My Favorite Quote- "When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn." -Harriet Beecher Stowe

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.

Total Distance

0.00

This week is my first 10 miler in Provo. I am very excited and super nervous. This week is my 20% mileage cut back week so I will be doing some easy running and a bunch of Yoga- my miracle "cure all" and injury prevention. (plus a little zen for the mama of a bunch of roudy chillins) You know I think I love running because none of my babies can catch me. I LOVE the "alone" time with me and the cosmic universe ;)

Welcome to the blog! 6 kids, wow! I don't live in Payson, but I run through it at least a couple times a week. I'll be at the 10 miler too so be sure to say hi if you see me in my St. G Running Center singlet.

I will say hi for sure! I am the "runner" who looks like I might need a little O2.
