Losing weight means losing your sense of humour...

So after posting yesterday for the first time in a couple of years it came to my attention that several things have changed:

1) I have lost 2 stone, by change in lifestyle alone, no faddy diets here, yay!

2) I have started a new career as a Physics teacher, possibly a major cause of the weight loss (running after late homework)

3) I have ditched the boyfriend, possibly a major cause of the previously expanding waistline (portion size competitiveness and Friday night takeaways)

4) I have lost my ability to write, my overview for this blog is quite frankly boring, C for achievement, 4 for effort

After 20 minutes searching for my elusive i-pod, which then wasn't working, I stepped out into the rain for a 30 minute run.  My thighs screamed blue murder at me all the way round, but I made it :)

The thigh screaming is entirely self afflicted as I completed an hours dance class after yesterday's run.  Not the most sensible thing to do, but oh so fun.  I'm paid up for a series of 6 classes with one of the top UK dancers in this particular genre, and with all the other girls having dropped out it's turned into a one-on-one lesson.  Awesome! But HARD work.

So, onto the nitty gritty, summary of today's run:

Distance: 2.92 miles

Mile 1: 10:02

Mile 2: 10:14

Mile 3: 10:30

Total: 30:50

Music: none

Pre-run Snack: half a tin of peaches

Post-run Snack: about to knock up some grilled chicken
