Well today I tried to kill myself. I went out at 10:45 am in the Houston heat and attempted to run 6 miles. Needless to say I only made it through 2.75 miles. I thought I was gonna die. I am going to try to fit a run in again tonight.

124 days left

There are actually 123 days left but I am reporting on my run from yesterday. I completed the three miles as planned....unfortunately my run was on a treadmill. I am one day behind because I was getting ready for my baby to come home finally.

Daniel made it safe and sound from North Carolina this morning. The kids and I have missed him terribly this year. Thank goodness we were able to see him at least once a month, but he is home for good now. We all are happy to have him home.

And the icing on the cake for today was the Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup. Woo Hoo! Although I am not the best hockey fan in the world (football is the game I love), it was great to see Chicago bring the Cup home.

126 Days Left

Well Blogger was down yesterday so I couldn't report on my run. Yesterday I ran 6 miles. I can't run it all the way through. I ran 3 miles and then walked and then ran a mile and walked and so on till I made it to 6. It was awfully muggy as it had just rained. Today I am off and I am enjoying it. Back to the grind tomorrow.

I took the dog I found to the vet today and he had a microchip. Turns out he lives diagonally across the street from me. Lulu is sad that her companion is gone. She needs a buddy. Maybe sometime in the future she will have one.

My First Post - 128 days left

Hello everyone. I finally have my run blog up and running. There are 128 days left till marathon day which is on 10/10/10! How awesome is that. First off I would like to thank my sister Gina and her friend Jennifer for their generous donation of $100.00 to PAWS. I appreciate their support in this adventure. I have been trying to keep up with the training program on Nike via my ipod, but I am not completely fit enough to do so. Todays goal was to run 3 miles. That was an easy one. My dog Lulu is my running partner. She can run 3-4 miles depending on the temperature. Currently I am having to drive her home and go back to the park to finish my runs that are longer than she can handle. It is a pain but Lulu loves to go with me. She is a PAWS mascot. :) My guy Daniel will be here this week permanently and hopefully he will assist me with Lulu so that I don't have to leave the park. A dog followed my son home yesterday. The funny thing is its coloration is exactly the same as Lulu's. He went running with us today. Tomorrow is the long distance day so I will not be taking the dogs with me.

I have lost one size since I started running. I am ready to lose another size. I believe I will be there soon because I am determined to follow the schedule and really get into gear. I know I need to eat a little healthier as well, but I am not ready to do that just yet. I really hate salads. I will post some pictures very soon. I will have Daniel take some after he gets here. Until tomorrow my friends...
