The next 4 weeks is massive. 7lbs and a 10K.

Hey there blog followers. August 19 was my last post! I'm sure you are all interested in knowing how I am doing.

So August 19 my weigh in was 149 and I am currently 148.  In the past month and a bit, I also completed my first race. Kerry, Steph, Jocelyn, Sophia, Marie and I all did the race on September 23! It was so much fun and  an amazing experience. It was a great run for the most part until I under estimated the the hill at the end and started to increase my pace too soon. I finished at 29:53 which was under my goal of 30 min. I came in 11 out of 51 in my age category and 69th overall. I was pretty impressed with that.

Soooo...148 lbs....Problem being.... I need to be about 143 or so to fit comfortably into a dress I want to wear for October 20 (Amanda and Shauns wedding). I wore it to Jon and Dana's wedding and was 145 so that works too but I would like to be a bit smaller than that. So the next two weeks I am on a crack down. I did groceries today (all healthy) and started Jillian Michaels despite being sick which includes extreme diziness. Ugh.

So why do I say 4 weeks? Well Kerry decided it was a fabulous idea to run a 10K Nov 3 at 2 am. Yep. 2 am. Oh and we have to wear gowns and head lamps. Sounds fun. BUT a 10 K in 4 weeks??!!! Possible? I don't know.... I shall check in with my coach Mike Brown ; )

Bought some winter running gear today so I am all prepped for training! HERE WE GO! I will keep you all updated!
