Now I get excited about up coming races. I'll be doing the San Diego Petco Half in March 2012. It's going to be huge and I can guess it will be hard to keep good pace on this one too. Most importantly, the race will be fun with great friends!

What Works for Me
Last year, my husband encouraged me to begin running. I was thirty pounds over weight, my cholesterol was crappy, and my self esteem was low. He started me out by doing 2 miles at my own pace. I couldn't even jog a half a mile without being winded. I literally made grunting & winded sounds. At that time, we had been doing P90x and somewhat of a diet. This only made my arms and thighs bigger. Running changed all this. In about 3 months I had worked up to 3 miles. It felt good. This is my Forest Gump moment: I decided why not run a longer distance? So I did just that! It was a natural progression. My weight began to come off. The diet I adhere is low carbohydrates with little to no carbs for dinner.
