Exciting Stuff!!

I've decided to run the Adelaide Half Marathon when I go home in a few weeks time....as always entering a race is exciting, but this one a little more so for me...It's in my home town!!! I haven't been home for a few years so that also makes it extra wonderful :-) It's most likely going to be the last half marathon for me before I move up to longer distances...fingers crossed it goes a little better than the last one did...oh and I'm going to ask for dry weather too :-)!! LOL....
A big shout out to my Mum...she's paying the entry fee for me...!! XOXOXO

Middle of the 3rd Week....

It's Thursday of the 3rd week, and all I can say is man alive my body is making it hard for me, it really doesn't want to let go of the last few pounds!!! Granted results prob would have been better had I skipped out on the alcohol last weekend, but..thats the way it goes!!
I'm having wonderful results with the couple of friends I'm helping out at the gym too..so to them I say well done and keep it up xoxo
Run day today 10kms, so burn baby burn I say :-)

2nd Week In...

Well today marks the beginning of the second week of whats going to be an interesting workout month....4 weeks, 7 days a week, Weights, Cardio and Plyometrics...coupled with an inspiring Clean Eating Regime...yes there is a hint of sarcasm in those last few words...but with 9lbs I still want to lose...there are just some things you have to do. The words that came to me during the last half marathon when I was wiping away some sort stinking mixture of breakfast and gels was SUCK IT UP PRINCESS!!!! I do have to admit...my breakfast yesterday (Mother's Day)...was as far from, my normal breakfast as it gets. I have to admit it was SO good,however I was happy to be back to my eggs whites/oatmeal/blueberries this morning.
BRING IT ON.........

Thought of the Week....

"Don't fear fear....put it to work"

Wow what a Run....

Rain,Rain go away!! Pretty much the thought of the day.
BMO Vancouver Half Marathon today..and yes it started raining as soon as we were lining up to head off...GO FIGURE!!!
Didn't have the best day....still getting over whatever it was that made me sick..so preceded to throw up twice..thank goodness for aid stations..the Gatorade made the gross taste go away..so the Mantra for the rest of the race was "One foot in front of the other"!!! Thanks Dean I'm using it!! And it seemed to work.
PB for me...wonder what is next on the list!
