Warning, insane rambling ahead
Do you ever have that moment of clarity where you KNOW you have to change...like it takes your breath away and you are focused?? Just me, OK
I have been a smoker forever, not something I have ever been proud of, but continued to do. I quit with both pregnancies and while nursing, but went back after having my boys.
Well, I was talking to my husband last night and I was just plain disgusted with myself, and seeing my awesome friend Ryann's FB page with video clips & pictures of her running a 1/2 marathon in support of her niece, it clicked - I'm going to quit smoking & start running.
Mike almost choked.
Then about an hour later checking on my Mommy Board, our dear sweet Andrea (www.andreareneeremembers.blogspot.com) is having a 5K run to support the Matt Row Memorial Foundation end of August, my birthday to be exact.
The timing to was a bit too coincidental for me to ignore this sign, go ahead laugh, I believe in that shit. I am going to Buffalo, NY and run this 5K in support of not only our sister Andrea and her beautiful family, but for me too!!
I do nothing (ok very little) for myself. I always, always, always put myself last and then end up angry at everyone else. Do I just scream "she needs therapy???"
I'm setting a goal and I WILL achieve it.
Btw - I had to look up 5K Run last night, it's 3.1 miles in case you didn't know...
That's all I got today...I'll keep you updated
