It is amazing how fast things come when you work at it...

Today was Saturday thus my long run day! It still amazes me hours later how far I have come from dying during my first mile runs to running 7.52 miles in 12 1/2 minute miles. I really do continue to amaze myself! I have come so far and for the first time in my life I can honestly say I am proud of myself. Yes I have blisters, I have bruises, I have aches but all of these things are evidence of the hard work I am doing. Hit -39 today! Tomorrow will be -40 and then -45 before I know it. In the last ten years the lowest I have been is 10 pounds away. I am going to surpass it by many pounds and am super excited to reach new marks that is once thought impossible! This new atronger, healthier me is taking leaps where I was once scared! I love feeling capable of great things.
