so when I mapped my 26 minute run when I got back, it said it was .4 miles! No way I only went .4 miles in 26 minutes! So I decided to drive it after work. I went .95 miles each way (so close to a mile!) before I turned around, so 1.9 miles in 26 minutes! That is just over 13 minutes a mile!
I almost decided to stay in because it looked like it was about to rain, no one was in the fitness center so I could watch my Food Network, but I am glad I did. I have only been doing 4.0 mph, or 15 minute miles. I went faster outdoors! Now I know I can step it up on the treadmill! And I am not that concerned now about finishing the 5K anymore. Yeah!!!

BLOOD SUGARS: normal (thanks the the fun size musketeers!)
Watching the biggest loser, I guess it’s split between tonight and tomorrow due to the debates tonight. That’s okay with me – two days of the Biggest Loser!
Hope everyone had a great day, see you in the a.m.
Hooray for running faster!! No DOUBT you’ll be able to finish the 5k!! 🙂
I don’t trust the mapping site either, I always feel like I went farther. That’s great about your run though. COngrats on a great day!
Good job on the run. That’s impressive. I’m a diabetic too and I’ve been eating the fun size milky way and even though my blood sugar has been ok, I still felt guilty about not eating sugar free dove like I have since I was diagnosed. I feel better knowing I’m not the only one doing this, and that your blood sugars are ok too. Thanks
good job on getting out there,,, halloween is always great cause all the fun sized candy
yay
