Commit to Fit Week One Recap

Happy Monday friends!

Remember the Commit to Fit challenge I talked about not so long ago? If your brain is as cluttered as mine lately you can refresh by reading about it here.

More importantly, everyone is doing awesome! I have to admit I was nervous launching this program for a few reasons. One being "Oh my gosh what if nobody signs up!" and another being "What if they sign up and it sucks!" Luckily so far so good and not only does it not suck but we are actually having a good time.

I don't know how many hours they killed or miles they traveled but I can tell you that the competition has gotten fierce and since they were all so close I decided to give gifts to the top 3 performers for the week instead of just number 1. Hope they all enjoy their Starbucks!

I can't say enough about how great these ladies (yes, all women....where you at men?) are doing and I really hope you'll consider joining us for the next session which will be getting started before we know it! Since they're all really only doing this for the fame, here are a few posts to sum up the week and get the next one started strong! I did however protect some of the names. I'm not looking to get sued or anything ;)

Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure 10K Race Recap

Wow, what a title right? Although I also could have titled it the greatest race of my life. Wanna know why? Yeah I thought you might. The week leading up to the race wasn't a great one. Stress at work, general grumpiness etc. etc. etc. So I really wasn't expecting much as far as performance but I wanted to get a 10K in really badly before the marathon relay this Saturday so I thought What the hell and signed up. The atmosphere at Komen events is like none other. Pink everywhere and people....so...many...people. For someone who hates crowds (i.e. ME) there are few things that will lure me to a crowded place. Races just tend to be one of those things. Anyway, there was a great survivors parade and all kinds of booths and music and general funness. What there wasn't plenty of was parking. Which I guess is the norm for an event of this caliber. Survivors' Parade Great Ladies I never got the chance to meet... Seriously packed at the start! Autumn Alexis, The Colonel and I g...

Rennay, Julie & Julia

Today I watched Julie & Julia (thanks Redbox !) and it was really good. If you haven't seen it, watch it. Anyhow, it really made me think about my life and blogging and cooking and all. So at this moment, I vow to be a better blogger...although as of right now I'm the only one affected by this decision.  Not that I think I'm terribly interesting, a very good writer or someone with things worth saying, however, I do think I have things that I want to say and if someone finds those things interesting...well that's just great. I recall asking my mom and other people pretty regularly, "What's wrong with me?" and/or "Why am I such a weirdo?" Lately it has been occurring to me that maybe I'm not a weirdo and that I'm just different. I'm a vegetarian, I love to read, I'm a foster parent to unwanted animals and I volunteer with middle schoolers for at least 4 months out of the year coaching speech and drama. I've graduated colleg...

The End of an Era

Almost exactly one year ago I decided that I was tired of being fat and sad. I was tired of crying in dressing rooms...and in my bedroom...and in the shower...and in the living room...and in my car...and...well, you get the picture. I decided that I was going to start exercising again. Before I continue what will be a very long (you've been warned) post, let me just mention that I make a lot of assumptions of my readers. I assume that people who read this actually know me in real life and therefore know a few things about me. I assume you all know the following, and if you don't already know, now you will: I was naturally skinny my entire life until the age of 22. I'd been relatively active throughout my life even though I lived for a year off of doritos and easy mac. I've run a half and full marathon. I went from being around 145lbs to probably 220lbs in the span of roughly 15 months. I've battled severe depression for a large portion of my life. I'm...
