In June 2011 I decided to partake in a journey that would change my life in ways that I could not imagine.

Running.

Heavier than I had ever been, I decided to stop playing games with myself, with my life. If I continued on the path I was on, I would be unhappy for the rest of my life. I have two beautiful little girls that deserve to have their mother around for many many many years. I want to make them proud. I want to teach them to be healthy, active, happy. I signed up for my first ever 5k, Oct 15, 2011. I downloaded the C25k app on my phone, and after summer vacation, I hit the road. At 208 lbs.

Fast forward to August 2014. Heavier than I even was before, and stopped running. Time to stop making excuses and get serious!

5 miles!

Had a beautiful 5 mile run this morning! I hadn't run all week, so I surprised myself with an av 9:47 pace!

Turkey Trot on 11/24 - goal, beat my Baltimore 5k time by a minute. So 28:17.

Celtic Solstice on 12/17 - Under 50 minutes.
