A year in Review

Sunday 12/30/12

Yesterday's long run was 12 miles, in the snow.  It snowed only about 3 inches over night into Saturday morning.  It was still the better day to train.  Today is more cold and a little more windy.  The snow doesn't bother me.  In fact, when I first went out to run it was still snowing a bit and I actually enjoyed that.  I always have.  What I did not care for was that the bike trail had not been cleared off yet and part of Wildwood Park.  It was a little brutal on the ankles.  I am feeling a bit weak today.  It was a 12 mile run yesterday and it went much faster than I had anticipated it would.  Not literally but figuratively.  I estimated that it would take about 2 hours and 20 minutes to run it and my actually came in at 2:17.  I did really well for the conditions and mentally I was good.  The longer the runs get the more amazed I am at how my body is holding up to it.  I did go to the gym this morning, even though I should have rested.  But, in my defense I will not be able to go tomorrow and they are closed on Tuesday.  So, I will have a forced rest day.  Sigh...why do I not know how to let myself rest?

Of course I am thinking about the past year, it is the end of 2012.  It has been such an eventful and interesting year.  Some good, some not so good, and some things just are.  If I think about things in terms of accomplishments this year (large and small) here's what I come up with:

1.  I finished with the personal trainers certification
2.  I maintained my healthy weight
3.  I decided to and committed to running a marathon
4.  I finished a few household projects
5.  I made some new friends
6.  I read some great books.  Mostly fiction because I had been neglecting to read for fun for a long time.
7.  I paid off some bills
8.  I finally got that dental work done
9.  I improved my credit score, paid off my old car and got a new one
10.  I made a decision about my next career move
11.  I'm still deeply in love with my husband

That's just a short list of things I can come up with off the top of my head.  I am excited about 2013 and what will be happening in this new year.  My determination to get even better in the year to come is an energy that cannot be contained.  I am about to come apart at the seems with anticipation for what's next!

Willpower and Lists

Thursday 12/27/12

Christmas is over but there is still too much food at my house to to even think about getting back on track again.  2013 is going to be about Willpower for me.  I even just picked up a book at the library about  Willpower...hope it helps me stay away from the damn gingerbread cookies.  I ate 6 of them last night!  Not because I really wanted them, mostly just because they were there.  Major fail!  I feel terrible too.  Not the guilt factor so much but the physical heaviness and major slow down.  My muscles feel like they weigh a million pounds when I try to workout.  With as much as I have eaten, maybe they do weigh that much.  I haven't been on the scale but I can tell it's definitely going in the wrong direction!  Yikes! The one thing that I am doing right is sticking to my training schedule.  I even ran on Christmas Day.  4.6 miles to be exact.  I needed that.  I won't lie either, I was feeling pretty superior as I was out there running, knowing that very few people make a Christmas Day workout a priority.  I also got a run in today, in the snow.  Luckily we did not get as much snow as was predicted (highly unusual for our forecasters...NOT).  So, my midday run today was only slightly sloppy.  I had to pay attention to the slushy areas, they were a little slippery but overall it was a decent short run.  I don't mind the snow usually.  As long as it doesn't come with too much wind.  I also sent in my registration today for the race.  The price goes up on January 1.  I wanted to get mine in before the price increased.  Now I am 100% committed to finishing the race since I really hate to waste money.  There's no turning back now.

I have a new obsession.  It is with lists.  I am going to journal my way through 2013 using lists.  Lists of great songs that inspired me through my life, lists of places I'd like to visit (maybe with some pictures on that one too), lists of books I wanna read, movies that have impacted me, great one liners from those movies, moments that have changed the course of my life, people who have influenced me, lessons I've learned, funny-isms my kids have said, races I've run, etc...I've been a pretty avid journaler for about 8 years now but this year I want it to be a little more fun and a lot  more meaningful, instead of just me vomiting all my petty grievances on paper.  Hence, fun with lists is the theme for 2013.

