goals, goals, goals

well, i officially signed up for the columbus half marathon. october 19th.

my goals are: 

1. getting to the starting line

2. enjoying the race

3. finishing the same day

i did run a 5K a couple weeks ago... it was so fun. and i'm running another one this friday evening! i am really enjoying running, and that's the first time i've run long enough/consistant enough to be able to say that. 

other exercise goals:

1. yoga on a regular basis

2. riding my road bike (padded shorts anyone??)

3. 50 crunches a day/10 push-ups a day

food goals:

1. no more soda

2. no more desserts (except jenni's ice cream for the rest of summer:)

3. no more alcohol (with few exceptions, of course:)

4. more fruits, veggies & protein!

5. only 1 coffee drink a day

6. no more processed foods

(that looks like too many "no's". i don't really like that, but not really sure how to be specific without them...)

tam - you coming up here for the race??

Send help

Roll has somehow turned to pudge, still annoying, but not as protruding...

children are evil

Did I say that I have a flat stomach???

Today I am in my bikini, and Kennedy comes by and pulls the bottoms up a bit.

Our conversation:
what are you doing?
I think it looks better this way.
why, it seems too high now
well, it covers that roll of fat that you have right there.


nice.

This made me laugh

"Pear-shaped" is British slang for
something gone wrong with ones plans

Yeah, I'll say something has gone wrong here...

still a pear

Still here, still a pear.
No exercise happening here, unless you count packing and loading 5000 boxes as exercise. And for some reason I DON'T!!
Some people say cleaning your house is exercise, and I don't really believe that either. For me exercise has to be a time set apart from all other activities, where I can get super sweaty and actually feel like I am accomplishing something. Mopping, great to get your floor clean, but exercise?? not so much.
Again, just this one pears opinion.

Pear Schmare

Nothing new on the pear front. This pear is not really paring down. More like maintaining pear weight and shape. BUT this pear has been happy with shape lately, as it is getting FIRMER. A firm pear is, after all, what we are all looking for, right?

Why I like being a pear

I have a flat stomach





well, I guess thats it
