♪♫ La La Land ♪♫

wutdanom:

I ran for 5 sessions over the week, between 2 and 3 miles each time.

My boyfriend Pete (if you use Dailymile you can follow him here) finally started running this week, so that was really nice to run along side him as he starts his training for a Triathlon in May 2012.

Sunday was my first run on the beach (turned out to be almost 5 miles!!! *See above photo) with some friends who are training for The Great North Run so was fun trying to keep up with them (I had no chance…lol).

That is Jen on the left who is training for the Great North Run and Ben aka Sway who is insanely fit, think he recently completed a half marathon when he was only training for a 10k O_o

Hit Karate only twice but that was due to work getting in the way! Did have an excellent session on Thursday though where I met up with 3 of the ladies who are planning to take part in Kata competitions and we smashed through all of the Kata’s we knew and played with some new ones too!

This was taken on Monday at Karate, why they insist on taking these unflattering stretching pics is beyond me :P (Please excuse my rude gesture…lol)

I bought some kitchen scales to keep a better handle on the quantity of food I’m eating which has immediately reduced most of my portion sizes.. breakfast is about 75% less than I previously ‘guessed’ the portion should be… which is an eye opener!

Overall this week has been great! I’ve felt motivated and energetic! There was one night that was boozy and filled with junk, but it was an lovely night spent with friends from out of town (who then made me run on the beach to make up for it :P) so was worth it!

Another week like this and I should really start to feel the difference and maybe even see it on the scales!
