Who'd Have Ever Thought...


I actually got a bit emotional when I read the "Welcome to Fitopia"! I love it! I am not exaggerating at all when I say that this is literally changing my life! Having said that...BIG announcement time.

I almost didn't say anything at all, because I thought, "What if I can't do it?" Then I started to think about all the changes we've made so far and how much your support and encouragement has meant in the past month. Sooo...I'm putting it out there.

I am going to begin training and I have every intention of running the 5K at the end of April!

I found a site that says if you follow the steps, they can take you "couch potato to 5k" in two months. I then googled "Can a really overweight person safely run?" and found out that I am good to go!

I'm going on Friday night and buying a pair of running shoes, some sports bras, and something called a compression shirt and starting on Monday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where is the girl that said she'd run if Satan was chasing her or her kids were in danger!?!? I don't know, but I'm starting to like this new chick!

Love, T

Here is the link if you are interested... From "couch Potato to 5K".

    I support you, quite literally. If you need a work out buddy, call me. If you need a training buddy, call me. If you need ice on your knees, Neosporin on you sore skin, motivation to keep going, a shoulder to cry on when it gets rough, a cheer once you are 5 minutes in and contemplating your decision making skills…. Call me. I may not be able to do the “K” with you, but I was a cheerleader once! Heck I think I still have the skirt….
