So, my schedule said I was to do a 3+mile run and strength today. Although my shins feel better, I didn't want to overdue it. So, I walked fast for 30 minutes going up one incline every 2 minutes, did the stair stepper for 8 minutes and finished with 20 minutes on the eliptical! I love the eliptical, but I found my true love at the gym....the Stair Stepper!! It burns so good :)
Eating yesterday was awesome. I have been skipping the clif bars and yogurt in the morning and having a cup of grapes as an afternoon snack, because I am always hungry 2 hours after lunch. So, it's like my desert :) TOM is coming though and I always want lots of chocolate! Not this month, I am not going to go overboard on the chocolate :)
Something for fun: When I was 5 years old, I skipped cheerleading practice to go ride my older friends bike. The bike was so big that I had to go to a curb to get on it. Well, when I was riding it, I miscalculated a turn and crashed into a chain link fence. The bike fell over and I followed planting my face into the handle bar of the bicycle. I don't want to be too graphic here, but I literally had a hole in my lips/cheek. I had stitches and plastic surgery, but it "spread" after surgery from me smiling too much. So, now I have a scar on my lower lip about an inch and a half long!! It took about 17 years, but I finallly accept and love the scar because it's a story, a part of my history :)
Have a great day everyone!! You'll be hearing from me later tonight :)

I've been hearing some great things about the stair-stepper, I may just need to give this a try!
You are doing SO good, you will be at 110 in NO TIME!

A scar from smiling too much! We should all be so lucky! :)
I'm glad the shins are feeling better!
All scars are beautiful because they tell the stories of our life! Embrace them! :)
Ah the stair stepper...brings me back to my college days! I used to walk backwards on it :) That is fun but there can be many mishaps! LOL You are just so darn cute too! I love how honest you are in your post and open up just a little more every time. I feel like I am getting to know you as a friend of mine ;)Keep it up girly 110 will get here quickly!
great workout!
When I was little my two cousins (boys) dared me to ride down a really steep hill on my bike pedelling the whole time down. Needless to say I did it i had a black eye and my two front teeth were knocked out a week before my communion. i was always terrified of what would happen before my wedding day, luckly I was ok :-)
Embrace the scar that's what makes you unique and beautiful
I see scars as a confirmation of a life well-lived. They make you so much more interesting.
awesome story! I love scars with cool stories behind them.
Great post! Just watch those shin splints cause they can flare up out of no where. The best thing I found for them: foam rolling. It helps SO much!
ouu, love the burn of the stairstepper aswell!
Congrats on the training and the upcomming marathons!
Keep blogging!
