official start! :)

So like I said last week, I'm officially starting my 30 Day Shred today. I haven't done the workout yet, but I totally plan on doing that tonight when I get home from work. I really, really, want to do well, or at least, try to stick to something... and it's only for 30 days, so I have to at least try and do it. I know I'm always terrible, especially at starting things and then eventually just getting side track, etc. Although I can proudly say I am still sticking to running... just not so often as I did during the summer for a few weeks.

Anyway, speaking of running, Mark and I did our planned jog around Golden Gate Park yesterday. We started by the Polo Fields, ran down MLK and around to JFK and back... to the Polo Fields parking lot. It wasn't so bad... a quick 3.1 mile jog. Of course, Mark's pace is much faster than mine, so he finished his in 27 minutes. I did mine under 32 minutes. So overall, we did good.. met our goals, etc. Mark really enjoyed this jog so I think we're going to do it again. We've decided that one day out of the work week we'll go jogging after work before actually going home. I know that once I get home, I don't really feel like going out again. So anyway, that's what we've planned for this Friday. Let's hope we stick with it.

Oh, we went to the movies yesterday after the 49er's game. Saw Eagle Eye, wasn't too bad. I liked it.. Mark did too. I'm glad we finally got out and watched a movie. It's been a while since we've last seen something at the movie theatre.

Alright, here's what I've eaten/plan to eat for today:
