WIW – This is unacceptable

Today: 191.6

out of control.

I hated 90% of the pictures taken of me this weekend. I feel fat and slow. I’m “fine” with my half marathon time, but carrying around 10lbs more than the last few races I’ve done didn’t help. Meanwhile yesterday marked 2 years since I ran the LA marathon and was in the best shape of my life and weighed ~175 pounds. 

I hate how lax I am. I hate how much I want to keep my weight under control and yet I feel so out of control sometimes. 

My appetite is currently sidelined by a cold and I hope next week to reboot INSANITY. Next week I’ll also hear if I got into to NYC Marathon – which both excites and terrifies me. 

March 21st is 2 days away. It marks the equinox and the start of spring. It is also the 1st day of the astrological year. AKA sounds like a great place to start with a clean slate and see how much progress I can make by the start of summer! 

::I believe in a sound mind, a sound body, and a spirit that is not afraid::

Solid race. Felt pretty strong until about mile 10 when I really got tired.

I did get to see VeggieLife on the course! I also saw the Internet cheering around mile 9.5, some LI friends around 11, and my bestie and her bf as I finished.

Starting the race in Central Park was electric, but leaving the park and running down 7th avenue through Times Square was surreal!!

Now it’s brunch and green beer time!!
