Today is the first day of December and all I can do is sit here and wonder where the time went. Each year the time seems to pass by faster and faster and if anyone has any idea on how to make it slow down, please share! 

November was a high mileage month and it gives me hope for a couple things. If I am able to keep up the mileage like this then I should be able to have a good amount in savings by the time I sign up for The Dopey Challenge. This month I added $107.78 miles to my savings, bringing me to $514.87 (enough to pay for the race). My goal is a lot more than that as I will also need to pay for a hotel, a flight for Patrick and myself, and of course money for food and souvenirs. To date I am 17% to my goal.

The other thing it gives me hope for is that I can easily reach my goal of 1250 miles for the year if I am able to keep that distance up. I plan on starting that goal in January, so it's important to see what I did right on the high mileage months. 

Yesterday's long distance run was also day 41 of my running streak. As each day passes I reach a new longest distance and it keeps me wanting to go out for my run. Unfortunately this week I did the bare minimum on quite a few days and only completed the one mile. I know that this still counts towards my goal, however I do tend to want to do more and feel better when I am able to do more. That's one thing I'd like to work on this week, actually getting in my scheduled workout.

I'm not able to do the Jillian Michaels DVD on Friday because my parents are having their Christmas bunko party. I'm not able to do more on Saturday because I'm going to a fashion show with my mother in law and bonus (step) daughter. I actually think this will be a good week for me to accomplish everything I have scheduled. 

In other news, I took progress pictures tonight. I can definitely tell a difference in the forward facing photo, however I was standing a little different in the side photo and can't really see any difference. I'm still noticing that I am pointing out the negatives about my body, but making progress!
