Race day! Official time...

Sunday, May 23rd 2010

I slept as long as possible but I am up before the rest of the world on this Sunday. Its race day. I’m not sure why I can’t equate what I did last Sunday (a half marathon walk) to what I’m about to do in a few hours but it doesn’t feel the same.

Today I run.

I run with a new body.

I run with a new mind.

I run with a new heart.

I run with new muscles.

I run with a new life.

Start Strong.

Finish Strong.

Believe.

Food as part of the solution, not the problem / Pre-OWiS week in Review

Friday, May 21st 2010

Dang it!

Its Friday already.

Seriously, did someone come here and steal my week cause I’m not sure what happen to it. Seems I woke Monday and then BAM its Friday. I tried to look for a pause button on this crazy ass week but I guess I accidentally put it in the last bag of clothes I donated to the Goodwill.

Before I get to the week in review, I wanted to share a small (yet victorious) epiphany I had today while shopping for my weekly lunches at Trader Joe’s. I’m pretty sure Set...

Tipping point / exciting news

Thursday, May 20th 2010

After reading Brandon’s (http://solongfatass.com/), and Mary’s (http://amerrylife.com/) post about what their tipping points were for starting this journey I thought I would examine what my tipping point was as well. I’m often asked what was the deciding factor but in hind site I don’t think it was one particular event but a bunch of little ones that eventually turned into the big unmistakable elephant smack dab in the middle of my life.

* My Depression – while I wasn’t fully aware o...

T-Minus6 days!

Tuesday, May 18th 2010

Short post today. Then off to catch up on blogs. Six days left until race day!

Six days left. I’m trying not to think about it. Impossible. I’m thinking about it all the time right now. Is this normal? I feel like I should be making some major plans but right now I’m just worried I won’t wake up in time to drive to Seattle that morning.

Okay that’s not true I am making some major plans. I need to adjust my work out schedule for the rest of the...
