Morning friends ... I have a secret....
But first lets do this weigh-in.
I'm little bummed I fricken stayed the same!! 173.8
I have worked so hard this week to stay on track with my food like super on track and I walked... a lot. The only thing I think they may have derailed me is TOM stated yesterday, but geez man can't a girl get a break.

Soon to my secret... this is something I've been thinking about for a while and I was pretty sure i was going to do it, then on Sunday I finally made the decision, and this was the confirmation ....my long "walk".

| hell ya a 14 min pace it's far from where I was but I will get there again just gonna take some time. |
I'm going to do another Half Marathon.... In a MONTH!!
Can I do it, probably... Should I do it, ehh. ... Am I crazy, YES.
I was so sad that I wasn't able to do the Surf City Half because of my surgery, and that totally messed up the beach city challenge medal I was after (you have to do the 3 races consecutively). And being into instant gratification i don't want to wait another whole year!!
So I decided to just do it. I know I won't be able to run any most of it but I wanted to see where my "walking" pace was because you need to keep at least a 16 minute mile before I committed. Also to help keep me from hurting myself and running more than I should I asked my mom to do it with me.
She is NOT a runner at all but that woman can walk, and walk fast also she has started her own fitness journey a few months ago and already has lost 28 pounds.... I am so PROUD of her!! When I asked, she was totally on board and TaTa decided she would join us, but she will run with my girls Barb and Care. I am so excited to do this with ALL my girls, but it will be especially awesome to do this with my mom....
When I first started running my mom was always behind me 110% even when I didn't believe I would ever run a mile much less a Half Marathon or 2 and when people thought I was crazy to even try. She always believed in me!

| Me and Mom |
Wow! Congrats on the decision to do a half:) And with your mom? Awesome!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Leigh :) I'm so excited. I know it won't be anywhere near the time I was before but to do it with my mom awesome!!
DeleteWow you are a crazy fast walker! Way to go! Sorry about the 0 on the scale but it's better than a gain!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on deciding to do the Half!
Your right about the gain, just keep looking on the bright side.
DeleteGood for the both of you! I'm sure you'll have a great time encouraging one another through the race :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Nikki
DeleteSo awesome! That is such a great goal!! Love your blog name by the way:)
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteCongratulations on the race! I don't know about other people, but sometimes I don't lose any weight for two weeks and then I will lose 2 pounds over night! And water weight from the TOM is the absolute worst. Stay strong!
