- last run was a week ago (WHAT?)
- left the house at midday (wayyy too hot)
- misread temperature as 71 instead of 81
- didn't check humidity
- only ate a banana before heading out
- probably some other stupid stuff that I'm forgetting
Blisters are non-existent, which is good, but my back muscles are really sore. I think it's a combination of the distance and the fact that I was wearing the CamelBak my momma recently gifted me (which I love). It makes me sad that something that brings me so much joy (and hydration) could strain my muscles so much.
The half-marathon is two weeks from today. I need to put in some serious work.

This is an excellent post as weight training has been ignored when it could be better for weight loss than cardio. I am not a body builder but train with weight pretty hard 3-4 days a week and go mountain biking, snowboarding, wake boarding, and many other active sports. I rarely do cardio as I try to stay active and weight training keeps my metabolism high and a fat burning a machine.
I'm pretty sure you're the first blogger I've heard mention actually completing the 30-Day Shred, so major kudos to you. Congrats! And yes, muscle weighs more. Don't let that number get you down. Think of how you feel, how your clothes fit, and that's what matters. Not some stupid number on a scale.
