| Location: Ypsilanti,MI,United States Member Since: Dec 13, 2008 Gender: Female Goal Type: Marathon Finish Running Accomplishments: I started running last year, my first race was December 2008. It was my first 5k. In the past year I have done 5k's, a 5 miler, 10k, 10 miler and my first half marathon. I started running so I could keep off the weight I had lost (70 pounds). And in running, I have found solace, peace, and friendships. Short-Term Running Goals: My goals for 2010 are:
*2150 total miles
*finish a walking/jogging marathon
*a 2 hour half marathon Long-Term Running Goals: I want to take each year as it comes.
2009 goal was just to run. I did make the goal of 2000 miles. It was my first year running. I will update my total on the 31st of January.
Personal: This past year has been frought with difficulty, trials, and stress. But it has also been a blessing. I learned what I can do, what my body can do, and how to make myself what I want to be.
My three kids have been a wonderful inspiration, and my husband, not matter how we fuss, fit or fight, is ultimately my best friend. |

Had a rough weekend. visited some family, and ate at a pizza buffet. bad thing for a carb-aholic! but i let myself be bad for a day. not too bad!
Did my morning run. I feel much better running between a 8:30 and an 8 min mile. feels good to get my legs going and pounding!
did a quick 45 min run. feeling better today. yesterday I was coming down from a carb high!
oh got a job offer from RF. The job that I have wanted. But since my daughter is in half day pre school, I have to be here for her when she gets home at 12. I told them that, and RF said that my time will come, and I will eventually get to work there! I can't wait! | | Add Comment |

Yet another day of running and just trying to stay sane. my 7 year old figured out that if he tells the teacher he is sick he gets to come home. second time in two weeks...no fever, no outward symptoms, and he is just fine when he gets home. So, he will be home for the rest of the week, in bed, and no halloween. If he is sick, he shouldn't be outside in the night air, or watching tv. he needs his rest.
got my morning run done, and now i am gearing up for another run. I need to vent my frustrations. oh yeah, and my daughter decided she didn't like her fruit punch, and poured it all over the carpet. lucky me!
did my second run..5.29 miles. felt good. my bum hurts, due in part to the weights I wear on my ankles all day! Adds more resistance and makes my butt work harder!
Did my weigh in...136.2. Down 4 pounds. Not bad. If I keep up this hard work, I will make my goal of 128 by December 5th! I hope! | | Comments(1) |

Did a nice run this morning. skipped yesterday's afternoon run. I will do my best to make up the miles today and tomorrow, but if I don't no biggie. I'm a week ahead of schedule on weight loss, so I'm not gonna stress over it!
did my second run, but somehow turned the tready off at 4.1 miles...I wanted to do more, so I jumped on for another 15 min...felt good cause I was pissed! *tee-hee* | | Comments(1) |
