From 13.1 to 13......I mean none.

So this semi could go on a wedding wednesday post, but semi not.

For those of you who do not know I ran a half marathon a little less than a year ago now.

A year ago, I was in kick butt training mode. 7 miles was about my average run

and 5 miles was considered a  short running day.

 I was ridiculous. 

However, after my half marathon (&cutting off 10inches of my hair)

school started back up and I became unable to find time/motivation to run.

Well here I am almost a year later and hardly can run a mile let alone 13.1.

Now I am not training for another half marathon, 

however, with my wedding and honeymoon 8 months away I am trying to get my winter pudge off 

and get my dream of Jessica Alba abs.

♥

Now I don't have a gym membershio at the moment because with 11 days left of school

I haven't found the time to be able to go and didn't want to waste the money.

But I have still be trying to make it running

and I have 5lb weights at home to tone with. 

For those of you who want to know. I am not really trying to lose weight.

I am 5'2" and happy with my weight, but would love to be more toned for my wedding/honeymoon.

So I am writing this to hopefully find my motivation to become the work out junkie that I was one year ago.

So please excuse my occasional posts that will be about running and working out.

Also if you have some extra work out motivation please pass it along, as I will be sure to return the favor!

With all this being said.

Fiance and I went on my longest run in about 6 months yesterday.

Only 3 miles.

Kind of pathetic in my workouts but a good start none the less.

The first mile was great, most likely because it was down hill.

But I felt good, no cramps, no burning lungs, just a sweet burn.

Miles 2-3 not so hot. 

My run had 2 large hills, all which were near the end. The first hill hurt but I handled it.

The 2nd hill. I pretty much wanted to stop.

But I didn't. 

Finished the run in just over 29 minutes making my miles at 9.51 a mile.

At t his moment I would like to get them down to 9:45 and eventually right at 9.

Now I need some sort of ab work out that will help me tone up my abs.

My stomach has always been my trouble spot.

I am not even going to tell you how many times I have been asked if I was pregnant.
Which makes me obviouslyupset and want to fight everyone. 

So my stomach is never something I have been able to find good workouts for.

So my lovely fitness bloggers.

If any of you have any tips on what are good workout routines with out a gym.

Or how to find the re-motivation to get back out on the pavement to start running long distance again

please please share.

Only 8 more months to get back in shape.
