LET ACCOUNTABILITY REIGN

It is actually Friday!

Ok, well, tomorrow is the day. I officially joined Weight Watchers. Tomorrow I will go to my first meeting. I will be weighed officially...joy. I will feel the pressure to conform to the program and lose the weight. I know I will. I was on Weight watchers for a month or two before, years ago, and it did work. Can't remember why I left but while I was on it and for some time after I lost and kept off 13 lbs. So, let accountability reign! I'm actually kind of excited.

Ran the 5 Points of Life half marathon last weekend. It was a beautiful day to run. Forgot to officially weigh before the race but I weighed the next day and was 179.  I came in at 2:23. I will add this to my graph. Now I officially have a 2017 marathon and half marathon to add to it. Hmm, gotta figure out how to  add it to a permanent spot on this blog. I'm such a computer know nothing :-(. But I'll figure it out.

I want to really focus on getting my half marathon times down over the summer. Provided I lose weight along the way it will be fun to see if I can get down to a 2 hour half. I also am working on getting into a really incredible relay. If things work out I will write about it later. But it takes place in September and there is a 10 minute per mile minimum pace and there are at least 10 miles/runner over three days so I really would need to work hard over the summer. Right now I can do about a 10:40/mile at that distance. But if I can get to a 2 hour half that would definitely take care of that issue as I need to keep up a 9:06/mile pace to do that.

Well, I gotta get my lazy butt ready for a run. I have been so lethargic this week for some reason and haven't exercised at all. I'm gonna force a run today and see if that kicks me out of this funk.
