Here were my goals for the weekend, and how I did:
Writing this down so I stay focused.
Saturday:
-Run an easy three on Saturday done!
-Limit two glasses of wine all weekend Fail, had another half glass and also had a cider with lunch on Sunday.
-Roasted Turkey avocado sandwich for Le Pain Quotidien (Warren St & B'Way) yum, and didn't even finish it.
-Italian for dinner, limit one piece of bread Stuck to one piece, which was a big deal, I love bread (and it was yummy)
Sunday:
-Finish Staten Island Half with a smile (no time goal! not allowed to turn on virtual pacer) Done, and got a personal best time! I find when I relax and have fun I do the best.
-Allowed to have pizza for lunch :) had it for dinner instead, but ate early.
-Subway for dinner had a kind of unhealthy lunch, Mac n cheese and a turkey cheese panini. But passed on chips, and didnt finish either. They did offer me a free cookie, which I took, and it was totally worth it.
-Walk on TM when home easy (catch up on one Blacklist) Nope. I chafed pretty bad during the race and passed in the walk. I did pick up an extra 5 miles walking around the city though.
So, not perfect, but not a complete failure. I am also really happy about my race performance. I have been busting my butt the past 12 weeks and it was awesome to see it pay off, in a big way. My real goal race is next weekend, and I'm not sure what my goal should be now, if anything. I'll repeat this exercise next weekend. This did help keep me on track most of the time.
Cheers!
