Where Have I Been....?

This seems to be the question of the moment for my blogging. Well, August just was a busy mess. What can I say! We had lots of out of town guests, a trip to Arizona, 2 kids starting school and I also started school. Anyway...blogging hasnt been a priority. Unfortunately due to some of the houseguests, I didnt do very well this month with my eating plan. Luckily the damage was minimal and fixable so I am trying not to get too upset about it but it has been very difficult getting back in the game with my food. I also let my running slip and fell behind on my half marathon training program by 3 weeks! Ugh....its OK though. Instead of increasing my mileage by a mile each week I am increasing it by 1.5 miles and this way I will be able to get a 14 mile run in 2 weeks before the big race. This makes me feel great! In fact tonight I completed a 7 miler! Im so excited that I am searching for a local 10k to enter....I need some racing experience under my belt before November and now that I know I can run a 10k....I may as well do it!

So, thats the update....making progress even though sometimes it is slow, at least it is progress and that is what counts!
