3 things thursday

hello blog world and "welcome" to my new followers! i've notice quite a few new faces and i'm so glad to have you along! when i reach 50 followers, we will have a giveaway! so tell your friends about me :)

sorry to have been MIA yesterday, but work has been busy! and also, writing a post after guest blogger, katye, now that's very intimidating! thanks again for your wonderful post

1. i joined someones challenge, jillian micheals 30 day shred, and had every intention of starting yesterday. i woke up early and put the dvd in...it started playing, but then got to the part where you have to select a scene-- i lost my remote years ago and could not switch selections! so much for that! but while making my breakfast & lunch it did give me the idea to only make food: no more fast food! i am challenging myself not to eat fast food for the rest of the month! i may give myself a little leeway on the weekends, but during the week absolutely no fast food! let's see if i can do this?? can you?

2. last night's practice didn't go too well. now, my other shin is bothering me! (but not to fret, i made another airrosti appt for tomorrow so hopefully i'll be healed for my 14 mile run!) i walked the whole way...and don't think i quite made it to 4 miles. i did ice when i got home and foam rolled. i am completely in love w/foam rolling! it is instant relief...for the moment anyway! will keep ya posted!

3. katye also awarded me with the "cherry on top award." yay for my second award! :)

The Rules:

1. Answer this question: If you had the chance to go back and change one thing in your life, would you and what would it be?

that is a very hard question because i truly believe all the choices i have made, right or wrong have made me the person i am today. i think kenny chesney says it best in one of my favorite songs,

a lot of things different.

i would definitely have taken more risks and less chances. after hearing this song, i have made a conscious effort to live by these lyrics.


2. The second thing you have to do is, pick 6 people and give them this award. You then have to inform the person that they have gotten this award.

    What's involved in the SHRED? I've heard of this a few times.

    Thanks for the great award ... I received it twice over the last two weeks - here is my initial response - but I want to thank you for picking me. It really means a lot to be in such a great group of runners!

  2. i have to agree - i made some mistakes in my dating past, but those lead me to "resort" to finding love via the internet - and thereby finding my husband! i'd hate to mess that one up!

    thanks for the award - i'll have to get my post up in a couple days. maybe i'll schedule it for Labor day since I'll be out and about and unable to post.

  3. I love the Jillian challenge! I've been trying to do a mix of the book and p90x. I'm soooo sore!

  4. Thanks for the award! :) And good luck on the no eating out challenge! That would be a tough one for me. But the only meal I typically eat out is dinner. I think it would be a fun challenge though to come up wtih new recipes and such. I will be here cheering you on!

  7. I have had that problem with losing the DVD player remote too. :) Hope you get to give the shred a try, it is a fun, hard workout! I like level 2 the best.

  8. Thanks for the tag! I agree with you - changing the past (good or bad) might not leave me where I am today.

    LOL about the remote situation. You could play the DVD on your computer?
