Crunch time! Kick it up this week and finish it off with a bang!
Well, I did it! I ran 13.1 miles! I have a shirt, a medal, and really sore calves to prove it. The race was great. The first 10 miles went great, and then I started to get tired. Really tired. My sister Emily took off on me with 5 miles to go. I know she could have taken off earlier than that but I wouldn't let her leave me with no one to talk to. (can you believe that I'm a talker?) She has been training while pushing a jogging stroller so she's really super-awesome when on her own. She did fantastic and finished about 4 minutes before me. So while I was trudging through my last few miles (kinda slowing down) she was speeding up to finish it off well. GREAT JOB EM!!
I was really happy to see that finish line. I finished the race in 1:51 minutes. That averages 8 and 1/2 minute miles. Not too bad for my first run I think. I won't complain. I'm glad I did it. I never would have thought even 6 months ago that I would be typing this email much less doing that race. It is amazing what one (YOU!) can accomplish when you put your mind to it! My good friend Heather asked me what was next on my list of things to accomplish, and I told her my next goal was to eat an entire pan of brownies in one sitting and not puke. That is just a joke! But, I am glad to have a break from training. (I say that and starting next week I am going to be teaching aerobics - YEAH!- at the church two days a week, and then run at least 3 days, and lastly I am trying to get 2 days of swimming in there also.) But, it feels good to take a break....hah!
I hope you are hitting it hard. I know calories like to hit hard, so we, Hot Mommas, just have to have a stronger punch! Kick boxing anyone?!
Well, it is Halloween week and here's to enjoying Halloween Hot Momma style!!
Don't let those SPOOKY love handles win!
Get that BOOty in shape!
EEK! Tone those arms!

Don't let cellulite HAUNT your figure!

Have a great last week and

stick the ending,
bonnie
Success!

That is way cute. You are so creative. Good job on the run. I just cant imagine me doing that and enjoying it. I guess I just havent reached that point yet. I am planing on attending the aerobics classes if it doesnt kill me. Good job. You are and your sister are awesome for doing that in such a great time. Wish i could do that someday.
