Finding New Ground

I have been waiting and working slowly all winter long for this to happen and I have had success. I BROKE THROUGH TO THE TEENS! 218 for two days in a row.
I saw it coming and supported the goal by running 3 miles on Sunday, running 2 miles and walking 1 mile on Monday, and an hour of Step Aerobics on Tuesday. Now I need to keep those numbers rolling down the scale.
Challenges coming this week. One of my project managers is coming to the office Wednesday, that means lunch out at the BBQ place. I will be running after work and have cereal for dinner I guess.
Thursday I begin an out of office project, I have no idea what will happen there. I plan to go check out a different fitness center since I will be in town for the next couple of months. That should be interesting.
My sister-in-law is visiting from out of town for the weekend, that means dinner out at the steak house on Friday. They should have something light on the menu, but will I order it? Friday is my day off from running, but I plan to do some stairwell laps during breaks.
Saturday is a family picnic. I can be moderate, especially when I want to run a hard loop in town afterwards.
Sunday will be a long easy run in the hayfields. Okay there is nothing easy in the hayfields, but I can keep my heart rate in a middle zone and be good.
So anyway, this week will be a challenge, but those will happen forever to come. We just keep dealing with it. Goal for next week - 216.
