I ran!

Today I got my butt out of bed at 6 am and went for a run. Yay, me! I have been having trouble getting myself out of bed since the birth of my second child many moons ago and now that the kids are out on summer break then I decide to start running early in  the morning? I am so demented. Went for 4.13 miles today and averaged about a 12 min pace. That is spectacular considering the fact that I have barely run since my half marathon at the end of October last year. Totally ridiculous! I am determined, however, to get in shape and be smokin' hot. That last part will probably never happen regardless of how fit I am but I'll take being in shape. I need to try to eat clean because I'm gaining back all the weight that I lost. I am up about 6 lbs now and I hate it! I want to lose weight not gain it and my current habits are not permitting that. So, I will try to exercise more. I still have much to do before I get into the habit.

I didn't exercise yesterday so I ended up with 3 days off instead of just 2 like the BR plan calls for so this week I am going full force and I'll have to work it out somehow. I might not get in all 5 days of workouts but I'm going to try my best. I think I can at least do something. I also did a few sets of body weight resistance but I'm sure it's not nearly enough. I really should start doing a set from BR each day on top of my run. I'll start that tomorrow. I know that sounds like a cop out but I will do it. Tomorrow is another day. Here's hoping I keep going!
