WOW! I don't believe it.

I have a route that I follow from my house that is 5.86km long. I run/jog all but two very steep hills of it and it used to take me around 50 minutes. On Saturday I did it in 45min, Sunday was 44min 30sec, Monday was 43 min 10 sec and this evening I knocked another massive 1min 40 sec off to complete it in 41min 30 sec! It is so rewarding to see my level of fitness improving and my enjoyment of exercise continue to grow.

This journey frustrates me sometimes!

After being really good for two weeks, including eating my yoghurt only at an enormous morning tea at work TWICE, running and walking for exercise, I only lost a mere 100g at weigh in tonight. Sometimes I think "I way as well as have the pies, cakes and biscuits at the morning teas" but then I say "No, I don't need them and then the results would have been even worse!"
But it is sometimes hard to stay focussed and motivated when you don't get the results for your efforts.
Never mind, try again next week.
