I got a flyer/invitation in the maill to participate in a half marathon or marathon for a luekemia cure. At first I was like no I won't do that. But then I started to look at it and I thought, it acutally is a good idea to run for a cause. I hate running! I am learning to love it as my husband is a great cross country runner and loves it. Since I had Micah, I have been trying to hit the gym as much as possible to get rid of this extra belly. I am determined to fit in my pre-prego jeans! I am not going to buy jeans that fit me because I don't want to settle into those jeans. It's not that I am not confident, I just want to be in the best shape that I can be in. I don't want to settle for living a mediocre life and feeling tired and unhealthy. So this half marathon would be a goal I could look to. It is always easier having a goal to look to when I am trying to loose a couple of pounds. I got all excited for this half marathon and signed up and then realized its on a date that I am going to be out of town for a wedding! Big bummer!!! But now I have a found a new motivation for hitting the gym. I know that my body is capable of so much (having a baby proved that!). I just have to put my mind to it. I have to convince myself that I can do a half marathon, and one day a marathon! But for now I need to train to be in the best shape possible, for my own health, to honor my husband and because my body is God's temple. My body is God's dwelling place...why wouldn't I take of something so important.
:) time to go to the gym and zumba it up!
