week 6… 2 weeks until the real training beginnings

I upped the anni this week and am running just over 4 miles.  At the end of last week I attempted a 5 mile but hurt my knee in the process.  But since I finished, I knew it was time to kick it up just a notch.  So this week, 4 miles  for 3 days and then this saturday I am going to try and do 6 or 7 miles.  The dailymile.com group is great!  There are a few people I have been chatitng with on there that are trully great inspiration.  Why people run and what they have to go through to get there is amazing.  I almost feel less impressed with myself sometimes because I have no other story besides, I want to get in shape.

There was good and bad news this week, which really confused me.  I did my BMI measurements and I have a larger body fat percentage than I did before.  I am thinking its because I have done less resistance training but that still doesnt make sense because with the exception of my butt and stomach, everything else would be the same.  And my waist is actually smaller than it was for my wedding.  1/2 and inch but it’s still smaller .

I’m just going ot keep on trecking.  I have a lot more energy and feel great!
