So I received three compliments this week. One of the guys told me I was looking good, he told me to not let it get to my head lol. My trainer said to me that he feels so proud every time I walk past him in the gym. He says he boasts because I’m a product of his work. Last night one of the ladies told me that I look good and to keep up the great work. Comments like this inspire me to stick to my 5 days a week until I have the perfect beach body that I am hoping for. My ultimate goal is to look amazing naked. I’m not quite where I want to be but I have no doubts that I will be walking passed the mirror soon with a huge grin on my face.

Thought I would share my week with you guys this morning

    Nice. My gym peeps didn't seem much over the last month, because I was out of town, and mostly running. One of my trainers and one of my regular sparing partners commented that I looked really good and like I'd leaned out. However, the trainer also said, in a thick Russian accent, "Look in shape, but where is it?" I.e. if you look so fit, why are you sucking so bad? So I guess aesthetics and performance don't always match up.

    Just run slower. You'll be surprised how far you can run. A lot of people try to run a mile at a 6 minute pace right off the bat, and they thinkt hey can't run, but they really just need to learn how to pace.

    I will take your advice. I normally try at 5 mph I'll try at 4.5 and then work my way up to 5. I also need to focus on breathing right. I tried couch to 5k twice, but never completed. I think I'm a try it again and really commit this time