So far, physically I am holding up pretty good with my training.  I do suffer from Restless Leg Syndrome and it seems to be plaguing me (and my poor husband) more than usual lately.  I was looking up some stuff on the Internet (because I have my Internet medical license you know) and found that magnesium and electrolyte deficiencies have been known contributors to RLS.  Hmmm, more Smart Water and Kelp for me.  Just kidding, almonds and cashews have a significant amount of magnesium too.  Let's see if I can get some natural relief.  I fear heavy medications because of the hangover effect of most of them.  I have to be alert and ready to go when I get up in the morning.  I have things to do and people to see!  Other than the RLS outbursts, my legs, hips and feet are holding up well under the training.  I start some strength training with Lindsay next week to improve my upper body and core.  I will get my eating back in line before then or paying for those personal training sessions will be a big waste of time and money.

'Twas the Week Before Christmas...

Thursday 12/20/12

...and all through the town, all the people were stirring and running about! Not really knowing where they are heading or what they are doing, they let out a big shout. Shouting at clerks, family and strangers. They have no idea how this could put them in danger!

So, you see, I have not blogged all week.  I would like to say that it was because of Christmas preparations but really I don't like Christmas that much and completed most of my shopping and decorating several weeks ago.  However, I have been busy...eating!  Yes, eating. Everything and anything.  The Christmas holiday certainly brings out the glutton in me.  I stopped tracking what was going into my mouth because it was not going to stop me in any case and because it just looked pretty ugly.  What I did do though was stay on target with my workouts this week and I bought some personal training sessions to begin on January 2nd.  I am going to take 2013 by storm but for the next couple of days I am going to eat, drink and attempt to be merry. 

I have lived in Toledo for nearly 4 years and have made some friends but this year has found me  making some deeper connections with people, particularly from my gym.  These have been the best friendships I have made, in my opinion.  They are the people who encourage me to be my best everyday and yet they still know how to have a good time.  I am grateful to have the caliber of friends that I do today.  I am looking forward to deepening those friendships  this next year too.  I am hoping to find time to arrange a biweekly or monthly women's get together to promote healthy living.  My vision is to share successes, failures, recipes, etc in an informal meeting either at someone's home or at a public venue like a coffee/tea house or other health conscious food business. 

I had so many opportunities for topics this week but am falling short on just about everything right now.  I have been so busy today tying up all of the loose ends before the kids returned from their dad's that now, at 8:17pm, I am a bit of coma toast, it seems.  I am definitely ready to end this holiday season and get back to the regularly scheduled program.  I have some ideas to take things to a "level 10" in the new year and I am excited to share more details with you, when I understand them all. 

I did train this week.  Running my regular 3 miles on Tuesday.  I missed a short run on Thursday.  It seems that the winter monsoons rolled into to Toledo on Thursday.  I took the day off of work to complete housework that I couldn't get done otherwise so there was a level of working out there.  Just no running that day.  I got a long run in on Sunday, 10 miles to be exact.  Surprisingly, I felt good till the last 2 miles and even then it was a struggle but not impossibly so.  I actually felt pretty good afterwards and was able to get to the gym this morning with very little difficulty.  I know as the mileage starts to increase the recovery time will be more imperative.  For now, I seem to be handling it all really well physically.  Mentally, I might be trying to doubt myself a little bit but I am talking back to that doubt and pushing myself to the next level.  I know I can do this.  I have accomplished so much in my life and overcome things that most people couldn't or wouldn't.  These are things that keep me moving toward my goals.

I also managed to get in 6 Extreme Results classes and 3 yoga classes.  This was good due to the 1,475,298 calories (approximation) that I ate this week.  I am cutting myself some slack, gonna finish out the year with little or no comprehension of calories consumed but then on January 2nd...it'll be on...like donkey kong!

Have a very Merry Christmas and don't worry about how far off the food wagon you fall this week.  Just remember to enjoy every morsel and know that the theme for 2013 is "No mercy and no giving up."

Weekend fun

Sunday 12/15/12

I had the best weekend I've had in I can't remember when!  Some of that was attributed to the power of social media.  Social media has allowed me to be involved and reconnect with people and things that I may not have otherwise.  I am so grateful to be living in this age of technology.  This got me thinking about those people who post things on FB about deleting their FB accounts or chastising others for spending so much time on FB (or Twitter).  These sites were designed to be SOCIAL media sites.  They are meant for people to connect, who normally wouldn't get the chance.  They are meant to remain in contact and up to date with people and to build a network of friends that can literally span the globe.  How cool is that?  I get so much support from my FB account.  I share with other people who have similar interests as I do and get those extra pushes of accountability too. 

