Shredhead

After a 2 month hiatus

from anything

healthy or exercise

I am back on the bandwagon

I did lose 10 pounds….

not in a healthy way

I am not an emotional eater so losing

mom…well I just didn’t eat.

Today was DAY 2

of

Jillian’s 30 Day Shred.

I can barely move!

Treadmill is dusty…I may start that again too.

What have you been doing to stay in shape?

Are you being more diligent with Christmas coming

and

all of the good food that will be had?

You, Go Girl

 

September 18th I ran

well, wogged

(walked/jogged)

You, Go Girl half

in Tacoma.

I was going to re-cap

the race.

I finished.

I was a tad faster

than See Jane,

but you see

I received a phone call at

6 the next morning.

My mother had passed away.

I was at my besties house near Seattle.

I was 6 hours from home.

My younger two were en-route to Alaska

on a cruise with my MIL.

My hubs was home.

My older two lead their own lives.

We were NOT together.

Suddenly, finishing my 2nd

half marathon seemed so

unimportant.

I hadn’t talked to mom

to tell her

I finished.

So.

I know I often take blog breaks.

I haven’t run since the race.

I do know this.

I won’t stop running.

I want to run a marathon

when I am 80!

Mom was 81.

So

please bare with me as I

have been quiet here

and on my

other blog

MamaKautz.com

I will be back!

another half

This Sunday!

I have run a total of

MAYBE 4 times

since my last half

I have all sorts of reasons

and

excuses

It is what it is

I know I will finish

I hope I PR

I still like to run

I feel great after I have run

I just am not making it a priority

life is happening

kids

mom

life

I need to refocus

I need to run again!
