2 weeks to go before the 10k

HOLY CRAP!!! I am so not ready.. I have been working out but NOT walking - I have concentrated on yoga, The Shred and weight training.. At the moment I am doing serious bunt kicks to my own ass.  I did go get me a knee brace but that's ALL the prep I have done for this race.

Ok breathe - I have 2 weeks still and can get some walking in during that time.  I already know I won't be setting any PR's for this race - I never expected to.  Those who are walking me can just meet me at the finish line when I drag my ass across it then we can go hydrate and refuel with carbs... Thankfully my sister in law is doing this one with me and she loves me so she won't be out to throttle me! LOL

In other news I have decided to take off my pink & white acrylics and get a get manicure - I will soak them off tonight and get the mani tomorrow. Every since I started taking Biotin and drinking a protein shake every morning for breakfast my own seem to be pretty hearty so we will see. I'll post before's and afters.  I'm looking forward to just relaxing with the TV and soaking these off tonight.  I have worked out every night this week and plan to tomorrow before my nail appt I feel like a night off is earned.

TGI Thursday ....

Almost to Friday - its Friday eve ... Lordy am I tired today. All week I have not been in bed by my usual bedtime and it is catching up to me.  I'm shooting for 10 pm tonight.  Problem is 10 rolls around and I am thinking huh I'm not tired and I am a big girl now I can stay up.. The next day I become afflicted with the  disease Draggin ass! I need to remember that yes I am a grown up now which means I don't HAVE to try to stay up later I am ALLOWED to go to bed!

Last night I went home and got part of a Shred work out in before my body decided it was done.  Then threw some dinner together and got the call that a friend we have not seen in awhile was back in town, so we ate and left for awhile to catch up. Had a blast just standing in the driveway chatting away. Before we knew it 9:15 had come around and it was time to go home and get ready for another day.

Woke up late this morning and had to rush - man I had rushing. Threw my protein shake together and headed out the door for the office.  I used almond milk this morning - and let me tell you I am not a fan. I know it has way less calories in it than the Lacaide milk but it tastes off and I got hungry way before lunch. So I think I will just make it with the Lacaide even with the extra calories because it holds me until lunch which actually means the calories balance out or I consume less because I did not snack midway.

Tonight I need to get my workout in and relax some. I am looking forward to the weekend and some downtime..

60 day Fit Challenge - Day 1

August 1st already - WOW

Last night I bought a new water bottle that is awesome and has been causing nerd envy all around. I find it easier to keep track of how much water I am drinking because I only need to count refills - this baby hold 25 oz per fill.

I also picked up an actual "bucket" of protein power and a blender bottle. Huge difference there as well from the Special K drinks.  This has a little over double the grams of protein in it, less sugar. The biggest difference - it kept me fuller!! I missed my morning snack because I didn't become hungry until noon - which is even a hour past when I eat lunch..

Tonight I will be hitting the 30 day shred as part of the 60 day challenge.  So I need to get measurements and new before pictures. I am thinking of printing out my motivation picture as well so I see it all the time..
