At times it feels like I am a total turtle (slow) runner. At times it feels like I will not ever be able to run 5 miles (without stopping. Hey i'm not even up to 4 without stopping yet). And every day i look down at this stomach (baby belly that is stubborn as hell) and wonder if it will ever ever go back to normal. (never mind that i indulged in half a donut this morning - our cupboards have been empty-ish and i've been devouring whatever i could find to eat - not the healthiest thing to do). But this http://enduranceisntonlyphysical.blogspot.com/ chic whose blog i've been following has reached the pivotal moment in her progress where the results from all the above have come to fruition for her. Talk about inspirational! So my three things thursday is about ME - One Year from now.
1. I will weigh 127lbs (or less). Most importantly...it will mean that my abs and stomach muscles have returned. ( I suppose i should start doing those situps daily instead of twice a week lol)
2. I will be able to run 5 miles nonstop. Technically if i continue on my path as of now it will really be more like 10+ miles for my long runs.
3. I in all technicalities may have just ran my first half marathon (i believe it was last weekend Or this coming weekend, either way it doesn't matter.) the point is finishing a half marathon is already in my mind something I can most definitely do. Six months ago it was a joke of laughter and not even reality.
(i want to thank tricia for her hard work and blogging...along with all the other mommy runners blogs i follow. Your insipiration has helped me change who i am and begin to live a healthier lifestyle.)
