Running in the Wind

Sunday morning i had a great run, but boy was it windy. Went out for a 5.75mile run from my house down to bayshore and out to the end of Ballast Point Pier. Then headed back, and that is when the wind started kicking my butt. But it was a great run, i was really starting to feel tired, fighting the wind, but at the same time it was just another challenge to overcome.


I heard a quote the other day that really epitomizes what i am doing i feel.

"A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials. "

There is a lot of truth to that. Those days that it starts to hurt a bit on the run, i just think of that and know that without some trials i will not be able to achieve all that i want to.


So a couple of training and weight loss notes.

So far this week i have already run 9.25 miles
I have my first 5k this Saturday
I am currently down 80lbs
And have lost 44 inches of fat.
I ran 80miles for the month of September
