I am a mom of 2 girls and married for 5 years to my sweet husband. Growing up, I was always involved in sports. I was in great shape and never had weight issues. When I became pregnant with my first is when the weight issues started. And for every year since I couldn't figure out how to lose the weight. I finally have motivation and I'm finally doing what I've set out to do. I am now in training for a marathon which was something far from my comfort zone. I was NOT a runner. EVER. But through my journey, I am now. And I love it! Thank you for reading my story and please if you have any questions or need anything please feel free to email me! I hope to motive and inspire all who read my blog.

Tracking my workouts

I figured I need a spot to keep track of what I do for my workouts. What better than to keep track on my blog! Duh me! haha


So I mentioned yesterday about my running workout I'm doing. 3 days a week. Day 1 a normal running day, day 2 a slower but longer run and day 3 shorter but faster. 


Monday 11/7 - Ran 2.5 miles (no breaks) in 29 minutes. 
Tuesday 11/8 - Weights with Turbo Jam. 8lbs when doing lower body and 5lbs for upper body. 


I also bought one of these...


Mine's blue though

It's called a foam roller. And it's used to massage your muscles. I used it back in high school when I was working out with my coach to increase my vertical. They had them at the gym and we would use them before working out. Awww...it felt so good! There are a bunch of videos on youtube on how to use this. It's simple and it really does feel like a great deep tissue massage. And yes, soreness will follow so drink lots of water! 

I am signing up for another 5k run December 17th. Does anyone want to join me?! It's $20 until the first of December and then $25 after that. It's at Victory Lanes...ride behind Water World/Wet N' Wild. Jingle Bell Run! Seriously let me know if anyone wants to join me!
