Today was a little hard. M and I got up early again (after pressing the snooze a few times :) ) however, after we both started running we realized how important it is to eat right. The night before M and I had indulged on some sweets that we began to regret the first half mile of our run. As we encouraged one another on throughout the run, we mumbled to one another in between our breathes our complaints about the food we were now feeling in our bellies. Being saturday, there were tons of people where we were running, so we tried to weave in and out, while bicyclists and others zoomed past us and we tried to stay encouraged. I knew if I didn't think about it too much, my legs would keep going and I would eventually get to the end. And praise Jesus we made it in 22 minutes. And we now we will be thinking twice before we put food into our mouths! I am just glad we made it without walking, and now we're onto Day 7- almost made it a full week!
Total miles:8

P.S. Say NO to ginger snaps, ice cream and oatmeal cookies the night before a run! :)
