December Challenge update

December 9, 2008

After catching up on some of your lovely bloggies I realized that I haven’t posted an update on my December Challenge yet.  No I’m not hosting a contest or anything, this is just a personal challenge I decided to start after Bobbi’s “Pile On The Miles” challenge.  Basically I just want to beat my 63.57 total mileage from the POTM challenge during the month of December.  I’ll be totaling all the miles I run or walk from December 1st – December 31st.  Well, not all the miles I walk because I’m not counting the walk to and from the subway on my way to and from work every day…  that just seems obsessive to me.  Basically if I go on a long 2+ mile walk and can track the mileage then I will add it – if not it’s not going to get counted.  So… total mileage as of 12/09 is: 20.46 miles.  Not too shabby, but if I want to beat 63.57 I’d better start hitting the pavement!  The plan is to run in the a.m. the rest of the week, but we’ll see how that goes since I have a holiday party at the Plaza Hotel for work on Thursday (excited!!).img_22021

untitledimg-2195.jpgLunch today was some leftovers from last night… diced Rosemary Roasted Acorn Squash over some brown rice.  I also had a strawberry Chobani and a massive Macintosh apple (same pic from yesterday guys, sorry…  I know, it’s kind of a boring sounding lunch, but I refuse to buy groceries this week.  Between Christmas gifts, semi-mandatory office $$ donations, rent, etc. I am feeling the economic state of our country.  Boo to that!!  You will see lots of food being used up from my pantry and fridge this December!!
