A New Journey

I hope all the mommas out there had wonderful and blessed Mother's Day!

My husband and I went to Houston to see family and we had a really great time.  It was short, but sweet :)

My mother-in-law and cousin/sister-in-law (that's a story for another day) have been running together and it made me feel really lazy.  I can't tell you how many times I have set out to become a runner and have failed.  I was never athletic or anything in school so it just isn't in me to be an avid exerciser.  Although I did run track for one season in middle school...but to be honest, it was just for the duffel bag and my friend and I skipped and went to the park.  So I wouldn't call my self a track star by any means.

My mother-in-law and sis-in-law were talking about running a 5k and I thought if they can do it, I can do it! And why the heck not?! So I chimed in and told them I was up for the challenge.

So the goal is to run one in September some time here in Dallas probably.

I can just imagine the way I will feel if I accomplish this goal of mine!

A friend of mine has even offered to help me train and we will be meeting at 6:00 am three days a week to train.  YIKES!

The hubbs and I are going to Los Angeles in July so this is just more motivation for me to get in shape since there are so many skinny people there!

So if I share any recipes on here in the next few weeks, they will be salads and healthier stuff.  So for now, no more cheese filled casseroles...sad, sad day!

I found this quote on Pinterest and really think it applies to what I am setting myself out to do and I think thinking of it as a journey makes it a little more excited...because to be honest, I am not thrilled about this is in the least, but I am gonna do it!

So wish me luck and don't hesitate to ask me how I am doing...It will help me to keep going!

Have a great Monday!
