50 Total Miles (since starting training)!!!

So tonight I reached 50 total miles logged since joining DailyMile and beginning the training for the half marathon!  I have logged 14 miles this week (a record since starting) and am feeling great!  Today was supposed to be a "rest" day but since I rested so much last week I figured it would be okay to not take it.  I've been watching a lot of "Biggest Loser" lately and it is so inspiring.  I want to lose weight too (an undisclosed amount...don't want too much pressure!) but obviously not as much as those contestants.  But if they can lose hundreds of pounds, why can't I drop the ones that are bugging me?  So I figure with the running and eating more fruits/vegetables, that will help a lot.  I'm also considering taking some boxing classes at LA Boxing, although I need to look into things such as pricing.  Anyway, instead of taking a rest day, I walked for 5 miles, varying the incline.  It felt great and I didn't strain myself.  I walked in my EasyTones (which I love) and watched Biggest Loser on my iPhone.  All in all?  Great way to end the day!
