Look at those miles!

After the prior week's low, low mileage week things changed in a great way. This past week I hit my highest mileage in one week (partly due to my longest run so far!) - 40.44 miles!

40.44 miles in 7 days.

I love seeing that. I love hitting new milestones for myself. Doing something I never did before. It's inspiring.

Here's some more inspiration:

Never Had I Ever…

One thing most people probably don’t expect to hear me say is “Never had I ever dieted before last year”. But it’s true, I hadn’t.

Sure maybe a few times I decided I should “eat healthier” or “watch what I eat”, but never had I counted calories, tried Atkins/South Beach/Weight Watchers/etc., started up a program or even dropped a pound. Most people would probably say I was just lazy (probably true). But in all honesty, I was scared. I didn’t think I could succeed. I had no confidence in myself to be able to do it. I owe it all to one friend who truly believed I could do it. She knew I could, even when I didn’t. She changed my life by being my fitspiration (fit inspiration).

So I’m here to say, whether you want to lose weight, start running, playing a new sport or just have a healthier lifestyle: YOU CAN DO IT. If I can do it, I KNOW you can too. Start small and stay committed, the rest will come.
