Exciting news: I’ll be starting my new job on Monday. What that means for my running/cleansing/blogging endeavors … well, hopefully not much. But it does mean I’m going to have to make some adjustments for lack of time.
To recap: had a 10-mile run on Sunday. Was determined to keep up with the group. And I did! It was a good running day (meaning I managed to – mostly – keep my brain quiet and running was much less of a struggle). I felt GREAT afterward.
Here’s an amazing tree I saw on my walk on Monday (felt like I just had to move, ya know?) These are all in bloom now, and it’s truly amazing:
This coming weekend is a 19-mile weekend: I’ll be running 4 miles on Saturday, and 17 on Sunday. Thankfully, since I do have a job starting Monday, I felt comfortable enough to invest in much-needed new running shoes. These are of the motion-control variety, which – as I understand it – provide maximum support. Hopefully they’ll aid with my various injuries.
Cleanse world: finally getting a bit better about separating my carbs and my proteins, I think. Starting my mornings with Chai is still very good. Also getting better about remembering my nightly herbs (mornings haven’t been a problem), but last night I just crashed on the sofa, so neglected to take my herbs on my zombie-shuffle to bed. Did a ton of juicing last night, though, so must replenish fruit/veggie supply today or tomorrow (still have juice in the fridge). Am ready for flush day tomorrow.
Overall, feeling very good. Energy levels very good overall. I think I’ve noticed some shrinkage in the body-area (I think my face is looking a bit slimmer, but I know from how various pairs of pants are fitting that my booty/hip/thigh areas are definitely decreasing). Haven’t weighed self yet. Have a bit of a fear relationship going on with the scale at this point, I think, since for years it’s only lead to disappointment.
That’s all for today. Next week: adventures in cleansing/training for a marathon in an office …
