10k Hotcake Hussle!

Okay this is a late post about my 10K run on sat the 14th of January but I wanted to post about it.!


This go around Lance ran a 5k and I did the 10K which I was ahead of him on that run when he caught up to me just before the 5k goes to the finish line and 10k makes their second loop. and thats when I thought to myself " Brit why didn't you just sign up for the 5k! you'd be done by now!" and I headed towards the loop. after mile 5 my nose was just not letting me breathe so I did what I had to...I blew my nose into my sweater. gross i know but I had to breathe! lol and then I finished the race in 1:19 minutes 4 minutes over the time I wanted to finish but I'm proud of my 1:19. It felt amazing to be in a race again and I love that I didn't feel like death or wanted to die! lol  I am excited for my Marathon in April! Still have more training to go of course but still super excited for it!! :) I'm very happy and excited that I started working out and eating better last September I'm Grateful for WLB for the encouragement I got there and for the support of my sweet hubby and Family and friends :) 

It feels good to feel healthy :)

The First Day of 2012

Happy New Year! I still can't believe 2011 is over and gone....It really is insain how fast time is flying! I have been very much MIA from blogging since Thanksgiving sooo here is a quick update...
I started working for Wells Fargo part time Nov. 28th I still work at DollarTree part time too. I just applied to 3 different locations for Fulltime assistant Store Manager and I'm really hoping I get it! that means more money and no Wells Fargo! woot woot! :) happy day! however because of my schedule I let myself get lazy and get less exercise in ! not good! I have a 10k Hotcake run on the 14th of January where Lance is running a 5k in. and My marathon is April 15th! goodness that is in 3 months and 14 days! :) I have a long way to go still! I don't like new years resolutions I like Goals for the year..some might say they are the same thing but lets face it new years resolutions are over rated and most of the time not attainable.... my goal isn't to lose x amount of pounds..my goal is to finish my Marathon in 6 hours not a minute more. I also want to do a run about every 3 months and I'm debating doing nothing less than a 10k this year... a goal Lance and I have always made is of course get Pregnant!! well the last 2 years we have got that! however This years goal is not get pregnant but to actually HAVE a baby...or at least have a healthy pregnancy. I would very much like a baby in 2012. VERY MUCH.

I would like to be in management at Dollar Tree this year which is looking very good!. I want to just continue what I've been doing since October. working out, eating healthier, and just feeling better about myself and life.

Today I ran 4 miles in 55:09 it was a great kick in the butt for me.  I finished WLB in Nov. at 191then got down to 187.8 and then the holiday's came and working 60 plus hours a week between 2 jobs and me being lazy and thinking just this one time i won't go to the AAC and i wasn't exercising like i needed to be and BAM I weighed in today at 194.2 such a bummer but i'm not gonna dwell on it what did I do? I went running. ps a BondiBand is AMAZING!! love it! well then Happy New Years to you all.
