I have recently lost a lot of weight and running is very new to me (I started running about 2 years ago). I have 6 fantastic kids, 3 girls and 3 boys and a wonderful husband.

My new weight goal is to have lost 100 pounds. I am quite sure I can get to about 93, but I am not sure about the 100. The weight tracker is tracking my total weight loss.

Beautiful short run today. Wasn't too hot at all. We left at 7:30, so Kim got to sleep in a bit. I got up and did an hour of yoga this morning. It was a great mellow class by Necia on YogaToday.com. I just love that site.

Now, as for my goals- I broke #1. I did do a fair bit of walking, so maybe I really didn't break them too badly. Oh well, life to too short to beat myself up and I am feeling pretty good.

NO SORENESS TODAY! ( I am such a KimLee wanna-be) I swam for about 6 hours yesterday afternoon with my kids and brother, Dans family. We had a GREAT time!!

Have a GREAT weekend everyone!!!

-.4 lbs from last Sat
