*continues happy dance*
Thanks Michelle and Don!
Did 3 miles yesterday at a 17 minute mile pace and another 3 today at a 10 minute mile pace. I'll start back on Round 5 of the diet tomorrow. (Took a longer break than normal to carbo load for the 12k (7.something mile) Bloomsday I did on Sunday). Starting it tomorrow so that I can enjoy the block wide bbq we are doing tonight. I feel so much better on days that I exercise! I'm back on track for hitting my 1000 mile goal by the end of the year. There are 238 days left in the year and if I average 4 miles a day I can still achieve my goal. That's 40 minutes on the elliptical at a 10 minute mile pace or 80 minutes on the elliptical at a 20 minute mile walk. I can easily commit to 40-80 minutes of walking/jogging/running a day.
I think this makes 14! I had a blast. I walked with 3 other friends all in costume and chatted with several others I knew throughout the race. This year I walked in my Sith Twi'lek costume which meant that I carried an additional 15lbs on my head (the lekku [aka headtails] of my costume). None of us were concerned about time. We were walking for the fun of it. I was interviewed and we probably had at least 100 people take our picture throughout the 12k course.
