1. Mediocre. I didn't workout as many times as I'd have liked and my eating was all over the place. I did do a sprint triathlon yesterday and surprisingly much better then I expected given my life is a hot mess right now, so that was a nice plus.

2. Stop eating like shit and 4-5 workouts.

3. Short term, ten mile run on Thursday.

4.Long term, October marathon.

5. I was a states qualifying hurdles wayyyy back in the day, so maybe that. I'm also decent on a rugby field having played a few years in college. I would suck at volleyball and definitely basketball. I'm bad at those kinds of sports.

1. I had a rough week. Between cutting my finger and getting it glued shut and getting mastitis I missed 2 of my workouts. But I did manage to run 9.5 miles on Sunday. And somehow we got ice cream so I've been eating kind of crappy.

2. Any healthy changes you are making this week? Hopefully hit all my workouts and don't get hurt/sick.

3. What is a short term health/fitness goal for the week? 4-5 runs, 2 lifting sessions, yoga 1x maybe

4. What is a long term health/fitness goal? Marathon in December

5. Bonus Question: if you were in the Olympics which sport would you be good in? And which would you do horribly? My sport would probably be either basketball or sprinting like the 200m. I would do horribly in the butterfly swim. I have no idea how they do that.

1. How did last week go? Give me the good and the not so good.
Not so great, I was still coming off vacation mode so I wasn't super motivated.

2. Any healthy changes you are making this week?
I'm going to try to start the Couch to 5K program, I've tried before and haven't been successful but will give it another shot.

3. What is a short term health/fitness goal for the week?
Pilates 2x, Run/Walk 2x and long bike ride. Also eating better over the weekend, it's my downfall.

4. What is a long term health/fitness goal?
Lose 60 lbs, I would like to lose 20 by mid October.

5. Bonus Question: if you were in the Olympics which sport would you be good in? And which would you do horribly? Sports and definitely not my thing so I would be terrible at all of them!

Maybe after a few drinks, alcohol seems to help my coordination

1. How did last week go? Give me the good and the not so good. I felt like I was making progress and then I drank and ate like a fool yesterday and think I undid anything positive.

2. Any healthy changes you are making this week? I got all kinds of fruit and vegetables for snacks at work and to have healthy breakfasts. I am adding in a walk with the dogs each day too bc I actually walk less now that I don't commute.

3. What is a short term health/fitness goal for the week? I'm going to try to just not have any bad days this week.

4. What is a long term health/fitness goal? Lose 50lbs. I'd like to lose 10 by Labor Day but it's looking less likely that will happen.

5. Bonus Question: if you were in the Olympics which sport would you be good in? And which would you do horribly? I'd be good at dressage...but bad at pretty much everything else, ha. I'm sooooo un-athletic!

It changes a lot...been doing an egg and some cheese on a little wrap (kind of like Dunkin donuts wake up wrap) recently.
Sometimes I do a shake or smoothie.
Sometimes I do grapenuts with fruit.
