We parked, we stretched and we got to the starting line. We were somewhere in the middle of the pack. While waiting for our turn, I was busy preparing my running playlist and my runkeeper app. I was also tweeting! LOL
At the 4K mark, I decided to finish hard. Whatever that means. I passed the finish line … running. YAY!!
Hey there! I’m a mom of two who loves to crochet. Balancing work and motherhood is crazy, but I handle it with love and humor. With my eldest entering her tween years, the chaos just got a whole lot more interesting!
I’m fueled by coffee and dream of working from home. When I need to chill, I turn to my trusty essential oils. They’re my secret weapon for staying sane in the madness.
Join me for mom life, crochet, and my journey to work from home and retire before life passes me by.

Hey Grace, you just have to decide to do it. I’m really heavy and I started, I couldn’t even run 500 meters straight. LOLS
It gets better. Just do it.

Thanks Kero! I’m still a work in progress. 🙂
Walking for 30 – 60 mins a day helps. It also clears my mind. I’m lucky to live near the park where I can jog/walk whenever.

Great job! Congratulations!!! I wonder when in my lifetime will I be able to shed weight.

Thanks Lizzie!! I was certain I would be crawling my way back. I saw someone sitting by the gutter and a medic was attending to her. A fallen comrade. I’m sure she fought hard.

Good on you! I still dream of doing my first 5K!
