    Happy Sunday!!

    Cardio: Ran that Half-marathon like a boss (well, for me). New PR of 2:24:20. Smashed previous PR by 6 minutes, and was 14 minutes faster compared to last year on this course. Weather was perfect, and I was able to hit all my pace goals. That bridge is always tough, but I was able to fly on the down parts to more than make up for the slowdown heading up. What an awesome race. I love the Texas Bridge Series races. Going to do the series again next year!


    Food: enjoyed some extra food today!

    Happy Monday!
    @brandi way to go on the marathon!

    Weekend: no exercise just housework & some Xmas shopping done. Went to a restaurant for dinner last night. Seriously derailed, overate a lot of bread, dips, nachos, etc. I normally don't eat like this. I noticed I felt headachy & 'off' this morning, maybe my body rebelling the abuse?

    Today
    Ran a tabata class at lunch & going to Krav Maga tonight.

    Assessment: boneless pork chops tonight with rice & beans & a Greek salad. Calories under trying to undo yesterday's damage...

    Been running a lot and boxing and climbing a little. Mostly twice a day 5 miles runs. Two 5 mile runs, climbed, and did some fight training including judo throwing and boxing striking yesterday. Today I did my first 10 miles run and I surprised myself with a 9:30 pace... And the fact that it was easy.

    One maybe slight problem... My pee was brown this morning... Could be from whatever additive was in all the diet cranberry juice I've been drinking the past two days. Something to keep an eye on. I've also had extreme lower abdominal pains since my kayaking trip. Some kind of poisoning from the fish... Or the fruity cocktails?

    Hi, everyone! Thanks for the congrats on the half-marathon. Just checking in: I'm taking a few days off from exercise while I spend the week prepping for a large art show this weekend. Overate a bit Monday and Tuesday, but back on track today.

    The rest of you keep rocking the exercise!

    Be vigilant with that Robyn, nothing to mess around with! Sounds like you might need a trip to the doc!!!
