HERE WE GO !!!!

what did i get myself into??

I have been researching about how to train for a marathon when you are overweight and out of shape… WOW do I have a long road ahead of me.
Everything that I have read says that you have to be able to run for 30 minutes straight before even starting the training. I don’t think I have ever ran for 30 minutes straight, I don’t even think I can run for 1 min straight right now. Tee hee hee. I have given myself permission to eat and drink what ever I want until January 3rd (because it is a monday)But after that it's focus, focus, focus.

Does this blog make my ass look big?

Okay I am starting this blog because I need to hold myself “accountable” for my actions. Having said that I have gained about 75 lbs. in the last 8 years and I am ready to get rid of it! (in case you can not comprehend that) It’s like carrying around a 4th grader on your back everyday of your life.... Sooooooo It’s that time of year again...........AGAIN?? Oh shit another year has gone by and I am still fat? I can remember saying to myself every New Year’s Eve “next year I will be skinny.” Well this is the year I am ready to do something about it. While sitting with my family on Christmas Day, my Dad asked me if I was was going to run a marathon with him in October 2011? After a few glasses of wine… Okay who am I kidding the whole damn bottle I agreed to run with him. I woke up the next morning thinking of ways I could get out of it, then I realized that is how I got here in the first place. So here I go no more excuses!!
