New Challenge

I am so excited. We are starting a new challenge over on SparkPeople called "NewYear'sBest". I'm going to be a team leader!!! Yes, me!!! WOOOHOOO!!!! We have, I think, 7 people signed up so far. Good times ahead. My goals for the challenge are:

1) To loose 1 lb per week
2) To exercise at least 5 times per week
3) To not gyp myself out of fitness by taking it "easy" on myself during the workout
4) To be accountable to myself when I go off track, but not give myself a pass to give up

If any of you are on SparkPeople and want to join up - the more the merrier!!

Today I went running with "J", the gal that I signed up for the 10k run with. Neither of us brought a watch, so we ran/walked but don't know what intervals we were doing. Anyhow, we were out there for around 50 minutes, maybe a bit more. It was a good run. Seemed like lots of hills. Just about killed me. What is worrying me though is the run I have to do tonight with the Running Room. It is a short one, two intervals of 10:1.....oh, well. It is just for today. I meet with "J" again on Friday for another run. Tomorrow is a day off. Can't wait.

I have the munchies today, but so far have managed to only have some water. I am about to have some raisin bran with skim milk. Mmmmm, I love raisin bran. I'm eating some of my activity points today for sure. I bought the best spinach salad for lunch.....so yummy....came with a bit of strawberries and mandarin oranges with a raspberry type vinaigrette.

What else? I think that's about it. Hope everyone is sticking with their programs today and having a healthy day!!
