Running Streak 1/31

All ready for the first run!

Today was the first day of my running streak!  And I did it, so already, I'm doing great!  Today was also the first day of my summer break and therefore had two goals: clean and run.  Isaac and I spent about four hours this morning focused on spring cleaning, this is in addition to the two hours I spent yesterday organizing papers from this semester.  At about 10am we divided and conquered, and this is the first time that we haven't been expecting company that the house has been this clean.

With a lofty goal of sweeping months of piled-up old dust out of the house, I still had my heart set on running with my hubby today.  We set a goal of 1.25 miles, and let me tell you, it was torture.  Despite the bit of running I did last week, I felt like I could barely make it through this one.  I can only imagine that the next few days are going to be torture.  I was originally planning to bump it up to 1.5 tomorrow, but now I'm just hoping I can get through 1!

Tonight I am celebrating the end of my first year of grad school and saying thank you to my wonderful hubby who has been so supportive of me this entire time, despite the house being in a constant state of disarray, my hours spent on the laptop, and my constant requests for his assistance as my personal chauffeur.  I'm planning a special night for the two of us.  I can't say more because it's a surprise.  Let's just say I'm glad I don't have to clean the house before he get's home from work.  Let's also just say that I hope these extra calories won't do too much to me and my goals.

Anyway, after a long week of goodbyes and treats to match the sentiments, I write to you having gained a few pounds.  I begin my running streak at 139 lb. and I hope to lose three pounds this month to keep me on schedule for my ten pound total.  

As for the rest of this month, I'm happy that I've been posting in my blog more regularly, but I don't expect to post after every day.  I'll likely strive for once a week, possibly more if I hit a particularly hard run.

As always, thanks for your love and support!
