Saturday Workouts

Don't mean to stomp on anyone's effort, but didn't see a Saturday's Workout thread, so I decided to start one -- that is since I had something to enter!

The month of July for me is focused on obtaining my post-op -100 milestone, which would also bring me to a total lost of 140 lbs. :) 

Focus, focus, focus is the name of the game for me this month!

Donna - I hope you achieve that goal!  However, I think your fitness achievements are more extraordinary that the number on the scale.   I ran 9.66 miles and walked about an additional mile. It was tough, but I was so happy to get the miels in. We are having some awful weather for running, it has been a long humid streak here.   Mary

I put in an 8 mile run at a 10:04 pace, but my legs felt like lead today.  I really had to focus to keep them moving forward.  I'll do my long bike ride Sunday and then take it a little easy for the rest of the week.   Next Sunday is my Boilermaker 15K, the race that lured me into becoming a runner.  I'd like to finish in under 90 minutes; so, I need to have fresh legs.
