Why?

Why do I find an 8k SO daunting? I have run a 10k (last summer)

Running: 35minutes (Run/Sprint/Walk/Hills... I was ALL over the place)
Sit-ups: 120
Calories: 695

I can't sort myself out... or wrap my head around the 8k. When I run a 7.5, I actually run a 7.6. So, what is it about the last 400m that I can't get over!!! I am frustrated with myself. I want to progress. Sitting still is what got me into this mess.

Granted I was exhausted. I had already been at work for 11hours and done a SERIOUS spin class. BUT come on!!! I have 8 days to loose 4 pounds!! I can't screw around... I even comtemplating skipping today because I am tired but its the DAMN the BINGO!!

Have I told you about this??? Everyday there are 4 numbers posted for BINGO. You HAVE to go to the gym to get these numbers... below is what my card looks like!
I need ONE more number and I am afraid to miss a day, because if that number comes up then... I will miss it forever!! I am SO damn competitive I WANT to win!! I don't even know what the prize is BUT I am hoping it is a personal trainer session... wouldn't that be motivating?!

So I will go today and challenge the dreaded stairmaster... wish me luck!

Love!


PS - I have a NEW favorite site... bakerella.com. In fact, I am trying the cake pops this weekend!!

  1. You can do it, just keep telling yourself that. Don't psych yourself out. You've already almost done it, the last 400m will be a cake walk.

  2. That bingo thing sounds cool. Is that something your gym does or is it something you came up with
