Ran Today

So I have been trying to get on track and prepare for this half marathon I am running in 8 weeks. Not doing as good as I know I can. I did however run at the gym today for a hour and did 3.5 miles. At this rate it will take me almost 4 hours to get done. Not good at all. I need to get on track or I will fail and I do not fail!!!
I set my alarm every morning for 5am and needless to say I have only gotten my butt out of bed a handful of times and only when Jon pushes me and says over and over 9 weeks babe, no excuses-9 weeks babe , no excuses!! I know I can do this I have before, I just need to refocus! The are NO EXCUSES, I have to get this done. I have family and friends coming to cheer us on and I can not let them or myself down. Austin, Jon, Kiera, Mom, Becca and Heather will be there and seeing how proud they were of me last year makes me want to push that much harder. The weight thing is not going very well but I have only myself to blame for that.I am thinking of trying this new weight loss thing with my sister. It sounds like it works. I will keep you posted!

Happy New Year!!


Many things both good and bad came out of 2008. We are glad to have a new year upon us.

2009 will bring our families together in many ways, Jon and I will be married, We will have all our kids under one roof, All the battles we are fighting will come to a happy ending, Teresa and Chad will add a little boy to their family, I will be running another half marathon and prepare myself to look my best when walking down the isle. My saying for the new year " NO EXCUSES". We will do anything and everything in our power to make 2009 the best year yet. I know there will be detours along the way, But Jon and I will get through them together. There will be no excuse to not push through. I plan on spending more time with family and friends this year as well. My nieces and nephew are my world and I want them to know thier Auntie Tray loves them forever and always!!!
