Day one of my Vegan One Cleanse! Before weight.  13.9% body fat =( 

let myself go for the Holidays.

I just needed to get out there and pound the pavement forget about everyone and everything and just keep putting one foot in front of the other.

It’s been a month since I last went for a run.  The San Gabriel Turkey Trot 10K on November 21st and since I was a little stressed I decided I needed a release.  Although I said I was taking the Holidays off since I felt like I needed rest.  I think I am fully rested.  For Dinner a Hainanese Chicken Salad with Chicken Broth

Was doing great until the pain of a blister hit but I needed to get my 9 miles in so powered through it.  No Pain No Gain!

Been Pushing Hard this month because I have the Nike+ SF Women’s Half Marathon on October 18th and the LA Rock & Roll Half Marathon on October 25th.  Had an amazing month.  Abs are back.  My Body Fat is down to 11.9% body fat.  I’ve been really good with my diet and my beach body workouts!

Felt like I needed to push it after gaining 4 pounds this weekend in Vegas!  So I slept in instead of waking up at 5:45AM and did two workouts after getting home from work.  Ate to fuel my body not to fill it and feeling awesome.  Drank 2 cups of Yogi Detox tea and 80 oz of water today.  Let’s get rid of them 4 pounds by the weekend!  Time to get comfortable being uncomfortable again.

last long run before my first 1/2 Marathon in Portland next week...  Feeling sore but my feet held up to the 10.3 miles I did so I’m very happy.  No Blister!

[yzfnyc]

Longest Run Yet 10 Miles but the last 1 1/2 were excruciating because I got a blister again.  Down to 157.8 lbs and 11.7% Body Fat.  Very happy with the progress!

[yzfnyc]

Got a blister from my new running socks that were to save time with taping my feet.  so after about the 4.5 mile mark it was painful but I did the 8 miles I set out to do so feeling accomplished.

[yzfnyc]

8.15 Miles!  My longest run yet.  My first 1/2 Marathon in 5 weeks!  Have to keep pushing!

[yzfnyc]

Still working on A New Me...  not because the old me is bad just because the old me can improve.

[yzfnyc]

Felt bad about not working out this morning and have to go to my podiatrist in the morning so went for a run tonight in the cold and the rain.  1 1/2 miles in I twisted my ankle so struggled to do my 4 miles but got it done.

[yzfnyc]

Started doing my new normal of 4.1 miles but then the right song came on and I said f%*k it, Let’s push this mutherfu%king body today.  10K for breakfast!

[yzfnyc]

Pushed farther then ever before on a run.  Only issue is too many lights on Valley but whatever it’s the miles you travel not the time it takes you to get there.  [In life and in running]

[yzfnyc]

I hate running but I gotta keep at it.  Got that Half Marathon coming up in less then 7 weeks! =D

[yzfnyc]

Didn’t work out for 2 weeks because of a trade show in Las Vegas and then got sick when I got back.  Still am not at 100% but getting back into the swing of things!  It took a lot of work to get to goal weight and I’m not going to let it go so easily. Cause Perez’s Never Quit!
