Spring Break Quest

This week is Spring Break for me and my kiddos.  Oldest son is actively seeking a job in his particular field and has made great progress on that this week.  I think he is actually at the point where they are just waiting on his drug test results…which will not be a problem.  Younger son is in Hawaii with the band.  He is having a fantastic time and staying very busy in that most beautiful of places.  And my daughter is playing on his XBox while he is gone! heheh  She misses him very much and is pretty bored without him here…I miss him too  

It’s also Spring Break for my trainer.  And he stated at the beginning of the week that he wanted to try to run 50 miles this week.  YIKES!  8-|  Almost every Sunday morning he runs 10 miles.  My church starts earlier than his, so darn shucks, I don’t get to run with him on those days. hehehe  I don’t think I am going to make 50 miles this week, but I am going to run as much as I can.  So far I have 20 miles. Maybe I’ll get 30 which wouldn’t be bad at all for me. 

I have worked super hard this week.  Monday I did kickboxing and ran. Tuesday I ran.  Wednesday I did kickboxing, 3o minutes of lunges, ran and did another kickboxing class. Today I lifted weights for about two hours then ran.  The frustrating part of it all? I’ve only lost half a pound! UGH! I want to get 3.5 more off.  *SIGH*  But sometimes when I’m working really hard like this it is on a time delay and a couple of days later I will drop a pound or two unexpectedly.  I will never understand how my body works! 

Another frustrating part? My trainer had wanted to lose 10 pounds this week.  And he has dropped 7.    ARGH! His metabolism runs about 100 miles an hour all the time anyway, so when he does anything extra he can drop weight fast.  Plus he’s a man…enough said. 

I will let you know how the “quest” ends.  The weight quest….and the 50 mile quest!
