Greenville 5k

We did it girls!!!!
(And Isaac! Who got 2nd for his age group!)

I placed 70th, out of 441.
My time was 25:01, which I am very happy with!


*Just wanting to brag on a few of my fellow runner's time:
Kait (who hates running and claims she is finished)~ 23:39
Charity (without her encouragement on the last mile, I would have walked)~ 24:58
Sheri (very proud of her!)~ 28:06
Isaac (2nd place)~ 22:51
*there were others that I knew that ran, but only sharing times of those that read this blog.


Here is the link with the results .
Here are pictures .Which I am thankful that I am not in them! They are funny to look at though, lol.
It was HOT & HUMID, and you can see it on everyone's miserable face...other than a few that still looked cute, which is ridiculous! LOL!

Too Busy.............To Diet?

My good intentions are getting me no where.

Lately, it seems that I start my week off great,
and things get crazy-busy.
And I just find it easier to eat the bad stuff,
because................ it is easy!
:]

At one point, I feel discouraged.........
at another, I could care less,
and right now ..........I am somewhere in the middle.
Not really discouraged, kind of caring,
and still not ready to give up.

To be very honest, this has been the hardest time......
I have ever had, sticking to it!

And I wonder if it has something to do with being at a place in my life,
where I am not as self-conscious as I use to be.
I have become confident in God's love for me.
I know Cleyo loves me, for who I am.
Beauty is fleeting.
And some times...pasta brings me joy!


So.....just thought I would update,
even when I don't have good news.

Here I go......

Today I am officially signing up for a 5k, and a 10k.
Charity shared with me last week that she has also signed up for both of these.
If you would like to join us, just sign up, and let us know.
We would love for you to join us!

So, the REAL training begins.
I have started a new private blog.
I have been inspired by a few people's success stories, of what they have accomplished in 12 weeks.
So I decided to give it a  "try".
I will be posting private info, including weekly pictures.
So, it will not be open to just anyone.
Only to women that would like to be a part of my 12 week journey (by letting me know),
and that I can trust to keep my personal info and pictures, private.

So....here I go.............
I am thinking that there has to be something motivating about seeing pictures of yourself overweight?
