GO!

I found a marathon I want to run in. It is on August 28th. It has the option of a half marathon or a whole marathong- I will register later after deciding what I am ready for. BUT I figured if I have a goal date in mind- I will work harder for it.

So tonight I am going to the gym and going to walk, walk, walk, some running until it is time for my class at 7pm. need to work on some inclines. I want to do as much as I can and work my way up. I know I can do this!!

I watch Biggest Loser, and I think that I would never survive a week on the ranch!!! And I see all that they do. I know I can work harder and push myself. I know I can do this. So on your marks.... get set...GO August 28th

until I blog again.....

get ready.....

Well, Since my last post I have had foot surgery (that was scheduled) and spent 4 days in the hospital sicker than I even want to remember. My tonsils were so huge!!! I sounded like I had a golf ball in my throat when I could talk but that took almost three days to get to that point. I will be having those out in March. It was awful. I hear the surgery is awful but if I can swallow my own spit life will be good.

So my marathon training has been slow. However- I did get started last week. I went to two classes at the gym - LOVED THEM!! walked on the treadmill with a little bit of running, did the eliptical weight loss program, some weights and extra ab work as well. I felt really good. I made some bad food choices, but i will get my hind end back in gear. So I am starting!!!

I am so excited in my work with the New Hope program at the hospital. I went and presented our educational seminar in Logan UT yesterday- I LOVE teaching about the new lifestyle. I love seeing the excitement in the patients. I love helping people get started in this wonderful journey!!

I have more seminars in March - I really hope to get those seats filled up!
