I ended up only running twice last week. My plans for running were not successful at all. I did nothing all weekend and feel super guilty! I knew my lack of motivation was due to my lack of love for running at this point. It's still so new and trying to jump in head first was not a good plan. I've gone back to the drawing board and think I've come up with something that will work better.
New plan:
Run 5K Monday's, Wednesday's, and Friday's and do Pilates on alternating days, Tuesday's, Thursday's, and Saturday's. Rest on Sunday.
I'm thinking this plan will work much better especially being out of town for work so much, and no real set schedule setup till now.
If I don't have a plan of action I'll never stick to running! I'm sure we all can relate to this in some way!
WEEK 2:
7/23/12
Started off with Pilates as I forgot to pack my gym shoes :-( My plan is not starting out well, but I did try to get my heart rate up and do my best without shoes in my hotel room.

Also, I signed up for Houston's The Color Run. It's another 5K that involves a white t-shirt and lots of colored powder. As you run by the sidelines, they decorate you by tossing various colored powder in the air and you run through it! It's going to be super fun, I can't wait!
