I hopped on the treadmill at my good 'ole YMCA this morning and ran 6.2 miles you guys!! It took me an hour, but I did it. This is only my second attempt to run for this long. I did it once before, almost two months ago now. At that point, I ran 5.7 miles, and I REALLY had to push myself just to get through the entire hour. This time, I felt much stronger, much more fit, AND, I was able to run an additional half of a mile! : ) I had such a large sense of accomplishment when I had finished. I did what I had never done before... ran over six miles. ME, Kristina. Not the skinny chick that's only twenty years old and has maybe 11% body fat, but ME. I'm very proud of myself, and the progress that I've made. It makes me wonder just how far I would be able to run. HMMMMM?.....Friday: date night at the Y. I stopped journaling my calories after lunch. : ) I didn't work out today.
Saturday: I didn't journal today either, but I'm estimating now about 2,000 calories. I ran for an hour, burning 915 calories. No weights today.

Ooooh, I'm sensing a marathon in this woman's future.
GREAT job! I can't imagine running that long, but then I'm guessing you couldn't imagine it this time last year either, and now look at you!
