There were so many moments in San Diego. Moments I will never, in all my life, let go. Running the entire race with Heather, and crossing the finish line within ONE second of her. That was an amazing moment. (Okay, my favorite part of running with Heather was the fact that her name rubbed off […]

It’s week 1 and I’ve put this post off long enough…. I am down from last week, so that’s good! But I’m still not where I want to be. No one’s fault but my own, though! I am so glad we have a new challenge starting. SO glad. Last week: 140.8 Challenge Start Weight: 140.4 […]

Okay, so it’s been a few weeks since I posted. I blame it on the frustrating injuries I’ve been working through. So there. I’m happy to report that I’m pretty much over all the owies. Yeah, I’m still having issues with my IT bands, but I’ve learned how to deal with it. Taking liberal walk […]

Week 7 of my Team in Training program didn’t go exactly as planned. My biggest fear was realized this week, and I was stricken with some mysterious foot pain. More on that later…. Thanks to my donors this week, I’m officially over the $2,o00 mark. I know it’s not showing up on my fundraising page […]

This week was so hard. Physically, mentally, emotionally. So many times I wanted to give up, give in, QUIT. I didn’t though. On Monday, I got a little crazy and decided to Shred with the Sisterhood. As in Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred. Yeah, um NO. Not a good idea. I had my first 5 […]

Okay, first let me get my weigh-in out of the way, since I didn’t do it on Wednesday. Well, I weighed in, but wasn’t happy, so I didn’t share. Last week: 137.2 (woooohoooooo) This week: 139.6 (boooooooooo. hisssssssss) Being out of town, and not really caring about how much I was eating did it to […]