So anyway, I got to spend Friday night with some friends from my hometown.  Particularly, my best friend.  We stayed up late, talked, laughed, shared.  It felt good to be around the people who know me best.  On Saturday, I got to run the Jingle Bell 5K with some new friends and spend time getting to know them afterwards.  What a wonderful Saturday.  Today I got up and ran 9 miles for my training schedule.  I won't lie, it kinda sucked a little.  I was super sore today for whatever reason but I was out there and I got it done.  My husband and I then took the dogs, along with another friend and his dogs, on a hike out by the lake.  It actually felt good to walk out some of the stiffness from that long run.  My husband and I did the grocery shopping, 4 stores, half my paycheck and 5 hours later there is plenty of things for my kids to complain about that they don't like.  Both yesterday and today I got a nap in and we made an awesome dinner tonight.  I'm now ready for my kids to come home from their dad's so we can get our selves ready to dive into the week before Christmas. 

Typically I am a solo runner.  I like to run alone, even in races.  This weekend, I stepped out of that comfort zone and ran with two other people for the Jingle Bell run.  It was fun to have a group to run with.  I enjoyed being there to encourage Allan towards his goal and to get to know McKenzie a little better.  These are friends that I made at Extreme Results.  I love being part of this gym family.  I love being healthy and having my weekends full of activities that promote that. 

Part of me started to feel bad for having such a great weekend but then I remembered that not embracing the life that I have to live won't undo anything that has already been done.

Tragedy

12/14/12

Another tragic school shooting today.  This one in an elementary school in Connecticut.  Now, what could kindergartners have done to deserve to be shot?  Really?  Not that anyone deserves to be murdered, but children even less so?  It makes me grateful that my kids made it through the day safely.  As a parent, you will always worry about your kids.  I am not the overprotective type.  Surprisingly, you would think I would be with what I do for a living.  But overall I am one of those people who thinks that you should live life to the fullest and not be scared of what "could" or "might" happen.  There is less of a chance of those things happening, ever in your life, then there is of winning a significant amount of money in the lottery.  Bad things are not the norm.  They are just the publicized.  Nobody wants to hear about ordinary stuff on the news.  Bad news gets ratings so we end up inundated with violence, tragedy and death.  What if you picked up the newspaper and the front page headline was an article about the local garden society party or turned on the news to a report on coffee shop specials for the week.  Everyone wants to be entertained and stimulated all of the time.  Lets find a way to take a break from all that over stimulation and just settle down and notice the present moment that we are in, not the moment that somebody else was in 6 hours ago. 

I'm not really an insensitive jerk.  My heart does hurt for those families who lost loved ones today in that senseless shooting.  And for the children that survived but will forever be effected by what they witnessed today.  We have a responsibility though.  We have a responsibility to focus on the positive things in life.  the law of attraction says that whatever I give my energy to is what I will manifest in my life.  As long as we spend all of this time and attention on the negative things those are things that will continue to show up in our lives.  The less energy I give something, the less power it has.  Lets collectively take the power away from violence in our society by not participating in the watching, reporting, or retelling of it.  Lets focus on the good that kids do.  Lets look at the sky and be amazed by the color of it.  Lets give a smile to a stranger just because we can.  Lets give an extra 2 or 3 dollars on the tip the next time we eat out.  That waitress might be a struggling single parent.  Lets make time to listen to what our kids are doing and take time to notice when they aren't talking to us and change that. 

I love my family. I love my town.  I love my country.  I love to run before the sun comes up.  I don't want to give that up.  I am praying for my community to stay safe enough for me to continue to do that but if it isn't then I want to retain my right to carry a gun to protect myself.  I will not hide in fear.  I will enjoy my life, my family and my community.  Please know that I will also protect my life, my family's lives and my property.  I will believe that people are basically good.  I will not allow a few bad apples to spoil the bunch. 

