Has it really been so long?


Where have I been? Well I have been busy fulfilling a long time dream.....to run a 5K (that's 3.1 miles). Yes, as you can see from the pic, I DID IT! Yippee! I started training in January and ran the race in May. Along the way, I lost 12 pounds too! If you are interested in trying this, check out the Couch Potato to 5K Plan I followed to get me started (there is an iPhone app also). I'll be back tomorrow with a card for you.

Congratulations, Michelle! I'm so proud of you for doing this! I'm still 'on the couch', but my DD runs 5k's, 10k's, and half-marathons. She's talking of a full marathon, and even an Iron Man. I think she's a bit crazy! In October she's hiking the Grand Canyon - yikes! Anyway, keep up the good work - you look wonderful! I'm thinking you need a new profile pic with your hair longer now! Hugs and blessings...
