For the most part I survived Hurricane Ike. I did not get to go to the gym at all for a week because there was no power any where. For the first four days I simply ate, after all I was in survival mode. By day five I was feeling really ugly and something had to give.
I put on my running shoes and I was out the door. Exercise is so therapeutic. I am still doing cardio for 30 minutes, five times a week, but now I have made it mandatory that I run at least one mile during my cardio.
In the middle of the week Heather Pitts (my trainer) sent out an email that whoever wanted to meet her at Memorial Park to run, she would be there. I showed up and was a little scared that I would never be able to keep up because Heather is always running 5Ks’ on the weekends.
The only thing holding me back is me. I ran that first mile and then I walked the rest of my cardio. Not because I am tired or sore, but just because I THINK that. The whole reason why I ran the first mile to begin with is because Heather told me to. I believe if I am going to make this a life changing event I need to start doing this for me.
Here is Stacy's latest shot. Take a look at her before and after shots
