Weekly Chase


Road Runner Girl


Recap of last week:

1. Get in at least three runs!
I went running on Sunday, Wednesday, Friday, AND Saturday! Bam! Plus I'm up to running 1.5 without stopping and I have my mile down to 12:13!

2. Bubble bath.
I actually took two. The first one was only fifteen minutes long before it was interrupted. The second was much longer and involved a glass of wine. Success!

3. Actually work on scrapbooks and organize photos.
:/

4. Make Clay's fruits this weekend.
Done. Well, sorta. I made applesauce and bananas. The will definitely be on the list again next weekend.

5. Make sure I'm drinking enough water.
I did fairly well with this but definitely feel as though there is room for improvement!

6. Think of ideas for spreading love this month.
Uhhhhhhhhhhhh.

7. Stick to the schedule I made for this week!
I did really well, except for taking Clay to yoga. It's only offered two days a week and it's hard to work it in with everything else.

8. Make a list of post ideas for my blog and write some of them!
Done! Check out my other posts from last week!

...and this week I will:

1. Run, run, run & add workouts!
Now that I've got the running thing down I would like to add some workouts to my routine. Liz and I tried one of the Nike Training Club workouts before our run yesterday. Bad idea. I'll add them to my non-running days. My goal is to lose 5 more pounds to get back to my prepregnancy weight before Clay's 6 month birthday. I only have a little over 2 weeks! Eek!

2. Get our morning routine to under two hours.
No matter how much prep work I do the night before it still takes at least 2 1/2 hours for us to get out of the house after waking up. Even if it takes writing everything down in detail I have to improve on this!

3. Water!
I want to start keeping track of my water to make sure I'm getting enough!

4. Get caught up on laundry and not let it get out of control.
I have a 5 month old. Enough said. Hahaha.

5. Complete the Flat Stanley I got and mail it back.
I recently received a Flat Stanley in the mail and I need to get it sent back! I'll be writing a blog post soon about this.

6. Do something nice for someone.
I'm REALLY struggling with this one...

7. Keep up with posting on a regular basis.
I did great with this last week and want to keep it up!

8. Read to Clay everyday!
I think it is SO important to foster a love of reading when kids are young and I hope that Clay enjoys reading as much as I do.

Wow. Eight goals again...sheesh!


As always, good luck to all of my fellow chasers!

Love,
Jess

Great job Jess! That Nike training app is no joke! Definitely have to do that one on non running days! Good luck this week! Sorry you're struggling with the being nice one....just write or text a nice note to a friend or family member...hopefully that will help you with this goal! :-)
