Since I started doing this “healthy thing”, my wife has been telling me how she wished she could run the races with me. She can’t run the Bolder Boulder with me because, 1- We don’t know if she has the day off and, 2- They don’t allow jogging strollers at the Bolder Boulder so we’d have to find someone to watch our little girl while we run. I’ve been wondering if she has been feigning interest in joining me on a run, so today I called her bluff.
Last week I registered to run the Cherry Creek Sneak 5k at the end of April. The race is on a Sunday and they allow jogging strollers. I started talking to Erin about training for the race and how we could make it work. One major obstacle was that we didn’t have a jogging stroller. So I hopped online and found a used stroller on craigslist for $45, drove out to Thornton, and brought it home. Now we have the stroller, Erin has the day off, and we have a training schedule worked out. No more excuses. She registered for the race tonight. I’m excited to have her join me.
I was talking to my 10 year old tonight and I told her about the 5k, and she says she wants to run with us. She’d probably kick our butts but I’m going to see what I can do to get her out here to join us.
Breakfast
Cheese and spinach quiche
Coffee with creamer
Lunch
Ham and turkey sandwich
Dinner
Pizza on a wheat crust and hamburger topping
Glass of red wine
Even with the pizza tonight, I stayed below 1300 calories for the day. In fact, I’ve lost another 2lbs and an inch off my belly.
Activity
3 mile walk with the family.
Yoga
Thanks for the push.
