Mini Marathon...

Brian and I have been talking about working out and trying to get in shape and that’s about all it’s been...talk. We went to the store for an elliptical and came home with a poker table. We set our alarm to get up and run and we hit snooze. I need motivation. One would think the weight I’ve gained since my wedding would be motivation enough but I still find myself doing other things besides working out. I need a workout buddy. I need someone there motivating me to workout and to keep going while I am working out.

I’ve decided things need to change. Yesterday I committed myself to running the mini marathon in April! Myself along with about 10 people from my company are planning to train together and keep each other motivated. My goal is to run the first 5 miles and then do a walk/run the rest of the way and to finish in less than 3hrs. This is definitely going to be a challenge, considering I can barely run one mile without feeling like I’m going to fall over!

If I lived there, I'd be your work out buddy. Good luck on the Mini....you can do it!
