Yesterday, I ran 8km. Today was 6. Both days I got out way too late and suffered in the heat. Otherwise, I felt pretty good and the pain meds were working again. Just usual neck/back discomfort but nothing out of the ordinary. I need to start getting up/going to bed earlier and leaving earlier.

I’ve been using the app RunKeeper on and off for over a dozen years to track my runs. (Before that, I was using MapMyRun). I tried Strava a few years ago but the GPS kept going out on it. I got fed up and deleted the app along with my data. (Apparently, it was a glitch that affected a lot of people and they’ve since fixed it.) I’m now having issues with Runkeeper. It keeps disconnecting from my Apple Watch when tracking which is frustrating. I’m also extraordinarily bitter that some of the features that I used to like are now only accessible under subscription. This happened a few months ago. I got no notice about it and irked me. (I used to be a subscriber when I ran a lot but I’m not sure if it’s worth it now as I don’t run as much as I used to.)

I’m considering going back to Strava as it has a few more cool features such as creating video of your runs. I also miss the social aspect of it. It was nice to cheer others on. (I don’t know anyone on RunKeeper.) It looks like they’re also both comparable in price for the subscription features if I chose to go that route, too.

Anyone else on here use Strava and really like it?

I may end up trying it again. If I really like it, there’s an option to transfer all of my Runkeeper files over to Strava.

Ella also made me a bouquet 💐 of Lego flowers.

I thought this was so cool. I need a better vase but it still looks pretty awesome.

I better shower and get a move on. It’s going to be a busy day.

Day 52. 2/9/23 -- 30 Minute bike ride.

Omg, how can any amount of wind in your face make riding so hard! And though I'm faster, on average, than I was last time (and rode further), it was made clear to me how slow I was going when I got passed by some people who were clearly just cruising... not really pushing at all. Sigh. (When I told the BF about getting passed, he asked if they were walking... asshole. 🙄)

My glutes and quads were wobbly when I got done. I dearly wanted to stop about 8 minutes short of 30 minutes, I was back home, but pushed myself to keep going around the block to make the 30 minutes. Yay?

Did we end up going on the walk Sunday afternoon to seize the good weather?  NOPE.  Took a two-hour nap instead. Ahh, self care :)  Did I make up for it by sitting on the front porch with erp?  You betcha. 

This was an interesting month for me. I remained strict keto and ramped up my exercise efforts yet my monthly weight loss was smaller than it’s been in four months. It’s frustrating, but I realize that the smaller I get the harder it will be to lose. I’m not disappointed by any means as I’ve experienced significant weight loss, am really proud of my efforts and how my body looks compared to where it was not THAT long ago. While my weight might not be dropping significantly, it is continuing to move in a downward direction and I know there are far more elements at play other than the number on the scale. 

This morning I woke up at 5:40 a.m. to get my walk in before work which also added five more miles in to close out the month. It is encouraging to see my pace continues to quicken and that I’ve already surpassed my total miles for all of 2019! 

There’s so much to celebrate and I did so with my three go-to happy meals. Chaffles with avocado, cucumber cream cheese tortilla and chicken and broccoli. How is this dieting when it all tastes so good??! 

Starting Weight (12.18.19):  271

August’s Starting Weight (8.1.20):  218.6

August’s End Weight (8.31.20):  213.8

Total Weight Lost in 1 Month: 4.8lbs* Total Weight Lost in 8 Months:  57.6lbs Total Weight Lost Since Quarantine Began: 30.5lbs

*Why is this number different than the number I’m documenting as my loss for the month, you ask? I’m tracking based on continuing numbers and the first day of August I gained 0.5lbs from the last day of July, so that gain is getting calculated into my total. Some months doing it this way helps give me a larger loss at the end, other months (like this one) it plays against me. 

We’ll see what September brings!

ちょっと最近は在宅でして、まぁ出社とかどちらでも良いのだけど、やはり運動不足になるね。というわけで食後に軽くウォーキング。朝も歩いて今日一日で13,000歩ほど。今日は多少の雨が降っていましたけど、湿度が高くてね。ここ数日だるくないですか？ウォーキングするのは良いけどやはり湿度が高いとちょっと落ちるね。 . #ウォーキング #runkeeper #夜散歩 #散歩 #烏龍茶 https://www.instagram.com/p/CO-pk6pAdOx/?igshid=pcucc3m1mfd1

My fastest outdoor run!!

I still have asthma from the Covid, but the inhalers are helping a lot.

Today was like "catch up day" for my training. Probably not the best thing to do, but I did it. And it felt good.

I had to 2 2 mile runs and one 3 mile run.

Like always I started a little tooooo strong on my first 2 mile run, but I recovered and kept within the pace limits for Runkeeper.

My foot was causing me problems, but they worked themselves out until I was walking back to my car and my foot really hurt.. And now, trying to walk around the house it hurts greatly lol. I think my shoe has too much padding 🤷🏻‍♀️

My boyfriend and I recently completed our very first half marathon! What better way to re-enter the tumblr health & fitness world than a humble brag. One down, now we are itching to sign up for more and be better!
