Still Here

I know, I know it has been awhile since I have written. I stay pretty up to date on Facebook though. Anyhew things are going well for us here on the East coast! In just 2 weeks Matt and I will be jet setting away on our HUGE trip for a few weeks. We are going to Disney World, Universal Studios, and then on a week long cruise to the Western Caribbean. I am very excited for our trip together.

I am still working out super hard, well not as hard as I should be but I am still trying to lose another 10 lbs by the trip, and well, that is proving to be more difficult that I thought. It is really hard to leave at night when I only get a few hours a day to spend with Matt before he has to go to bed. I have made some progress though. I AM A RUNNER! That is right. I have started running and it doesn't hurt my shins or anywhere else. I have run more than 3 miles as my longest run so far. Now I am just trying to get a faster speed. My goal is to run at least a mile every morning and then when I go back at night to run for 30 minutes and try to get 3 miles in to that 30 min. That is too fast for me right now and I can do about 2.5 miles in 30 minutes but still, back in November I could hardly walk on the treadmill for 30 minutes without dying from not being able to breath or something hurting. I am still doing the elliptical on top of that so I am really working the cardio. My goal is to run my first 5K this November without stopping! Which I have done but not on the open road, which is more difficult for me. Anyhew, I just wanted to let you know we haven't fallen off the face of the earth but we are still around.
