Fitness results so far

Last night I did my best mile yet. I've taken my time for two miles down four and a half minutes! At this rate, I'll be at a ten minute mile in no time. I should sign up for a 5K or something. I know that a ten minute mile isn't a good time by any standard except my own, but I will be very pleased when I get there. I also increased my arm curl and chest and lat weights. Success: Yes, I Can Has!

I've noticed that in the morning I'm significantly slimmer than I am by nightfall, which is interesting. Beer also tends to make me more bloated than anything else, so... goodbye for now, old friend. I also have less fat on my legs and arms, and my butt is firmer. My under-chin area also has less fat on it, so yay.

I also got myself a proper sports bra yesterday, and it's comfy. I think I probably baffled the cashier with my assortment: sports bra, men's running pants, lotion and men's body wash. I know that the scent of one's body wash doesn't really matter, but I'd rather not smell like lilacs or ocean breeze, thanks.

I've also been on a mad hunt for new interesting music. If you have any suggestions, please leave a comment!

Any personal grooming magazine can tell you body wash scent TOTALLY makes a difference.

Your pores open up with heat and steam and the scent DOES cling to your hair, since it also ridiculously porous.

It also clings to your bath towel. Woody's towels always smell like boy. And when I use them with my Tahitian vanilla pomegranate exfoliating body wash, his towels smell really WEIRD after.
