Tomorrow is it!

July 16, 2010

The Bluegrass State Games 5K Run/Walk is tomorrow! Can you believe it? A nearly 400 pound person doing a 5K. Trainer Rob wants me to do it as high intensity, meaning there will be some sprints in there. I’m hoping to finish in under an hour. That may not seem like much to some, but for me, it’s huge. I am taking these steps to become healthier, and I’m glad I’ll have a group of friends out there with me as well.

From Twitter earlier today:

Not only will Shay be there, but she tweeted me some encouragement too! (I know you guys think I’m probably some crazy fan, but really I’m not. Her being on the show was one of the things that contributed to my “aha moment-” that I need to take charge of my life and claim it as my own.)

I’ll add photos and videos tomorrow night or Sunday. Yay!
