Welcome to 2013 :)

For the new year, I am officially putting some of my goals in print.  My Nike+ FuelBand has me reaching goals already, but I have big plans :)  Check back for more goals, and updates on how I'm doing ;)



12 weeks - Holidays and illness

Have been terrible this week, no running.  Christmas early this week, no excuse but I just didn't made time and now I'm sick.  Good news is, my dad bought a new treadmill, so I truly have no reason not to run almost every day!

Nike+ FuelBand Nation!

I am SO excited to announce that I am the newest member of FuelBand nation thanks to my wonderful parents :)  Unfortunately I've been sick and not up for any real activity, but as soon as I am able I am so excited to start racking up fuel and reaching my goals!  Less than 12 weeks until the half marathon... Time to get my booty really moving!

The Sighting 5K

SO excited to participate in this race!!  It was a rainy Massachusetts morning, but a mild 54°

There were a lot more up-hills than I was prepared for, but overall it was still a great run and the Christmas spirit kept us all going strong!  We even enjoyed an after-race meal and cocktails at a local Mexican favorite spot!!!  Definitely a new tradition for my friends and I :)
