I really didn't feel like running today

I managed to haul my ass out with some words of encouragement from friends in WhatsApp. So much love for those guys.

I thought I'd just do a mile and see how I felt. Ended up doing two miles. Got a new PB on time for it. Slowly getting fasterrrrrrrrr..

It was hard for me, not gonna lie. I still haven't run for 3 miles straight since the first time. 4 miles is even more elusive. Oh well, I'll get there eventually. 

Now I'm going to relax in my bubble bath. 

GUESS WHO JUST DID A 3 MILE JOG WITHOUT STOPPING?!

Yeaaaaah buddy!

Yep, I'm naked & in the bath. Haters gon' hate...

I'm so happy about this, especially considering the catastrophe that was Tuesday's run. I think I could have gone for at least another mile if I'd had something to eat beforehand.

I did stop to walk for max 20 seconds to de-steam my glasses before crossing a road, but I'm totally not counting that as a walk break.

I think today's run was better because I had a half decent stretch before I left the house and set off slowly which gave my legs time to warm up. Gonna do that more often.

I feel like a 10k in May is well within my grasp now!

I'm still very slow, but glad I've got this distance down. Speed will come later with more training.

5.9 km done this evening

In 59 minutes. I think I was waiting at traffic lights for at least 5 minutes!

Good run, though. Longest distance completed so far. 10k is slowly coming into my grasp.

2014 is going to be a hell of an exciting year. I can't wait to look back and see everything I've achieved at the end of it.

I ate lots of (bad) food today - latte, mcdonalds, a cookie, chicken shish in naan bread, some chips. My belly is full. I am a fatty. This is my life.

Time to start eating healthier again, Christmas is officially over! Healthy(ier) eating resumes Monday. Gonna blog pictures of my food againnnnnnnnnnnn. How boring for my 1.2 readers. Sorry, guys.

I made a meal plan for next week so I know what groceries to get. It took me about 2 hours. Awesome.

Totally gonna eat Chinese tomorrow, though. Not even ashamed. No regrets.

Treated myself to a candle lit bubble bath after the run. Non-food rewards are the way forward!

Just because I run doesn't mean I should eat cake, just because I run doesn't mean I should eat cake, just because I run doesn't mean I should eat cake...

Family weigh-in and measurement taking is tomorrow. Let's see how much damage I've done over Christmas!

Mum & Grandma are also taking up walking and are going to measure how far they can go in 20 minutes. I downloaded runkeeper for them so they can track their progress.

A year of change for everyone. BRING IT!
