on celebrating the little things

I'm going to say it. I'll just be honest.

I REALLY like working out (aka swimming and running). My favorite part is strutting and flexing my new found muscles at the mirror and then singing along to Fergie's song "...up in the gym just working on my fitness!!" over and over again. Now, I'm not saying that I'm miss suave (hardly!) or that I don't still have a LONG way to go, but dammit I'm definitely in better shape than I was say, 6 months ago? That to me is awesome and something to be celebrated. Here's to the little things! (Like not having to suck it in to get your pants buttoned!)

I think its snapper time!! Cheers!!!

no more chafing

I signed up for a 5 K next week! And today I did some speed work during my usual run to get it use to running FAST!!!

I found a cool product for those of us with chafing issues: Bodyglide! Now I don't have to wear fat girl spandex shorts under my normal shorts on my long runs! Woohoo!!!
