It's crazy to see how fast these weeks pass by. This week there have been some ups and downs. The "up" being that I ran 24 miles total! The "down" being that I have definitely been "binge snack eating." I've been eating healthy/good food--lots of fruits, vegetables, and non-processed/I prepared it from scratch things--but I'm still eating some junk food at work every now and then. I really want to work on the bad food part of my lifestyle, so I think that that will be what I focus on this week, instead of mileage.
Until next time,

Week Two and Three Updates
Hey friends,
I was a little busy last week so I wasn't able to provide an update on how my healthy lifestyle regimen was coming along. From what I remember, I was only able to run 14 miles but I committed to steering away from sweets and junk food at work.
This week, I finally achieved 21 miles. However, inverse to my progress from week two, I have definitely consumed an unhealthy share of junk food at work. I've had nachos, chips, Cheezits, peanut M&Ms, etc. I'm not very pleased with myself and I know that once you get off the wagon, you stay off until you grow sick with yourself...sometimes that takes weeks. But my recognizing that I've made poor choices this week, I think I can make a fast turnaround.
It's Sunday again. The re-start of my week. I am working the last half of eight straight days of work, so the opportunity to partake in unhealthy habits is great. There's also very little "good" food at home right now, so whatever I bring to work...it won't be as "great" a junk food. I'm planning on taking a quick trip to the grocery store to pick up some healthy food. Hopefully it will steer me away from anything bad at work.
As for running, I'm on a three-day hiatus right now. It's raining pretty hard and the gym doesn't open up until noon. I work early afternoon, so I won't have enough time to get any cardio in, so I will make an attempt to run or work out tomorrow. Until next week, adios!
