And the Slump Continues...

It's a little sad when Wapella is the highlight of the week

Date & Distance Ran:
Mar. 11 - 3.40 miles
Mar. 16 - 4.47 miles
Mar. 17 - 4.21 miles


Week 7: 12.08 miles
Total: 109.32 miles
Completed: 13.4%


Week 7 Measurements:
Weight: 201.2 lbs (-0.6lbs, -7.0lbs total)
Body Fat: 23.0% (+1.7%, -2.1% total)


These last few weeks have totally sucked. I just couldn't seem to get my sorry but onto the treadmill in the mornings before going school X to student teach, and by the time I got home I was too exhausted to even try.
I know something will change, and it will change starting Monday, March 18th, 2013!
I can't remember if I wrote it here or not, but I refuse to say tomorrow because tomorrow never comes.
Anyways, I have one week left to go before spring break, and I know spring break will be a write off for running because I will be at my cabin (although I will be getting my exercise on the ski hill and outside, it just won't be counting towards my distance). I will probably take my distances down a bit this week so I can cut my running time to 30 or 35 minutes instead of the 40 minutes I am doing now, and give myself one less excuse to not run.

Can't wait to get to the lake in a week! Woot Woot!

1/8th of my Time is Past

87 mile mark in Moosomin 

Date & Distance Ran:
Mar. 6 - 3.90 miles
Mar. 7 - 3.75 miles
Mar. 8 - 3.88 miles

Week 6: 11.53 miles
Total: 97.24 miles
Completed: 11.9%

Week 6 Measurements:
N/A

This was another bad week for me. With getting assignments done last minute and getting ready for student teaching I didn't seem to have much energy left to run in the mornings. But... I am out student teaching now so no more excuses!
I didn't even get measurements for this week as I usually do them on Sunday morning, and it is now Monday night, so I will just wait until next week.
If you have thought about the numbers, I am 11.9% complete the distance, but 12.5% of the time has been used. I am slightly behind right now, but will be getting back on track starting Tuesday, March 12th, 2013 (I refuse to say tomorrow, because tomorrow will never come!)

A Picture Says 1000 Words...

BOO to this weeks progress!
Date & Distance Ran:
Feb. 26 - 4.09 miles
Mar. 3 - 4.21 miles

Week 5: 8.30 miles 
Total: 85.71 miles
Completed: 10.5%

Week 5 Measurements:
Weight: 201.8 lbs (-2.0lbs, -6.4lbs total)
Body Fat: 21.3% (-2.3%, -3.8% total)


So this week was almost a write off for progress on my run. Between trying to get all the assignments done that I've known about for the last 2 months (and procrastinated just as long for), and coming down with some sort of minor flu that took me out for 3 days, and taking Sunday off after a VERY exerting Saturday of tobogganing and Snowmobiling, it didn't leave me with many days left to 'hit the pavement'.
