I got into fitness a little over 13 years ago, at first I just wanted to lose 20-25 lbs so I began strength training & then quickly followed it with running. Shortly after, I started running & since then I've ran hundreds of 5k's, 10k's, 15k's, 13.1 and 26.2 mile races and still maintain my strength training. My hope is to help others discover a love for fitness, finding a lifetime commitment to a healthy lifestyle they can grow with.

A Run in the Rain
I almost didn't go for a run this morning, the 45 degrees and rain kind of had me reluctant along with my bladder was acting funny. I sucked it up and went though, and ran a loop at one of our nature reserves area totaling 1.17 miles in 13 minutes and 11 seconds. It is definitely slower than before pregnancy but at least I got it in, and hopefully I can get another run in either Thursday or Friday. I am definitely feeling the strain in my hips and joint, even my feet acted a little irritated today but those things I can sort of handle better than the need to pee. If I can keep up 3 miles a week, I am fine with that, I won't promise anything more than that much as I have definitely underestimated the difficulty that comes with being pregnant and trying to stay active. I might have to buy one of those maternity girdle support band thingies.
