This is how is all ended!!!!!
In my earlier post I was confident that I could run the whole race even if it was at a slow pace, this was not the case!!! The mere fact that it was held at a Ski Resort should have told me otherwise from the beginning. Our first, "hill" out of the starting gate was a really big "SLOPE". We started out running but by the time we reached the top we were walking. After that we ran, walked, ran, walked. We did it as a group with the exception of the two fairly clean guys on the end, they did it in about 40 minutes, the rest of us our time was right under and hour, my official time was 59.45!!! My husband looked up my results the following day I was 7064 out of 8883!!! I was not LAST!!! I was very sore the next day but we had alot of fun!! My sister and brother came to cheer me on along with 2 other friends, all of them are talking about doing it next year!!!! Nice to know even full of mud I can bring inspiration to them!!!!
My plan on Monday was to get organized, making meal plans then making food for the week. That plan fell by the wayside because my friend from out of town that came to watch the race stayed an extra day. Much more fun to hang with a friend than plan meals. I did plan my food for yesterday and today, so far so good for the post part. I am trying to follow the Weight Watchers plan on my own. I have used the program before and had success. I am not a fan of the leaders at the center I went to. I could switch centers but I don't want to have to drive more than across town, I know I wouldn't go.
Tonight is the first time I have worked out since the race, I did 65 minutes on the elliptical. I plan to go tomorrow and the weekend, nothing on Friday I have a 16 hour shift at work!!! ICK!! Onward with the workouts and downward for the scale please!!!
