Wednesdays are traditionally my day to report to you all how I've been doing on the fitness (and to a lesser degree lately) weight loss fronts. I'm happy to report that I am healthy, happy and at my lowest weight EVER. So close to a new decade that it has me wondering whether I should try and get there, or just stick with the status quo and see what happens. I don't really care if I get any smaller from a number on the scale standpoint, but also know that a couple more pounds gone would probably look pretty good on me. IDK. I'm conflicted.
Fitness-wise I'm also conflicted. For the first time in over a year, I am not training for a race. I have a couple on the distant horizon, but nothing I've actually registered for. I'm thinking about a local 10k for 2 weekends from now, but made the mistake of looking at last year's results and my competitive nature got the best of me. I didn't sign up. I know my pace shouldn't matter and everyone tells me it's a great race, but to me, with as hard as I've been training, knowing that I'm really not getting much faster is very frustrating. Granted, I also know I can't compare a 10k with a 10 miler or 15 miler. Still. Frustrated and conflicted.
I did just sign up for The Sisterhood of the Shrinking Jeans' newest challenge. Go here to check it out. Because my school schedule (I'm taking 2 grad classes this month) this summer is going to be insane, I won't be participating from a team standpoint but will definitely be getting in as many boot camp workouts as I can and will cheer you all on from here.
There you have it - a Wednesday check-in in a nutshell. Do you have any fun races coming up? What is your favorite race distance?
