And so it begins...

Today was the first official day of training for the River Bank Run. I can successfully run one mile! Yes! This was actually the first time in quite awhile that I pushed myself that much while running, so I was quite proud of myself! Only 14.5 more to add to that 1! The race is May 8, 2010 so I have quite a bit of time.

On another positive note, I weighed in this morning for the first time since the week before Thanksgiving and was pleasantly surprised! Two big dinners and I managed to actually lose a pound! Hooray! I was anticipating a very unfriendly number this morning, so that was really encouraging.

I fly out for my Caribbean cruise two months from today!!! I am really excited! My goal for the cruise is to be back in the 140s, which would be a 15 pound loss. (Well, I'd really love to reach my goal weight of 133, but I don't think that will happen!) I think it'll be tough to make goal with Christmas, but I am going to work hard!!

I am off to relax in these dwindling hours of a wonderful four day weekend! It went so fast!

grace + peace,
mindy
