It came today!

When I started my journey my dad bet me that when I lost 40 pounds he would buy me a heart rate monitor watch with a gps so I could track my mileage. Well, IT CAME TODAY! I was so excited to learn all of the fun stuff that it could do! While I waited for it to charge I ran into town to pick up some groceries and dinner with Natalie.

Can I tell you how much I love Leann Chins?  They have this great Asia Fit menu with tons of options for under 400 calories!  I really like this option because all of the nice veggies and proteins that they have in their entrees. 
So today I had an asia fit meal with shrimp and vegetable stir fry and potstickers. It was super yummy!
Here was my fortune....this is a good sign right?

After dinner I hit up the grocery store. Bailey and I are both going to explain how we go about grocery shopping on Thursday, but here is a list of some things that I picked up this week.
 
Apples
SmartPop 100 calorie pack popcorn
Lemon Ginseng Tea
Blueberry flax granola (great with almond milk)
Small can of beets
Babybel cheese
 1 pecan crusted chicken breast
1 stuffed pork chops
Vitamin C supplement drops (Annie is sick and I am determined not to get it)
Trail Mix
My second notebook for my food log

With all that running around I was ready for my run, FINALLY!  I strapped on my watch and heart rate monitor, bundled up, and hit the pavement.  I was cruising, probably because of my new watch.  I was definitely checking it every .25 mile or so....but I was killing it! I was on pace for 11:30 miles.  I am a little worried with my times getting so quick on these short runs, today was only 2.5 miles and it felt like a breeze, I love that feeling.  With my times getting quicker I am worried I am going to fast on race day....on my sunday long run I am really going to try and slow it down and pace, four miles....oh my lordy.  I am going to RUN the entire thing, no walking, no exceptions.

Here's me all bundled :)
I wore:
Under armor wicking shirt (long sleeved)
Champion zip up
Fila capri leggings
Hat
Mittens

 

 

 

Until tomorrow,
