PRNCSSGRL's Apr 2010 CalorieKing Blog

Friday, April 30th 2010

It's that time of the week again folks. The time where I review the last seven days in preparation for OWiS #18. I do this to help me remember this journey isn't about numbers but about becoming a healthier me. It's also about taking control of my life and moving closer to what I was born to be; an athlete.

Change / Run / No Gym declaration update

Monday, April 26th 2010

What I really wanted to do was title this post “Let’s get to know Tara” because what I’m about to write is probably going to be mundane and too much information (but not in a gross kind of way). If you’d like to bypass the first portion of this post and get to Sunday’s run please do so now.

Okay, if you’re still here let’s get this out-of-the-way. I don’t like change. I hear lots of people say “oh me neither” but let me be very clear: I ...
