I am really starting to get in to my morning jog. Not so much for the exercise or any of that, but more for the time I have to drift away mentally and think. Granted I usually feel pretty good afterwards. Today, like most days that I run, I spent thinking about my recent entry into college and what it means in my life, as well as about a close friendship I have. I don't even think I can remember all the specifics, but when I lose myself in thought, the run always goes fastest. That way, I don't end up thinking about every step I make, which generally makes for a pretty long run.
Today's run was my standard 1.6 miles to the end of the block and back. I got pretty tired about two-thirds the way through but still didn't stop. I completed that distance in 28:40, which isn't too bad. I did pick up the pace quite a bit the last block as well, just to push myself some.
Still weighing in at 256. Not that I am not eating right or anything, I think my body is just catching up a bit with all the weight loss.
Tomorrow, I should complete my second award in the presidential challenge (the Bronze Medal). After completing the Active Lifestyle program a couple of months ago, I have continued to log my exercise into that journal as well as this one and have managed to accumulate enough time to qualify for the low-end award. Its nice to have an award to note my accomplisments.
