This has been such a LONG week! I'm having to put in some extra hours at work because my boss is on vacation, and we're so short-handed as it is. Ugh. And where did Saturday go?! I can't believe Sunday is almost over and it all starts again tomorrow!
Today as I was heading out to the garage (to my treadmill) for my 7.5 mile long run, I remembered I had a virtual 10k to run. I was going to do 2/:30 intervals but ended up doing 2:30/:30. I did the running between 6.5 and 7mph, and walked at 4mph. This averaged out at about 9:30 minutes/mile. I finished the 10k at just under 58 minutes which, while not a PR, was pretty good considering all the walk breaks! My main problem with the walk breaks is that I get tired out way to soon, and then it gets harder to go back to running. And speaking of which, after the 10k I ended up walking the rest of the 7.5 miles.
I was pretty bad at tracking again this week, but my weight stayed between 112 - 113, other than this morning which was 111. I did well today (a peanut butter & chocolate chip wrap for breakfast, and my Boca pasta concoction for an early supper) until I overindulged on my latest batch of Happy Herbivore's Chocolate Chip Cookies ;) Now I just want to lay down and sleep! And as a matter of fact, that's what I'm going to do! Nighty night :)

Hi Laura! Well you were working, me too. I spent nearly all day (Sunday) at the office (12:00 to 7:30 p.m.), because too much stuff to get done with too many deadlines. It's better to just go to the office than to worry about it and do nothing--but then overstress all the rest of the week!
