The end of last week was shot with me being lazy and the weather dumpy so I resolved to start the new week better.  Ran 3 easy miles with Ralphie after dinner in the cold and wind.   Did my 100 pushup training.  Scale still not moving

Ran on the treadmill tonight.  Easy 1 mile warm up (8:30) then 2.5 miles @ 7:30 with sprint at the end and then .4 cool down.  Total time 31 minutes with average pace of 7:54.  Felt fine and comfortable.

 

On a super snazzy note, It looks like the weight loss train is back in town and maybe I'll this 2 week plateau is over.  Fingers crossed!.  In addition, I had my cholesterol checked for free at the university and my total came back 167! (they only split it if you come back high).  This is fabulous news and way lower than I hoped for.  I had it checked 3 years ago at probably my most unhealthy and out of shape.  It was 218 (LDL 141, HDL 68, Tri 45), while the HDL was good the LDL was higher than I'd like.  I guess eating healthy and exercising more pays off.

Rode the trainer for 45 minutes after din and then did my push-up challenge training.  It's getting hard and tonight was the first night I did not complete the set fully
