Quick Update!

I haven't been posting lately, but I am still running :)  I am just running for fun now... through the holiday season then 1/2 marathon training will begin and I'll be back to blogging mode, full force!  Hope everyone has a very blessed holiday season...

Happy Running Ya'll!

3 Mile Run

My sister's wedding was this Saturday and needless to say we were all so crazy busy decorating and getting last minute things ready for the big day.... which basically means fast food, quick and easy convenience type foods and a whole lot of not exercising to boot.  Basically I totally slacked off all weekend.  But today, I did my 3 mile run and felt like I was back to normal and full of energy.  I can definitely tell a difference on the days I run vs. the days I am lazy.  I have found a form of exercise that I truly love to do, helps lose weight, build confidence, want to eat healthier, sleep better and will tone and firm you up... plus it's free.  I mean what the heck could be better?  lol  Anyway, back at it tomorrow... getting so excited and ready for the holidays!

Happy running ya'll!

New 1/2 Marathon Training Program.

Ok, so I forgot to blog about my run on Monday.... woops.  I didn't follow the B210K training program.  I am wanting to run the Gusher 1/2 marathon, so I am switching to a different training program soon that is more focused on endurance and training for longer races.  Monday's run was fabulous, and felt amazing....especially since I took off Friday, Saturday & Sunday after the Turkey Trot and all of the Thanksgiving holiday hoopla!  My run was 3 miles on the treadmill at home since it was sooo feakin' cold! BRRRR  I am also thinking about trying out the Nike + GPS app on my iPhone...  I just don't want it to put me over my 2GB a month data limit...anyone had that problem or is it good??  Thanks for any help!

Happy Running Ya'll!

2011 Turkey Trot 5K

Today was officially my 1st race!  I did the 2011 Turkey Trot 5K race and finished with a decent time.  I'm proud of myself!  My pace was about 10/min mile and I felt so great the whole time.  The energy from the crowd was awesome too.  I loved running with so many people and being around such excitement.  Now I see why runners get hooked on the competitiveness of the races.  It's just too fun.

 A big thanks to my sis and her fiance for coming out and supporting and taking all the pictures! :)

Walking to the Starting line!

I finished!  (Bad pic of me lol)

Now I am going to go have a Turkey Day feast with the family :)  Happy Thanksgiving everybody!

Happy Running :)
