A few of you may be wondering where some of the matchups & deals are this weekend ? I typically don’t write much about my personal life on FTM, but a few months ago, I shared my plan to get rid of my blogger’s butt.
This weekend was my very first Spartan Race. Six months ago, I didn’t exercise at all. With the help of Jason at N-Motion Fitness and the group of ladies/gents you see above, I was able to conquer the impossible. My time wasn’t great, in fact, it stank, but I completed it and crossed the finish line. I couldn’t have done it without these folks.
The group above is a great bunch - they are Moms and Dads juggling full time jobs, families – normal people. Some of them have lost incredible amounts of weight, some of them are in amazing shape and some of them are amazing motivators.
So, I am behind on deals and matchups – but, I wouldn’t trade this weekend for world. I am sore, black and blue – but it feels good. If you have always wanted to do something – you can do it. Don’t doubt yourself – get out there and do it!
I will be playing catchup today – so please hang in here with me!
Congrats to each of you. You all look GREAT! My sister in laws are both runners now and they too started from “scratch”. Every effort we put into making ourselves more comfortable and
healthy matters most to us and we should be very proud of ourselves for this.
Congrats to you! That is a fantastic accomplishment. Time does not matter at all, finishing does!
Peggy, thank you so much for the encouragement.
Congrats Shannon! Keep up the great work, on and off the blog! :)
