I did it.....

Yesterday after picking up the kids for practice we went to my sisters since it was still early we had about an hour to kill, she was making dinner and I honestly was super hungry, she made some chopped carne asada, refried beans all in a burrito, I agreed to one, I ate it up! it was pretty good its been a while since I have had any red meat lol............the girls ate ok well only Gena Akira didn't want any.....while at the practice my sister took out a baggie of hot cheetos........................of course my son pointed to it and I told her that she shouldn't be eating those she said oh I rarely have these and I did say well you shouldn't give the boys that.....and then suddenly my nephew stopped during his warm-up and asked for some she sternly said to pay attention (he ended up getting a baggie after practice) while we were there she offered me chocolate *AHHHH* I kept saying no thanks but Angel was wanting some ugh, so I said ok, fed him some and I of course had some =( oh well....................

After practice we went home and hubby was home from work, he made sure I went running because he knows how upset I was that the day before I couldn't go due to our son being clingy .......so I went......our dog (Jedi) was so excited he knows that when I'm dressed for our run he's going and he just follows me around waiting lol its cute and annoying. We left and I had my music blasting to Latin workouts............OMG! I wanted to run atleast 30min nonstop....even at the stop lights I jogged in place I use to laugh at people doing that but I wanted to keep my heart rate up.....it makes sense now =)
I went 2.2mil non stop! I only stopped because I ran out of road! lol .................wow 29min 2.2miles I was soo excited but then man I had to go back home! That's the best part of not doing my runs on a treadmill you HAVE to keep going to get home no stopping and say oh well next time I kept jogging and I did want to stop SO BAD but then Id ask myself why? I'm not hurting, I am tired but I can still keep going and if I stop it will be hard to start up again......just see how much further you can go so I did....................I went all the way home I only stopped and started walking with my arms up to slow my heart rate about less than 1min from my place........I felt AWESOME~! I did 4.4miles in 58min!!! That's a goal now for me, to jog it in less and less time.......the half marathon is 13miles and you have 4hours to make it if I keep getting my time lower I can make it!!! I'm soooo happy and omg sore! I got home wanting to fall over and grabbed some skim milk with chocolate and 2 pieces of Ezekiel cinnamon bread! haha....I burned over 1031cal!!! wow!!!

Today I woke up with lower back pain but not ouch pain more of a sore pain...............I do jog with my back straight.......I learned to control my breathing so I don't exhaust myself.....my legs are sore.....but it feels good...............I pray I can keep this up =)

Amazing job prima. I am super proud of you. Running on the street is way harder because you have to motivate yourself to keep going. The treadmill is tough to because it pushes you to run but it also carries you. So I know how much hard work you put in to run that distance. Great timing. I ran the marathon is 2:45 accounting for my potty break too :) So I am sure you can do it because you are already doing great time. :)
