So, I am training for a 5K. OK, stop laughing. I'm serious. It's in August, and no...I'm not gonna walk it.
Why, you ask? Because I can, that's why. Because I can run because my feet don't hurt. And I can breath and my knees aren't shot and my back can take it. And because I couldn't say any of these things a year ago.
In order to hold myself accountable, my friend, trainer and running partner told me that I am supposed to shout to the world that I am training for a 5K.
Brand new things are afoot, my friends. A new lifestyle, a new season, a new physical me.....
Oh, and I just might be falling in love....

*trumpets sound and the clouds part* Truly you are an inspiration! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to get back to watching tireless episodes of Desperate Housewives and chainsmoking. LOL. Good to see you blogging again lovergirl.... *wink*
As I read this post I heard this deafening thunder.....as I looked to its source,I realized it was the applause of the angelic host giving one of their own a well deserved standing ovation. Lizzie, I echo our friend Michelle: you are indeed an inspiration!
Good for you!!! Wish we lived closer so we could run together!
(Although it never came to fruition, Ericka and I were hoping to do a 10K together with shirts that said: "Diabetes and stroke run in the family... but they won't catch us!")
Mear's about to run this crazy race for the 4th time.
Hooray for physical activity!
