25 Minutes--News Flash

This morning I ran the C25K Week 6 Day 3 run and I did it ! I ran for 25 minutes without stopping. 25. minutes. without. stopping!!!! Week 7, starts on Wednesday and calls for a repeat of today's session all three days. And I can do this!

End Notes

It's almost the end of my day and I just wanted to check in. I had the children today and we had fun, as always. E and I planted out a few flats of impatiens while J was napping. She was very intrigued by all the worms.

I made an old WW standby, Chicken Piccatta, for dinner. We had it with brown rice and spinach aglio e olio with a splash of lemon and toasted pine nuts. We went to the gym for an hour after dinner.

Tomorrow is C25K Week 6 Day 1. It looks doable and I'll get it done early, before a late morning dentist appointment. Our son and his wife gave us tickets to The Mikado for Christmas. It's tomorrow night at Wolf Trap. It should be fantastic. I'm going to put together a gourmet WW picnic to eat "on the lawn" before the performance.

I noticed something today. A good thing. My wedding and engagement rings are starting to spin on my finger. My fingers must be getting skinny! Yay fingers. Now for the rest of my body

Oh, and I forgot to post this yesterday. I lost .6 at my WI yesterday. Remember, I'm a slow loser, so this is good news. More than two sticks o' butter.

I did it!

Today's C25K run (week 5 day 2) called for a five minute warmup, an eight minute run, a five minute walk, another eight minute run, and then a cool down five minute walk. And I survived! I did the whole thing, plus added several extra minutes and did a five minute run at the end. Yay me. The next run (Wednesday) calls for a twenty minute run--without stopping! Yikes.
