Finally!

I've been in a bit of a rut for the last few months. I've been running, and running, and running, but there have been way to many days where I feel like I'm running out of steam!

My eating habits for the last several months have been atrocious. I haven't truly pushed myself on my week day runs. I have walked more than I care to share. I lost my main running partner for the time being to an injury, thankfully I run with a group and I have another running buddy that paces near me, although I'm certain she is much faster than me.

I've been toying with some crosstraining, because I signed up for the Rock'n'Roll marathon in Savannah, GA in November. Yes, the FULL marathon, not half. I've started cycling more, but I've been inconsistent, until last week. I put in a good solid week of training and I must say, it paid off!

This morning's 4 miles were some of the best I've done in a very long time. My fourth mile was my second fastest mile. I also received a very nice compliment regarding my improvement from one of the more experienced runners in the group. I'm so excited to keep crosstraining and working hard to see the results.

New gadget! Light from Road ID, love this little light. Super bright and light.

One year running anniversary is just around the corner. July 4, 2011 I started the couch to 5k app and haven't taken more than a short week off, due to an injury, since! That is a big deal for this reformed couch potato.

Happy Running!