Happy Friday everyone.  The sun is shining and the temps are above normal.  It doesn't get much better than that for December in Northern Ohio.  Make a gratitude list

1.  The sun in December
2.  My husband's help today
3.  My kids health
4.  An ex-husband who takes an active role in our kids lives
5.  Girl's night
6.  My health
7.  The yoga class that I have the privilege of teaching tonight
8.  Some good laughs at work today with some coworkers who I consider friends

Blisters and blah, blah, blah

 


Thursday 12/13/12

Two training runs this week.  Yesterday and today.  I was suppose to run on Tuesday, but I felt so incredibly crappy Tuesday that I ended up going home from work early on Tuesday and sleeping most of the afternoon away.  It felt like my blood pressure may have been up.  I was super hot and having weird dizzy spells.  It passed by the end of the evening though.  So I pushed my short run to yesterday.  3.01 miles yesterday at lunch.  It was pretty cold out but as usual once I got going, no problem.  Today, I almost couldn't get a run in.  I actually was busy at work today (nice change of pace).  I finally managed to get 3.6 miles in at the end of the day.  It was a little tougher today since it was the end of the day.  I do better in the morning or midday.  I will be running a 5K on Saturday in my home town with a few of my Extreme friends.  That should be a good time.  My best friend is walking the 5K.  She recently started her journey to better health and this will be her first 5K.  I am so proud of her! 

I got my first training blister yesterday too.  I guess it is time for new shoes.  So, Santa, if your reading this I need a size 7 Nike Lunar Glide, Black.  Visual aid below.  I promise I have been a good girl and deserve a new pair of training shoes.  And in case there is no Santa, somebody call my husband and give him this information since he doesn't read my blog.  Thanks.

Chafing and Shin Splints

Sunday 12/9/12

Good weekend.  I mean, it was a really good weekend.  I absolutely loved my run yesterday.  I am feeling so empowered from it.  I wasn't even really sore today either.  Maybe a little tender in my quads but other than that I was good...until I got to the gym.  Then I realized that I may have a bit of shin splints.  When we started kicking the bag it felt like my shins were bruised every time they made contact with the bag.  I will really have to watch that, I don't want them to get any worse.  I also realized that I have a little chafing in a rather sensitive area too.  This is a good lesson for all of us.  See, when I was a "fatter" girl I wore big girl panties.  You know, the kind that covers the whole dairy aire.  Then as I got "skinnier" I got sexier under ware.  Now I like to wear thong style undies.  They actually are more comfortable.  But, my recently purchased ones have lace in the back and around the waist band.  What I discovered today is that the lace in the back has caused some chafing in my crack.  I know, it's another moment in which I hope you weren't taking a drink of something when you read that for fear you might spit it out your nose.  This bit of inoformation may save someone else from this uncomfortable irritation in the future.  I'm obligated to let people know the good and the bad.  So this weekend's lesson is two fold.  1.  Be careful of the shin splints (I might need to look into some new training shoes) and 2.  Be conscious of the undies you have one before you head out the door on an LR.

On a brighter note, I have been asked to teach a yoga class at the new Extreme Results Cardio Center.  I am super stoked about this opportunity.  To be honest, I was waiting for this opportunity. When they first started talking about it and posting things on FB about what they were doing I knew I wanted to be a part of it.  I love Extreme Results and I love teaching yoga.  Marry the two together and I am in heaven!  There are so many opportunities opening up to me right now.  I so know that 2013 is going to be a pivotal year for me and my family.  I am going to be patient and enjoy each opportunity as it unfolds in front of me.

One Third of the Way There

Saturday 12/8/12

The reward that I give myself for completing the long runs, as scheduled, is time at my favorite coffee house.  It's one of my favorite things to do.  Sitting, soaking up some atmosphere and surfing the web or tuning everything out with some music and reading a good novel.  Today, is a big reward for me.  I went out and completed 8.6 miles this morning.  It was awesome,except for the rain.  It was foggy when I started then it began misting and that eventually turned into a steady drizzle.  The rain dripped into my eyes and made my thighs burn from the cold dampness of my pants but I was so comfortable in my pace that I barely noticed it.  Running in the rain is my least favorite activity but today it didn't seem that bad.  I ran strong and steady till the last mile when my glutes began to cramp up on me a little bit.  Nothing too terrible though.  In fact I feel pretty good this afternoon.  After I got back from my run I realized that I ran approximately 1/3 of a marathon today.  I started thinking about that and figured that I will be able to finish a marathon.  The last third of it probably will not look as graceful as the first third but I will cross the finish line, if today was any indication of what I can get do.  Not bad today, considering I haven't run more than 6 miles since October of 2010.  I don't want to get over confident but I really do think that I got this.

