End of WLC #3

The WLC ended today.  I did measurements etc and I have done better than I expected.  My workout score increased by 14%, my weight was down by 4 lbs and I lost 2 inches on each of my measurements.  Need to keep it up now....

You can eat too healthy you know....

Made this for Ben after he came home from gymnastics.  He looked at it and said "Is this for me?  You can eat too healthy, you know".  Then he ate the whole thing!!!

Imagine no malaria June run #3

Sam and I did a run in Webster on Saturday. It wasn't timed, so I timed it on my phone.  We ran it in 32:50, probably my "comfortable" time.  I did walk some of it.  It was pretty warm and humid and I much prefer to run in the cold weather.
We chased this mosquito, who was big enough he could hold the flag during the National Anthem!!!!
We look pretty happy that it's over.  We have done 3 runs in June, still planning on doing one every month this year

All American Run-June run #2

Sam and I did the All American 5K yesterday. I have done it every year it's been going, this was Sam's first time doing this run.  It's heralded as the fastest run in St Louis because a lot of it is downhill.  Unfortunately, it is NOT my fastest run.  I really wanted to be under 30 minutes, but I just could not do it.  My final time was 30:49, at least it was 9 seconds faster than last year!!!  I was 11th out of 50 in my age category, so not too bad
My "after picture" has me smiling, but I was not very happy!!!!
Still, I am on target to do a run every month this year.....

First Run in June

Sam and I did the Yoga 6 6K run in Forest park last night (Yoga 6, 6K, 6pm, on 6/6!!!).  It was a really nice run, there weren't too many people (only 87 in total).  Most of the runners were young and fit, so I came 60th out of the 87 but my time was 37:19.  The last time I did a 6K (Stan Musial Bridge), I did it in 38:48, so I was much faster
Our before and after pictures look pretty much the same....
