            This is my last week of the Burn phase of Chalean Extreme. I reset my ticker thanks to a huge gain over the last couple of months, and am weighing each day & journaling. Hopefully that'll help.
 I'm not going to earn my new haircut and purple highlights by the date of the Third Eye Blind concert though 0 0

            I think you should get the purple highlights whenever you earn them, bookworm, concert or no.
 I took today as a rest day because it was in the 40s this morning and all I packed were shorts and tanks. Shooting for 7 miles tomorrow but will probably be a lot of walking.
 Hope everyone has a great 4th!0

            Oh, I'm getting those highlights for sure! In the spring, I was just hoping I could sport them at the concert I told my husband he didn't have to worry about any crash diets or excessive workouts so I could lose these 20 pounds in 19 days. I haven't seen that band in 6 years, and I'm going to enjoy myself dangit!

 Rest day for me as well. My back is really snarly and it hurts to yawn or hiccup. I told my husband I was frustrated because I have stuff I want to do today. He said, and I quote, "Tough s***." I guess I'm under orders to relax and slather myself with icy hot today, haha
 Do you normally go about 7 miles? Or is that just to make up for today? Either way, good luck!
 Enjoy your 4th!0

            Ugh it started pouring rain at mile 3 this morning. But I went 7.4 miles total! I don't mind getting wet but way colder here than I'm used to. Training for a half marathon so that is the longest run I've done so far!! Doing a 10k next weekend with my sister in Florida so will miss this chilly weather then.
 Hope your back lets you work out again soon bookworm. I know how frustrating it is to be sidelined.
 Happy 4th of July everyone!0

            That is an amazing run! Good for you. It sounds like you've got that 10k all under control!0

            No workout today I really wanted to; I was dressed and everything. My back hurt when I was putting my shoes on. "I'll push through," I thought. Then I sneezed. And swore. I knew then Week 4, workout 3 was not to be. So, here's my stuff for the Burn Phase. I'm starting Push (fewer reps & even heavier weights!) on Monday. I'll make up today's at the end or else just get it next round. I'm sure this won't be my last time I really wanted to; I was dressed and everything. My back hurt when I was putting my shoes on.
