Returning to the gym after a week off went as good as could be expected. From Sunday, June 23 – Saturday, June 29 I ran around 25 miles. Getting back to weights was a little hard. The other thing I struggled with all week was eating, I was constantly hungry and was having hard not eating everything in sight.
I did not make it to the marathon training group due to a 5K on Saturday morning. The 5K went well my time was 20:15 I am still not sure I how I completed in that time but I did. My biggest complaint about the course was that there was no water stops and I did not bring my water belt, so I was greatly dehydrated afterwards.
This week I am trying to focus on staying hydrated and on getting back on a solid weight training schedule, along with running. I am also trying to get my eating under control.
In terms of weight I still have not stepped on the scale but I feel like I am starting just maintain and not lose and I need to get to losing again.
You can do this Amy! I admire your persistence and you “not gonna quit” mentality. And 20 minutes on your run? Dang girl! That is impressive! I look forward to following you on your journey 🙂
