Walked 30 minutes on treadmill at 3.6 mph pace, jogged 45 minutes at 6.2 mph pace (9:40 minute mile) and walked 45 minutes to cool down at 3.4 mph pace. Had some discomfort in both calves and right hamstring in spite of stretching and warmup. Maybe increasing speed wasn't a good idea, modest amount though it was. I will stretch and be careful a day or two before trying another run. Maybe a decent upper body workout tomorrow.
I am nearly to the 1/4 mark - 20 lbs. - of the weight goal. Clothes feel better, I feel better. Though I am not happy with what I see in the mirror, it is far better than it was just a few weeks ago. Maybe I'll get brave enough to add a 1 January and a 1 February photo when the date comes, if there is enough visible progress to show. No one has really mentioned it much, certainly not people who see me every day. Maybe I'll go find a colleague at work who hasn't seen me since the New Year, and see if they comment on my weight loss.
