A New Kind of Motivation



This "weight loss journey" is taking a new turn. Running...is starting to become a love of mine. I look forward to it, need it, crave it. I am able to push myself farther and things that were sooo hard, are becoming easier for me and I can feel myself getting stronger and changing. So when I heard about the 5K for the Shawna Kilbert Foundation I was so quick to sign up.

* She was an amazing mom and person. Her life inspires me.
* Its at Harlan Ranch - Fantastic scenery for me :)
* I just ran 2 miles a few nights ago...so I know I can do this.

What used to get me going was small goals or a jean size, which I am still working towards. But for the first time...I want to be able to run the whole thing. To be able to complete it! I am super excited and motivated to train.

So here is to running my butt of for the next month! Can't wait for the next weigh in!!!
