Training

I've still been training. I've started to like running. Not in love yet but I will get there. I do feel guilty when I don't run.  I love to sweat. Only when I'm working out. Lol  My pace went from a 16 min mile to a 12 min! That's exciting for me. That's when I'm outside. When it's controlled on a treadmill it's slower I went from a 20 min mile to a 17 min. I'm ok w that. The point is to not get tired. I'm working on it.   See my pace! Lol. 

Focused

So today I decided I want to do the marathon for next year. Half marathon.  Today I ran w my brother. It was fun. Usually on a treadmill I do a mile in 20 min. Today I did my first mile at 16 min and second mile at 18 min. I will get stronger. Then he had me jumping on stuff lol.  We go to our Momma's house and they grilled.  So good. It's better when you don't have to cook it yourself lol. After lunch. Phillip and Angie walked a mile in the neighborhood  Dinner tonight was kale, baby portobellos and bell pepper with tofu noodles. So good.  Today was a good day! 

Houston Chevron Marathon

Can I tell you how inspired I am by my friends. I love them. Cindy and Karla ran 26 miles!!! Melissa did the half marathon. 13 miles. So amazing!  They are like my second set of sisters.  Their parents are so proud.  This is a screen shot from the video I took. Bryan helped push Cindy. She never gave up. Her boys ran the end w her. Cindy had a baby 6 months ago!  This is Karla. So focused. So proud of them. Melissa finished before we got there. I don't have a pic of her.  Have I mentioned how proud I am?
