Hump day post

Last night while I was on the trainer I started watching the celebrity fit club that I had DVRd - don't judge. It was an especially hard workout of whose affects I still felt this morning on my run, so I really needed some mindless crap to get me through the 2 hours. And I find that watching once skinny famous* people who are now fat motivating. Watching a former baywatch chick who now couldnt fit into her red suit keeps me going during those hard-as-hell intervals. But last night I realized something - a couple of these ladies dont weigh much more than I. I realize I have more muscle and it weighs more blah blah, but the fact is, at least two would not qualify for Clydesdale status in a race. I guess this show is so low rent that these were the fattest celebs that VH1 could get to participate. I think one of them had about 10 lbs to lose during the whole show to get to her goal weight. Chris can do that after eating a taco off the street here. There are some funny moments in the show that keep me coming back for more. Like the time Bobby Brown s**t his pants. I can relate. I have come mighty close to that a few times too while doing some long runs.
We leave tomorrow to head back to Texas and eat our weight in queso. I. Cant. Wait. I also have my first run of the season. It is just a 5k and I have very low expectations since I have been sick, but it will be a good way to see where I am fitness wise. And no, we are not flying two hours just so I can run a 5K. We have a friend's wedding in Austin, and I can kill three birds with one stone - running the race, seeing Austin friends, and hitting the wedding. Plus we are staying at the Four Seasons, and I never miss an opportunity to get pampered.
Happy hump day everyone!
*I use both of these terms loosely as some of them were never fit to begin with and very few are above Z list status.
