miles or around there. All in all I got in 10.33 miles for the day and it is my last day of doing that many miles. I have a couple more runs scheduled for this week but nothing hardcore plus my walks with Heather. Should be pretty smooth. I still have to head to Naha and find where I have to pick up my packet on Saturday and figure out logistics for Sunday to get myself to the starting line. Well I am off to shower and then to bed. Good night everybody and JUST RUN!! Until next time...
