My brother Steven has been training the same time as me for the 5k. He is lucky and gets to do it in a gym. We did set a goal to workout every Saturday together. He came over a little before 10 this morning and we went on a brisk walk out in the cold. Check it out. We put 3 miles of pavement behind us.
We had a lot of fun. Talked about a lot of things. It took us 70 minutes to do the walk. I am excited to be able to someday run it and not walk it with him. I need to remember to take it slow and not be discouraged.
Watched a killer movie last night called Spirit of the Marathon. I cried and became determined to run one before the end of 2012. Jenn said she would do one with me. I am glad I watched it last night, I was really wanting to cheat and eat. It got me re-focused and excited.
Thank you everyone who has helped me stay on track and commented on my blog. I do read them and they do mean a lot to me!

Chris! Didn't you just LOVE the Spirit of the Marathon?!? It had the same effect on me. Trust me when I say there's nothing more satisfying than finishing a race - no matter the distance.
Thanks for your inspiration and determination. I too am trying to turn over some new leaves this year and become healthier and more fit. You've totally got it!!
