Okay, so I fell off the planet for a little bit the end of last week, but I'm back.  On Thursday last week I started working again as a floor nurse.  Our days are long and we spend most of it running up and down the hallway on our feet.  My first day on the floor was Sunday and my legs were dead after work!  I'm spending the next couple of weeks trying to work out how to get in my runs and work and not have my legs fall off at the end of the day.  I'm so glad that we (Chris and I) have four months until our run.  I still have plenty of time to find a way to make it work.  So this week was a push on the scale, no gain, no loss.  But eating at work is also another hurdle I will have to jump.  I still can't understand why a hospital would serve food for you that is so unhealthy.  Take this as an example, the main entree the first day I worked was "Chicken Fried Steak" and yesterday it was an "Egg Roll" or "Stuffed Bell Peppers" and Fried Potatoes.....then they wonder why we are all over weight......So on Tuesday I took my Dal and had that.  So I have some issues I need to work out this week.  I'm going to take another look at the training program today and see how I can scale my work days back a little for just a few weeks and then gradually get back to my 10K training plan.  I had wanted to complete the training plan twice before my 10K so I would know that I WAS ready, but maybe one complete training will be good enough.  I also need to get with my cousin to figure out how to post photos and do a few other things in the blog.  And set a goal and schedule for blogging.....but right now I'm feeling the urge to go for a run!
