Chug chug chugging along!

Been a while since I've updated here hasn't it? But not because I've been doing poorly. In fact things are swimming along quite nicely! My 26th birthday was Aug 11th and I did my first 5 mile training run that morning! I went to my parent's beach house for the weekend, and actually woke up early to go on my run Sat morning. Still, I overindulged at my party (and with cake and chinese the next week) so I'm holding steady at 150.

I think some of that is water weight though as I'm supposed to start my period in a couple days. So after that's all over I'm hoping I'll be back at 147.

This weekend I've got a 6 mile training run to go on. Eee! My longest run yet. I'm really really hoping I can run the whole thing. I think around 7 miles I might need to take a couple walking breaks, but we shall see. If I do 6 miles, I will be very excited. :)

I'm thinking about going dry until my race. The problem is that I've got 2 weddings in the middle and it will be difficult to pull that off. We shall see. I'm going to have to be really careful in order to plan in my long runs as well. It's so hard when long runs are on the weekend--but when I'm not traveling that really is the best time. Argh.
