*REGISTERED 2 Races!Disney’s 5K - Sept 9TH & Long Beach Shoreline 1/2 marathon Oct 11th* EURO Trance
I am so EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Blaithin, Emily, WILDCats, all my friends at Buddyslim…………..I am going to do my first race!!!!! In September Disney has a 5K and 1/2 marathon. Too bad there is no 10K. But I’m doing it!!! I registered! $40 is going to be worth it!!! I saw the race before but never thought I could do it. But I will!! Disney is 5 minutes from my house. I can’t wait to do it! YIPPEE!
The second is the Long Beach marathon, 1/2 marathon, 5K and marathon walk. Right now I don’t know if I want to do the 5K or the 1/2 marathon.
For now, I’m going to focus on the 5K’s. I am doing 5K twice a week on the treadmill. Blaithin and Emily,my girls, points out to me that I have to start taking my run back outside. I’ve been slacking with the outside run because I have Rod mom’s car. BUT I will try Memorial Day morning.
Then it’s a matter of building stamina and becoming more and more consistent with my outside running. Hopefully I can do the 1/2 marathon in October. That’s almost 4 months of prep time.
I’m so excited!! I just can’t hide it! I am jumping in and out of my seat! I just can’t wait to start training!!!
I downloaded some great heart thumping music - mainly Euro trance remixes. I can’t wait to put on my IPOD and just run tomorrow morning!!!! Today no exercise - just time with my honey. Food wise, no counting or worrying about food these three days. I’m happy with that decision.
Excited excited excited!!!!!!!!!!! Three months ago I just started my walk/jog! Now I’m doing 6 miles runs, 5 miles and 5K’s. 1/2 marathon here I come!
YEA!!! My FIL does the Disney races and he says they are a ton of fun!
Hiya hon, I saw the race last year, but I was never interested. Is your FIL doing it this year again?
How exciting. Is Mickey going to running too? That will be cute!
I’n exited for you!!! Great job, have fun, don’t forget to wear your mouse ears when you run!!!
Kudos kid, I did my first 5K around the same weight I am now four years ago when I first realized I had gained weight and it was to prove to myself I wasnt getting fat. Well that was a lie I told myself but I kicked butt anyway if I must say so myself (even though I walked a good 1K of it).
If I wasn’t a broken rag doll I would run one this year. Instead I will try to walk a few this summer. Walking is my thang. Good luck you will have so much fun. Go for the 1/2 marathon in October, dont sike yourself out, you can do it girl!
I am so proud of you. You keep pushing yourself to new levels of challenges that really inspire others. Keep it up fellow Diva!
thats great!!!!!!!
He actually does them in Orlando but he most likely is…
That’s awesome - well done for getting registered! I look forward to hearing how the training & races go and to the pics!! You can so do this!!!
Oh my!!! *mouth hangs open* So excited for you!!
congrats!!!!
Sounds like a good plan, Nancy. I am registered in 1 5K on October 4, and I am both excited and scared. It’s not like anyone expects performance from me, but I want to at least run the distance! Have fun training!
That sounds great Nancy! Glad you are so pumped & excited! You will do great!
(((hugs))) Will TTYL!!!!!
I’m so excited for you!
Finishing in this competition is really going to boost your enthusiasm and self esteem! 
You can do anything you put your mind to… I wouldn’t be surprised to see you in some of those women’s bodybuilding competitions one day, if you decided you wanted to do that. 
(Rod probably would HATE that! LMAO)
I am happy for you! I KNOW you will do great!
yyyyyyyyyyyeaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyy Nancy! I’m so glad you’ve registered for your 1st race! I’d say register for the half marathon. 4 months is loads of time. Use the marathon training plan I emailed to you (I did email you the link did I?!). Seriously, it’s definately do-able. But you’ll have to stop running in the gym. That’s the only thing. You cant prepare for a road race by running on a treadmill. You have to be ready to run in the heat and humidity ye have over there.
How was your run this morning?
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY NANCY!!!!! sounds like it’ll be a breeze for you !
