Oops! Didn't mean to neglect!!!

Sunday. Race for the Cure. I ran it in 39:14!!!! I was in shock! When I rounded the last curve and saw the finish line clock and did the math I'm pretty sure the words "What the fuck?!?!?!?" left my mouth. Kind of loud. And the best thing is I ran the majority of the time!! :)
Did all of Bob's Super Strength dvd. The jury is still out on if I like it or not. It's tough, and I had to take a lot of breaks - and also need to get some weights that let the bar sit a little higher off the floor because I'm killing my knuckles with plank rows and alternating T-stands with my weights now.
Yesterday was the cardio dvd. I'm liking it better - still VERY glad my name isn't Becky. Ha! And I noticed that today was the first time I haven't been sore the day afterwards! Woohoo!!
Today I went back to the gym to run. I decided to take the towel I got from Tiger Balm at the sponsor expo on Sunday and throw it over the display like I've seen some people do. And wow! I didn't get nearly as tired as I do when I can see the display. (I decided to give it a shot since there weren't timers on the route on Sunday and I ran a lot more...I'm thinking that seeing the time does a mental number on me and makes me more tired than I really am.) And wow!! I ran for 30+ minutes at 4.8mph!!! I say + because I stupidly accidentally hit the stop button partway into the run - I guess I got too close to the front rail and my hand hit the stop button on a swing - and had to restart, so my time restarted at 0. BUT I know I started running during the closing credits on Dr. Phil and I stopped when the 2nd episode of Judge Judy came on.
AND I felt great doing it! Stretched out for at least 20 minutes afterwards, and everything feels fine! :) Yay!!!
