I don't know if it's because I ate so much on the weekend, or if it's two days of cardio in a row, but for some reason, I am STARVING today. I just finished my lunch (a chicken fajita, leftover from dinner last night) and all I can think about is the guacamole I've packed for my afternoon snack. I'm drinking lots of water, hoping it will curb the hunger, but so far, no luck. I'm guessing that my morning snack of watermelon was not filling enough, so now that the watermelon is gone, I need to rethink my morning snack (I bought pineapple and strawberries yesterday for my fruit for the week). Tuesdays and Thursdays are Body Pump so I always try and pack protein for my morning snack and I stocked up on a lot of cheese at the grocery store as well. Not craving sweets so much anymore as I am meat and cheese, which is good, but still.. I don't know how I'm going to get through the end of today with just the guacamole. (Though...I DO have some popcorn in my desk so..maybe guac now and popcorn later :).
Tay bought some runners on the weekend, which is exciting because it means he's serious about wanting to run with me. So far, we've designated Sundays and Wednesdays as our days to run together - and we're incorporating finishing our run with a bike ride as well so if I decide to do the duathalon in October, that will help (Tay's I think considering it, and I think now Caius is too). I went out this morning alone and debated increasing my running intervals (3 12 minutes rather than 3 10 minutes), but I decided to hold off another week and see if Tay might be ready to increase with me. Of course, on Sundays and Wednesdays we can still do 3x10 but maybe Mondays (and possibly Fridays - Step is under review ;) I can do 3x12. 3x12 would mean the following:
5 minute warmup
12 minute run
7 minute walk
12 minute run
7 minute walk
12 minute run
5 minute cooldown
Shouldn't be a problem :).

The extra 2 minutes will be fine with me... again the only thing holding me back is the leg. Which was fine the second time we ran but not the 1st or 3rd or 4th time.. but I at least finished the 4th time with taking the longer stride.
