If any of you are actually reading my training reports, you’ll know that I seem to have some problem making it for “Tuesday’s Training Report” and I end up posting on Wednesday anyway. Today when I realized it was Wednesday and once again I had failed to post my training results, I decided I was going to try “Weekly Wednesday Workout Report” on for size. It has a nice ring to it, so we will see.
To bring you up to speed, I’m currently in week 4 of my training for the Cleveland Marathon Series, whether it’s the 5k, 8k, 10k, half marathon or full marathon. I also have a few half marathons after Cleveland, but I’m staying focused on Cleveland right now.
Most of my past efforts carry me through a solid two weeks of training, or weight loss, or clean eating. I’m really proud to report that I’ve made it through the third week, and I’m even into my fourth week and I’m still training, I’m still working out, I’m still working on my weight, and I’m still working on clean eating. YAY!
I’m kind of in a hurry so I’ll make this quick. While I didn’t post about my weight in weeks 1 and 2, today I’m happy to report that as of yesterday’s weigh in, I’ve lost a total of 8.2 pounds in 3 weeks. YAY again!!
