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!

Knowing your limitations!

Today I had a 5 mile run scheduled, but I just wasn't feeling it. First, it was 27 degrees out and I was already fighting a sore throat. Plus, my hips have been sore. So I decided to hit the gym and jump on the eliptical runner. I did 5 miles, then did a quick** mile (9:23) on the treadmill. Tomorrow I hope to do Yoga, and maybe that will open up my hips some!
