40 day streak yay! (I ran today already)

It's getting harder to fit in time in the evenings to run with the stroller because I don't like pushing it in the dark and it's completely dark at 7:30 and in the next couple weeks we turn back the clocks and it will be dark by 6:30... I hate winter just because of how dark it always is :(

next month goal run 100 miles :)

September 10, 2017

Since August 19, I've ran every day :)  Some days it was just a mile, but I got out there and did it.  I've also made a couple goals for September:
1.  No soda at all, no exceptions
2.  Run at least 1 miles a day
3. hit 10,000 steps every day
4. weigh 157 by October 1st

So far I've been doing it, and I have gotten down to 156lbs, BUT, yesterday I had a cheat day and ate whatever and I'm up to 158 lol, I anticipate that will go away in the next 2 days. On August 30 I weighed 161.6 so thats good :) My ultimate weight goal is to get back to 145ish lbs, the lowest I've weighed was 143 but my pre-pregnancy weight was 154, when I started weight lifting I gained about 10lbs, so I'm so close!! I am trying to not let anything stop me, I've been bringing Cian on many of the runs even ones that aren't short, I pushed him for over 5 miles one day and man that sucked hahahaha. I also am finally getting closer to my normal pace and the last few days have been running less than a 10 minute mile.  I want to streak as long as I can :)
