I have not blogged in ages, which is sad, because I really do love writing my thoughts and feelings. This blog has been off and on for a while now. I lost weight, had a baby, then tried to lose weight a few more times! Ugh! But for now the focus of the blog has changed. On April 26th, I am running in the Tough Mudder Race. Byron and friends have done it before. They say its fun. I think it is terrifying, and makes me want to cry just thinking about it. Why am I doing it? Because for 5 seconds I thought it would be a good idea and made the terrible mistake of saying it out loud. Byron signed me up. I want to hurl. I have no upper arm strength, no breathe control, and most importantly, an incredible fear of looking stupid. I really want to drop out, but then it hit me. What kind of example am I setting for my sons? We signed Wyatt up for basketball, and he is terrified. Why? He claims he doesn't know how to dribble the ball, or make the baskets, and the biggest fear of all? He doesn't want to look stupid. Hmmm. Wonder where he got THAT idea? And so, I am doing this for him. I want to show Wyatt that we can do hard things that terrify us.
Most of the posts might not be that exciting. They will mostly be my workout for the day and my diet, just to hold me accountable. I ran 2.44 miles, burning 343 calories, then did the following workout.
