1.81 miles, 30 minutes. A good deal of that was at 4.4 - 4.6 mph. Getting better daily! Whee!

2.5ish miles in 40 minutes on the treadmill tonight.
ISH because at about 10 minutes and .8 miles into a jog (at 4.4 the whole time! whee go me!) there was a sudden storm and we lost power for all of 2 seconds, which reset the display.
Seriously, I hide the display so i won't obsess over it.. but i keep running into problems with it... either i hit the emergency tag (i think i fixed that)... or an act of god interfers! =)
Either way...
it's been a full week since my last workout. found out that the baby's dad had been going outside our relationship... not just when i caught him when i was pregnant, but the entire time since. with various men and women. (wait... i know what you're thinking...) the thing is, i am fine with him forming other "relationships", whatever the nature. i am NOT fine that i buy his cigarettes, put gas in his car, pay his phone bill... and then find out the reason he couldn't drive me to pick up my daughter this week is because he used the gas to take a girl from his work on a "date". whatever that means. or that he lies about it. i accepted a long time ago that the romantic relationship we had is over. i don't really want it back even. but financially, this is the situation we're in. so we keep living together. HE has not accepted that we are over. he throws fits 5 times a week, minimum, about how i haven't forgiven him and he just wants this to "be okay". (He proceeds to sleep until 2 pm, shower for an hour, leave, come home at midnight, and stay up all night...so. And no, btw, if you keep lying, cheating, stealing, etc etc etc... it's not likely that i would forgive you. i don't believe "sorry" fixes anything, except maybe bumping into someone in a crowd.)
Whatever... sorry for the mental purging, but it piles up. So, when I found out all the stuff I found out, the same night I had to tell my baby girl I wasn't coming (this hits me real hard, because of how many times i spent waiting for my dad to show up... and how many times he didn't even call...) ... my depression hit me like a brick. Too much stress and unhappiness for too long.
So I spent the last week playing with my son, and hiding in my bedroom when I could. I only gained 1.5 pounds, which is minimal when i look at how badly my eating pattern was..(not so much the what of what i was eating, but the not eating all day because i just couldn't be bothered to go to the fridge... then eating whatever he'd bring home and put on a plate from applebee's at night... not a great way to live.).
So, I'm just proud that I pulled myself off my ass and did my workout.
And, here's a fucking awesome thought... a year ago, the power going out would have been a perfectly AWESOME reason to stop a workout. tonight, i not only continued, i started back over because my plan was a full 30 minutes, dammit! =).

c25k week 7, day 1. 25 minute jog with 5 minute warm up and cool down. A little behind schedule, because I decided not to workout until the sinus infection "passed". Somehow, I got a nose bleed with about 10 minutes left in the workout, but I was so close to done, I kept going. (Didn't even realize my nose was bleeding, went to wipe my face with my sweat towel and it came away red.) Final distance, 2.19 miles... improvement of .04 miles on the last 25 minute jog.
25 minutes is still a LONG time to me, although the first 10 minutes of the jog passed fairly easily at a steady 4.0-4.2 mph pace... did end up at 3.6 for a few minutes the last part though. still, improvement!

c25k week 6, day 3. 5 minute warm up, 25 minute jog, 5 minute cool down. total distance 2.15 miles, total time 35 minutes.
I was supposed to do this yesterday, but I've got this really annoying sinus-thing going on. My glands are swollen all over, and the pressure it's putting on my jaw makes me feel like i'm clenching my teeth as tight as possible, but of course, i'm not. also makes my eyes water/burn, my head throb a little, and my throat all dry and hoarse scratchy achey.
I wasn't going to work out tonight either, because I know sick people are supposed to rest, but it's such a part of me at this point, i was going stir crazy not doing it.
Am strongly considering stopping and starting the c25k back over at the beginning. I can't possibly lower my speed any further... i did most of tonight at 3.8, with maybe 1/4 at 4.0, and a few "breaks" of jogging at 3.6, which is slower than my fastest walking time...
i'm seriously not sure i can make 30 or 35 minutes at this rate.
but i've decided i'll keep pushing forward until i hit a day i can't pass, no matter how stubborn i am... and then i'll either start over, or (more likely)... i'll just repeat that day as often as i need to until i can do it. because i'm not sure that i'd benefit from going back to week one, when i sometimes now add week one after my scheduled day, just because i can.
i do believe in challenging myself.
oh who knows.

Heh. Bodybugg activity goal (60 minutes above whatever calorie burning they consider to be active) met at 10:02 am. This is because on sunday mornings, I clean. Oh wait... I clean every day! =). Still, the earliest I've ever hit it. And I'm just starting the 2nd room of our 5 room apartment.
