Most of you know my workout history, right? I mention it on my Workout Progress page (which I’m not updating as much as I should). It’s a very summarized version of my personal workout history but if you look at a stream of old posts since starting this blog you’ll get a pretty good picture [...]

Really, I’m not kidding, there aren’t. I realize I’m telling this to those who probably know but it needs to be said aloud. I feel compelled to tell you…

I did it! This morning was the Baltimore Running Festival and I did my 6 mile relay. It was the longest I ever ran and I loved every minute of it!
Don’t get me wrong, about 4 miles into it I was playing mind games with myself and I started to question if I could [...]

I FINALLY finished a chapter in my cookbook today. I can’t believe it. Only 4 more to go! Ugh! Why didn’t anyone tell me how time consuming it was going to be! I have to admit though, it’s fun.

Remember how confident and cocky I was when I posted the weekend quote. Yea, well, I sure enjoyed myself this weekend. I enjoyed the stuffed shells, fresh Italian Bread, Chocolate Cheesecake, meatballs, pizza a-n-d ice cream. Mixed in with all the indiscretions was a lot of healthy stuff too, whole wheat pancakes, papaya [...]

First the run, only for the pure fact that I’m ecstatic about it and I just ran (no pun intended) out of time last night to tell you all!

WOW! I mean, I signed up for the relay knowing that I’d have to run 6 miles but I never really thought of actually running it [...]

Call me crazy. Go ahead, but man I feel great! Two boot camps, a weight training session and I climbed the wall, twice (once alone and then again after the toddler asked if he could watch.)
The real wacky part of this…

I’m forgetting something on my food journal, I just know I am but that’s ok, I had a great day! House is clean, (some) work’s been done, made a new mix (see below) and got a good run in.

I can’t help myself, I have to blurt it out…. I RAN 4 MILES TODAY! Me? **looking from side to side** *pointing finger to self* That’s right, ME and I have PROOF…

Now I did walk twice for about a total of a minute.

I don’t have much time but I wanted to post my food journal and run today. I didn’t hit 40 minutes but I came close. Especially considering I didn’t track time. I just ran and ran and RAN (every nook and cranny of my community) when I got home I looked at the time [...]

What the HECK was I thinking?! A few girls from the Boot Camp class this morning convinced me to sign up for the Y’s 8 week fitness challenge. As if I didn’t have enough things on my plate, now I’m committed. In all honesty, I’m excited. I think this is what I need to [...]

I DID IT! Yup, 40 minutes. I can’t believe it! and I was fine, I didn’t keel over, I didn’t die of a heart attack, I actually ENJOYED myself. Whoa, I’m still in shock myself. Every time I run I look more and more forward to the relay. Oh! and I did this run with [...]

Here’s what I discovered about myself. I LOVE running at dusk. What a great way to end the day. I love seeing the sun going down, reflecting on the day, relaxing and getting in a little “me” time before vegging out with the husband. I love it! The funny thing about running when darkness falls [...]
