March 1st

Sunday- Oh how I love Sunday, it is when a new week starts over, and for me it feels like the new year. A time to start over and forget all of the bad things that I did to my body the week before. So Tomorrow...I will start the day out with a great workout, a 1 hour swim and a 2 hour bike ride. I soooo hope that the weather is great so that I might be able to get the bike in outside. I am GOING off sugar. I have been a very bad girl lately and I have found that I can not go a day with out a treat so I am going off sugar for the month of March. Wish me luck, I totally am a sugar aholic, my body craves it.

SICK and SICK again

It has been a long 2 weeks of having this cold that is killing me. I also had a bacterial infection that I could not kick. So I decided to take time off and try to heel. Well I think that I am finally there. The only down fall is that I feel like I am two weeks behind in my training...but I need to get that thought out of my mind, because what would training be like if I was training with a sick and unhealthy body. I think that it is so important to take the rest periods in your training, and my body always seems to let me know when to STOP. I usually don't get sick very often, but I think the combination of local virology and stress from my company going through layoffs is what did me in. So time to put the body bugg back on (not that i should have taken it off because i was sick, but I like to know more what I am burning during workouts). Time to go to the store and get "training food" whole grains & lean meats time to clean out the gym bag and re stock it. Time to look at the calender and see what I can fit in. I have 10 weeks to go until my first race of the new season. Wish me luck and pray for me not to get sick.

OpeNed tHis BLog Up

I decided to open this blog up. Why, well i feel that there are so many of us who are out there who struggle with working out and staying healthy. This is my blog that I use to post all of my frustrations and all of my success's with working out, dieting, and striving to stay healthy. This will be a honest blog and if you comment please keep it that way. i will try to motivate at most times, but guess what I too get in a rut and hate to stay on track. enjoy the blog and join me in my training. I am currently training for Iron Girl and started this week. I hope to have a personal beast time for this Race. Wish me luck in my training...so far so good (except for my dang cold)

Doing Good.

I am now in day 3 of my training for Iron Girl. I have told myself that I will reward myself with a new camra lens if i reach 120 and train for 6 days in a row. This is hard for me when I am just starting out, and when it is Febuary (I have such a hard time waking up in the winter).