This week I have been dealing with an abscessed tooth.  I have to go to a specialist to have a root canal but first the infection has to get cleared up.  To top things off, I have exhausted my dental benefits until January.  Needless to say, it has taken a serious strategy to figure out when to take the meds to ward off the pain and not interfere with my workouts.  I will not let this stop me though.  Only once this week did I get the timing wrong, as evidenced by a few mishaps at the gym in the morning which led to me punching myself in the head a few times (don't ask).  At the beginning of this I said that I would be honest with you about my training, good and bad.  I hope no one was taking a drink of something when they read that.  They would have risked spitting  it out their nose just then.  You remember that old Wide World of Sports jingle...the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.  Sometimes you win some and some times...you just don't.

The End of an Era

Tuesday 12/4/12

I will start with my training story tonight.  It was rainy today.  I usually get me weekday short runs in over my lunch hour but it was raining today so I didn't do it at lunch.  The forecast was that the rain would end in the afternoon and my plan was to run after work.  As the day wore on, of course my mind started to attempt to talk me out of it.  My mind was trying to put it off till tomorrow and almost won until my friend Linda posted this on my facebook wall today:

 

 
 This was my motivation today.  I was so glad I put my shoes on and got out there after work for 3.44 blissful miles at an easy 10:19 pace for an overall time of 35:29 and a 329 calorie burn.  It was very satisfying.
 
Now I'll move on to the rest of my day.  I am battling a tooth ache right now.  A cavity broke away but my benefits for this year are exhausted so I was trying to hold out until January.  However, the ache is winning so I am gonna have to pay for a temporary filing until January when I can get the crown that it needs.  So I called today and they can't get me in until tomorrow.  Tooth pain and Kidney stones are the WORST pains in the world, in my opinion.  So I have been a little off today already.  Then this afternoon I was told that the project that I started 7 years ago is being discontinued.  Even though I have not worked on that project for the last year, it was a serious blow to me.  That project was my baby.  Everything that I am today is someway connected to that project right down to how I met my husband.  I am devastated!  I don't feel like the new director tried very hard to keep that project going.  A whole era is coming to an end and I am not sure if I will get past it.  In some ways, the last 7 years have been the most important years of my life.  The most personal and professional changes have been made in me in this time.  I am trying to see this as the universe making room for something else but I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared to death.

Rainy Days and Mondays

Monday 12/3/12

Another crappy weekend but this time I let the weather talk me right out of doing my LR yesterday. Yep, I skipped a training run and to punish myself, I made myself run today. Even though it wasn't the scheduled 7 miles that I was suppose to do yesterday, it was still a punishment since this is non running day. This is not my usual dilemma. Usually I run no matter what. If nothing else gets done for the day, my run does. I was kind of beating myself up last night about it too but I just couldn't convince myself to get out there. Then this morning I realized why. My period came almost a week early. This is getting to be a problem. I go a few months totally on a normal schedule, then I will have a couple of months where everything is totally screwed up. Big sigh. Anyway, that probably examples all the binge eating this weekend too. I tell you, I have got to get my eating under control. Today was a much better day. I am even on top of my water intake too.

Saturday night I totally binged on Olive Garden. My husband's idea. Sometimes he is totally a bad influence on me. He;ll blame it on me though. Then on Sunday, there was a soup and pie party. And, it would be rude to not try something of everything...right? So needless to say, this weekend was a major fail. However, I am considering doing a 3 day detox over the weekend to get myself back on track. Dr. Oz has a good one that is doable. I think I will plan that for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.



Then there was the buying of the new vehicle on Friday which also sent me over the edge a little bit. You know I am a total worrier. So, as much as I needed (and wanted) a new car and this has been the plan for months now I still have a ton of anxiety about it. My head is going though tons of what its right now about it. These are the things that effect my rest and my workouts. My head is the most important factor in my physical well being. Sounds crazy but my mind can either drive me forward toward my goals like a cheetah chasing dinner or it can stop me dead in my tracks out of fear and make me stick my head in the sand like an ostrich. Talking back to the negative is the only way I will be able to make it the other side of this.
