Today's a New Day

Today is a new day. I woke up today with the attitude that I am going to over come this slump, and I am going to drop the bad attitude. I am going to quit being mad and frustrated, because I have no one to be mad at, but myself. BUT I am going to use that as motivation to kick my butt into gear and make sure I quit skipping workouts. Yes, I let myself backslide A LOT, but the only thing to do from here is pick up the pieces, and start getting back to where I was. I already logged my coffee in My Fitness Pal and I will be off to Physical Therapy in a little bit. Today is the beginning of the end of my slump!

On a much better note, I registered for the Bolder Boulder last night! I decided to look it up because I heard people talking about it, and then I panicked when my running friend, Alex, said it usually sells out EEEK!!! No worries, I got it in :-) And not only did I get in, but my 5k time from last weekend got me into one of the qualified start groups! I was pretty excited/proud about that. It may of been one of the last ones, but I don't care! I think I may try and run another 5k between now and then because if I can get under 29:30 I will qualify for a faster start group. Right now I am in the 1:08.00 start group, but if I can show a time of under 29:30 in a 5k I will qualify for the 1:02.00 group which is closer to where I want to be. My goal was to do the 10k color run in June in under an hour, so I would like to do this one pretty close to that since it's 12 days before the color run haha. I know there will be TONS of people to catch up to that will be running faster, but I think if I was surrounded, by people who were running that speed it would make me keep the pace. I don't know we'll see what happens! Before I head off to PT I will leave you with pictures from the 5k in Laramie. (ok it won't let me copy and past them in here, so I am just putting in the links)

And here's me finishing.... yep once again another really attractive picture. The boyfriend's exact words were "you look like your dying" Well that's because that's pretty much how I felt.
