Cheating.

I feel like I have been majorly cheating on my training schedule. :/ It's been 5 weeks, and I am so thrilled that I am still going! It feels good to accomplish something and push my body, because it can do such cool things.

There was only one day that I was really sick that I didn't do anything at all, but then the past 2 times I've gone to run, the treadmills are all broken. So I've done elliptical and the recumbent bike instead, and then some ab and leg strength training? I know doing something is probably better than doing nothing, I just am frustrated feeling like I'm not on training or doing exactly what I decided I would do. SOMEONE FIND ME A TREADMILL. I'm going a little stir-crazy, because I've started to LIKE running. Don't talk about it. Anyway. Is doing those things going to be a set-back to my training? Anyone know? Also, does anyone know of somewhere relatively tool free where I can buy a day-pass to work-out in Provo? I would just run outside, but did you watch the news last night? I have to wait until April before I feel safe doing that. Only Kaysville won't betray me.

Also. I don't know if anyone else feels like this... but the more I exercise, the more I want to snack. ALL THE TIME. So... I've gained weight and not in muscle. I'm not flipping out over that at all, but for future reference, maybe I need to be more diligent in finding healthy snacks on Pinterest or something.

Anyway. That's my update. Also, I am signing up to do this race:

Who wants to join me?! From what I hear, you can even be not-so-much a runner and still enjoy it. It's so muddy and fun, you won't even notice you did three miles.
