Happens to people on my blog all the time, and perhaps it's there somewhere, but it's probably karma for all the times I've said I'll look into the problem and think about switching platforms but never do.<br /><br />Anyway, great that your goals are so vivid and specific! Works much better than vague "shoulds" especially when temptations are not nearly as vague, and are in fact sometimes RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE.

Last year, it rained so hard the entire race that there were many times you couldn't see across the street. I had a horrible finish time, but I finished. It may sound crazy, but after I finished that course, I had the feeling that there was nothing I couldn't do and that attitude has carried me through the last year. I am hoping that the weight I've lost since last year combined with the fact that I never stopped training will carry me through to a better finish this year. You have such a great attitude about this whole journey - it really inspires me!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-14498768839586796612014-07-28T08:46:22.618-05:002014-07-28T08:46:22.618-05:00How exciting!

I wonder if she's going to talk about it?<br /><br />Golly, seeing a half-marathon mapped out makes it look even longer! Its the same distance as it it from my house to the town of Jackson.

I'm going to use that when I start watching my weight again because I never had a goal in mind, something to look forward too and helps you make it through the hard parts. Great idea Shelley, thanks! And I can't wait to see you finish on that half with a big smile on your vace.
