P90X is once again on a break because I need to focus on cardio and losing as much weight as possible during this final stretch. Weigh in is tomorrow and this week was tough.
I ran 5K last night and if there's anything that I am grateful for regarding P90X is that it took away my shin splints - something that I've always had throughout my life and a major part of the reason why I hate to run. I felt that "runner's high" for the first time last night and basically ran 5K in about 32 minutes. Some of you may think that this is a slow pace, and it very well could be, but it was fast for me. The last time I ran a 5K I was in worse shape and I finished in 47 minutes, about halfway through the race I had major shin splints in my left leg and literally almost collapsed due to pain.
Kris has made me crave Philly Cheesesteaks due to her Facebook update and I am seriously hoping that we get some while in Philly this Saturday evening!

To my fellow competitors: I am the lightest I've ever been within the past 10 years, so even if I don't win, thank you for motivating me to get in shape and be healthy once again. At least my doctor won't tell me that I am living in the body of a 40-something year old!
