Women in Motion

I went to a seminar put on by BROOKs at our local running shop. It was great! I got a little mojo for my big Saturday run, and I bought a new - well fitting sports bra. I can't wait to try it out! I also met a girl who's looking for someone to run with - she belongs to a local run club, but she's slow like me... I am thinking about what to do post-marathon and this seems like a good way to maintain my base and hopefully get faster going into Tri season. Lots to think about / plan.

Yesterday I did cover my 3.5 mile hill course, but I took the dog. She's OK after the first mile when she doesn't have to stop and sniff and pee every other second..... you get the picture. I was just glad to have gotten outside - I was not overly motivated... Today was a cross training day - I did the elliptical for 30 minutes and then ran 1+ miles on the treadmill to test out the new bra - which, by the way, works wonderfully.

I am logging my food and will step on the scale every day for the next week . That is my goal. I know that with a little weekly tweaking, I'll be able to get my diet back on track and hopefully lose a few before the big day. Wouldn't it be great to be solidly in the 185 range? It would.

Hey, what bra is it? I'm always in need of a new sports bra!

It is a Brooks Pro Fit Sports Bra. $35 bucks, and like I said it works just great! I have a new favorite - good bye compression bras!
