Kim Gets Healthy: On the road to my second 5K.
3.1 miles in 40:51. My fastest time is 40:14, so I’m happy with today. Since I took ten days off to eat like crap, drink only soda, and sit on my couch, that is a decent time. Tomorrow is a rest day, then I’ve got Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. My goal by Saturday is to hit 39:59. I know that’s not very far from where I am now, and that is still by no means impressive, but it will be a huge deal to see a 3 at the start of my time instead of a 4. I feel like it’s a bit of a milestone, and I’m SUPER excited to meet such a big goal.
Motivate me, Tumblr. What important goals have you all reached?
So it’s been a rough week. Work has been…shitty and not worth discussing. But I need to stop making things worse by letting go of everything that makes me feel strong and healthy. So tomorrow is the return of my healthy habits. I have breakfast and lunch ready to go. Both are clean and delicious. I have my gym bag packed and sitting by the door. I have 4 weeks until the Color Run. I loved my last 5K and want to beat my time. I’m not going to do that if I fill the next 4 weeks with fast food and sitting on my ass. Plus, running makes me feel good. Why do I forget that when I’m in a bad mood?
Sometimes I feel like I quit when I start to succeed. Why do I do that? A therapist would have a field day with me. Meanwhile, back at it. Look for this to become more of a Fitblr again soon :)
