Day 92
My knees have been sore.....whaaaaa! It seems it's always something. However; they don't hurt or bother me when I'm running so I'm not concerned.
I officiated a wedding today. I had to put on my suit, the pants are usually really tight but today I was almost comfortable in them.....Yes!!
I am committed to getting as thin as possible so I can compete in my age group. There are some really fast 60+year olds around here!
4.3 miles today-finished the week with 22.8 miles-next week increase 10%! Hope you are well! Peace!

Day 93
Wow! The weather is so fantastic! It's amazing how the body responds to 70 degrees verses 90 degrees! I actually ran at a decent pace today. I had one 9:10 mile followed by a 9:48 mile. Keep in mind this is hilly terrain so I'm very glad. Nice 5 miler-
Got my new shoes. I think they will work, especially if I lose the extra pounds. Today I weighed in at 183 so that's down 2 pounds.
Seems like I'm hungry all the time. I have been increasing fluid intake, that seems to help. Hope you are well! Peace!

Day 94
So, the scale says I've gained three pounds! I should stay off the scale!
I know I've slimmed a bit so I will stay the course and not quit! 10 days of watching calorie intake and consistent running. It's probably all the push-ups I've been doing that's added weight.
Today I was weak and tired as I ran but managed to eek out a 3.5 miler. I hope to get my new shoes tomorrow!! Excited! Peace!

Day 95
Yesterday was a day of rest. Sandy and I went to a concert. We ate smart and are seeing the beginning of results!!
I ran 5 miles today. Felt pretty good. The weather has turned cool so that makes a difference.
My goal is to up 10% from last week so 22 would be the goal. Hope you are well! Peace!

day 97
Monday morning drag...but the crispness of the weather gives you a significant boost! Yes, it's 70 degrees with a brisk north wind. Sunshine and a wide open road. Couldn't be better!
I did a 5 miler with a decent pace. I am still doing well when it comes to limiting calories. One day at a time!! Peace!

day 99
Forgot to post yesterday; felt really good! Odd how some days you feel strong and others....not so much! Today I finished out the week with an easy 3.4 miles of hot weather running. Looks like Autumn is on its way with the forecast calling for a big cool off tomorrow.
So a 20.4 mile week. Oh! I ordered some new running shoes today! I've been running in Kayanos for years, but after my last race I noticed a lack of forefoot stability. After much research I decided to try the Brooks Ghost 8. I got 'em for 70 bucks! Any reviews? Hope all is well with you! Peace!

So Fall has arrived. Fortunately it was still hot today! I managed an easy 3 miler. On track for 20 miles this week. I will gradually build. Hope all is well with you! Peace!
