Still here:)

Oh my goodness, I have been so busy that I haven't even had time to do some posts on my fitness blog. I get my oldest son off to school, go to the gym for 2 hours, come home for some lunch then off to the pool. My boys and I did that 6 days in a row last week and I am still so tired and drained from all the sun. My 7 year old begged me to go to the pool today and I felt bad but I had to say no. We all need a brake from the sun.
So back to health and fitness. My diet has been better. Not 100% like I need/ want it to be but doing better. I've bumped up my workouts and feel great. I can tell that I am getting stronger and stronger. My legs are slowing getting more toned. My belly on the other hand not so much:/ When I start eating like crap, my belly is the first place my inches and weight goes to. But I'm still workout hard and going to try even harder to work on my healthy eating.
I also have another race coming up this Saturday. It's just a 5k but like I've said before, my 5k's are always so hard because I push myself sooooo dang hard to have a good time and to try and bet my previous times (really it depends on the course) and plus with a 5k, you really don't have time to let your body warm up. You try and run fast as you can since it's only 3.1 miles but boy is it hard.
I still haven't reached my goal of running 3 miles in 21 minutes (on treadmill) but I am super close.

Some goals that I want to reach in the next 6 weeks are:
-100% healthy eating except for my cheat meals.
-Increase my weights for better results on toning which also helps with my speed for running
-reach my 21 minute 3 mile goal
-loose 10 pounds (yes I have gained about 6 pounds back due to my bad eating habits:(

So here's to healthy eating, and a healthy life style. LETS DO THIS :)
