Can I Do It?

As most of you know, I love scrapbooking. My favorite store in Birmingham, Scrap Etc., closed recently but Lucy (the owner) will still be hosting events. The next event is in October and the theme is Running with Scissors because they are combining it with the Susan G. Komen 5K Run. Well, I have never been a runner and the one time I tried with Marcela, it didn't go so well. Maybe I wasn't in the right mind set. Anyway, I decided to go ahead and register because if all else fails, I can always walk. But I am going to challenge myself and set a new goal to run, at least most of it. I have decided to begin training Monday and will follow a beginners 5K plan I got off the health.com website. Wish me luck and if you would like to donate to the cause, just let me know or go to my Facebook page. By the way, my weigh-in on Thursday went well; I lost another pound making my total 21 lbs! Sylvia, my trainer, wants me to lose more fat before I start seriously toning so this training program should help that effort. I am really excited; Clint even said the other day "It is obvious you are going to reach your goal." That is monumental coming from him because he is pretty pessimistic. If anyone would like to join our team for the run, let me know.

Have a great night.
