Running is tough work:

I am not going to be one that says running is easy and is for everyone because quite simply it is not.  But if you are able to get up and get out there and do it...it can be one of the best feelings in the world. 

Today was a tough day and I didn't have my best run but I can feel good that I was able to get up, get out and get done in 33 minutes.  Yep that is not a blazing fast time (11 min per mile) and I did fade a bunch at the end...10 min pace at 1 mile, 10:30 min pace at 2 miles and then 11 min pace at 3 miles...but I did complete all 3 miles...and now that I am sitting at my desk writing this blog post I have to admit I feel good, my legs are sore, but I feel good. (and I am stinking hungry already and it's only 10:10 am)

So far it seems that my increase in calories is not adversely affecting my weight loss.  I am feeling fuller then I have recently but I am still hungry at night, so I need to make sure I don't snack. The scale said 285-286 this morning...so I'll go with it.
