My battle with my weight!

God this has been a fight.. The dam chemo messed me up so fuckin bad .. It is so hard for me to keep it off. Well this year I am going to work hard on it..

So far so good.. I have lost 8 lb.  since 1 Jan 2009 .. 20 lb to go.

My New Years Resolutions

These are not in any real order just random thoughts

  1. Train better I need to try and not waste time thinking about how I train and just go and do it.
  2. I want do the House projects that I have in the House project worksheet. I need to get the house fixed up.
  3. LOOSE Weight. I hate the way I look and feel. I know that if I lost the weight that I want I would be able to run easier. 
  4. I need to eat better. I am eating way to much shit.. I know that this will help with running.
  5. I want to finish the JFK 50.
  6. I want to do my first full marathon
  7. I am going to try and get get enough rest and sleep (minimum of 6 hours a night, please) in between hard workouts for repair and better performance.
  8. I will try and remember that  there are no stupid questions.
  9. I want to read more.

Donna 26.2 Marathon

Well I did it I ran the 1/2 in Jacksonville.. It was a great day... but warm much warmer than I thought.. almost 80 and I had trained in 30 to 40 degrees so what a difference.. I did the best thing that I could I slowed down and finished.. I ran with a pace group.. smart move.. Then I met a guy and we ran together.. It was also a smart move.. We finished it.. a bit slower than I wanted but I finished.. This was the first year for the race and it was a blast . They did a great job.. There were no water issues and swag was good.. I think my dad had a good time as well.. See the pictures below.
