Friday's 10km run

I'm on Day 4 and a half with NO sugar and managing...
Keep having to remind my family that I cant eat certain food or drink wine etc...
But thankfully they all understand, they just forget.

I have not trained all week after being told to wait a while before running.
This morning I decided I was going to go out and see how my body felt..if it was ready.

I left home and walked the first 625meters ~ could feel a sensation in my right hip, the side where I was told my leg was shorter than the other ~ my hip was then manipulated into place..
I then stated running and ran slowly at first but then started to run to see if I could better my 5 km time I set last week...I did...its now 29 mins 27 ....
I then had to slow down the 5 km returning...
So walked for 2 mins
Ran for 4 and walked for 1 min, 2x
Ran for 10 mins
Walked for 2 mins
Then the hill up home I ran 1 mins, walked 1 min....

Felt good that I had managed the 10 km in 1 hour 9 mins 45 sec.

This evening my right hip is a little on the sore side, didn't feel it when running, just an uncomfortable sensation, but pain free.
Now I feel a little pain when I walk....but not too bad...

I will not run this weekend, give my hip a rest...but its still NO sugar till the 9th then see from there if I have to continue this no sugar journey...

I am now wearing my daughters jeans that she no longer can wear!!!!
Such a good feeling for me, but not my child!



My precious 3 week old Christmas Nunu...took photo yesterday while visiting her.
