Hey guys!! I just wanted to say a quick thank you. I don't think I would have stuck to this month nearly as much as I did if I didn't have all of your support. All of the comments are amazing, and I feel like I'm really getting to know some of you! It's amazing to meet you :) Thanks to you all, I completely smashed my goal of running 25 miles. I hit 39.5 miles PLUS I cross trained a lot which is great!! I'm so happy! I hope I can inspire you as much as you do to me. Thanks so much for all you do! Here's to February! Let's make it great!

FRIDAY FIVE

Hey guys! TGIF!!!

Since it’s Friday and the weekend is just at fingertip reach - lets do something fun!

Share five things about yourself. Can be funny, personal, fitness-related, Can’t wait to see what you post! Tag Me and smileygirl13000 in your post!

A day late, but I finally have a day off work! :)

1. I love cooking and baking. If it's not from scratch, I feel like I'm cheating.

2. I daydream, A LOT. If I'm not focused on something, I usually have some story line going on in my head of things that will never happen. Yet, I don't remember any dreams after sleeping at night.

3. I despise being cold and if it weren't for my family, I'd really love to move closer to the equator.

4. I'm really bad at math - as in I still sometimes do simple addition, counting on my fingers.

5. I'm crazy stubborn. Don't tell me you think I can't do something because if I believe I can, I will anyway just because.

So I'm thinking about starting a 10k training program on Tuesday... Since my injury I have run 5 miles, but that's about the highest I've gone. I'm just kinda excited I guess. I don't know how I'm going to have time to get all the runs in, but I think it could be possible. Like they say, never stop pushing yourself. Here's my push to me :)

That run was so powerful, It wasn’t my fastest or longest but I wanted to stop after a mile. I just felt like I didn’t have any steam at all but I pushed through and finished strong. Just when I thought I gave all I had there was more I’m so proud of what my body can do I feel so strong and it feels amazing. So thats 91/80 miles for January and 91/1,000 on the year.

Healthy living blog. Free home workout videos. Fitness, exercise, recipes, health/wellness information. Body weight exercise, little or no equipment.

I recommend this blog a lot - but this particular workout has got to be my favorite one of all she's posted. I keep going back to it whenever there's nothing new or the new stuff doesn't sound particularly appealing that day.

It's been a busy week and I'm really getting worn out from all these 12 hour days and not enough sleep. But, I made a promise to myself that I wouldn't skip more than two workouts per week this year, three if I have absolutely no choice and I've stuck with that so far! My boss is sure trying to negate that, though, assigning me meetings to cover on my usual day off tomorrow like tomorrow.
