It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle, when the sun comes up you'd better be running." Author Unknown

Like pulling a rabbit out of a hat...

187.6

I have finally broken through the 188 barrier... not by much, but still!

Today is one of those days where you have a million things to do and just not enough *umph* to get started. Yesterdays goal was not met. Things just got a little twisted and the time that I thought I would have disappeared. Today I have a LOT of cleaning to do, plus band practice tonight at church. So I am not setting an exercise goal today... just a goal of finishing what I need to get done today!!

I am really watching what I eat since I am not working out as hard. I think that is why I am finally seeing a loss. I have until August to lose 20 lbs... and then I have to seriously start training for my half marathon in January. I'm excited to get started, but I know that unless I lose the weight I wont be able to run as far as I am hoping for.
