Sunday is the Big Day!!

 

Sunday is the Navy's 23rd Bay Bridge run! I am so excited to prove that I can do this! Check back on Sunday for pictures and updates.

155!!!

Wow I am so stoked this morning I have not been 155 in over a year this was my lowest weight I have gotten to in a very long time. I would love to say it was easy but it wasn't but you know what I earned it this time and I know it will stay off! 22 more days until my race and I found out that my husbands flight to Afganistan has been pushed back so he will be able to watch me!!! I will have to update my pictures this week. Have a great day!

I Just Ran 4 Miles!!

I am so happy this is the distance for my race that is coming up in May and I can already do it!! I now just need to work on the time but just over 40 min isn't too bad. I really hope that I am not posting in 6 months that I have just run a half Marathon or something crazy like that because then I will officially be crazy!!

Finally I Broke Through the Plateau

Finally I broke through the plateau after months of hovering around 165lbs today I saw 163.4 I was so excited! On top of that after my run this morning I will hit 100 miles! Cool to know that you can go from a non runner to a runner in 100 miles.

Off to a Day of Working Out

So it's 8 am and I am getting ready to go hit the gym. First will be my stroller class which I love minus the part where the trainer makes us do intervals running up hills! It is good training for my race though. Then I get to have a little snack and play time with my little guy before we head inside for 20/20/20 class which I also love. So when all is said and done I will have done 2 hours this morning and I know I will feel great. It is funny how a couple months ago I would never have done this. Hope everyone finds something they love doing and does it today!

Week 16

Well it's week 16 and I'm feeling great! I realize that overall I have only lost 1.8 lbs but for once in my life it doesn't matter! 16 weeks ago I could not run at all now I can run 5k straight! 16 weeks ago I was searching for my kids candy and eating all of it in one sitting and now I savor one desert a week. I also remember 16 weeka ago that I would wake up and dread going to the gym and now I can't wait to go to the gym or run! I can tell that this time is diffrent I taken it slower and changed my mind not just my body. Can't wait to see where I will be 16 weeks from now!

I Did My First 5k!

This morning I completed 5k for the first time in my life! It felt great, it would have been better had I not been pushing a two year old in a stroller. Anyway I never thought this day would come and now that it has I feel so empowered. I got an idea from watching Yes Man, I am going to try to take pictures while on my run here are a few from when I was done this morning. It might be a cool way to see where everyone runs. Have a great day!
