02/25/2012

It has been a couple of months since I posted. I really have been keeping up an exercise routine. I recently switched things up and have started working out for 20 minutes in the morning and 20 -60 minutes in the evening. I usually run / walk for the 20 minutes in the morning and do Tae Bo or run again in the evening. It has worked amazing and I finally have shed a few of those stubborn pounds. I have also been back to my spinach. Honestly I don't know that it is one of my favorite foods, but I honestly can feel a difference when I am eating it. It makes me feel so much better and my runs are so much better. So the sign up for the TOU Half opens next Thursday. I really think I will do it this year but I guess we will see how fast it fills up and if I make up my mind in time :).

Introduction

I think for most people that will be reading this know my story, but for those of you that don't. Here it is. About a year ago I started running with a friend. I have never been a runner and never wanted to be a runner, but after having my third baby and nearing her first birthday I knew I had to do something or I would start packing on the pounds. When I heard a friend was running I decided I would try it. Another friend had once told me that it seemed like after she worked up to 4 miles she started to see a change in her body. After I ran that first time I decided I wanted to try and run 4 miles with out stopping. I was surprised when I was able to work my self up to 4 miles shortly after starting. Once I was able to run 4, I decide I would ask another friend if she wanted to go running. We start running together and before long with out knowing it I was training for the Top Of Utah Half Marathon. I ran the TOU Half last August and I am hooked. I am determined I have to run a marathon once in my life so I am shooting for the TOU Marathon this September. I started this blog because I want to be able to look back and see what runs I did and how I felt!
