{about this blog}
Hi I am Cathy. I am trying to lose 47 more pounds.
In 2008, I lost close to 90 pounds. I wanted to start off with a brand new blog to reflect the person I am today, rather than at my heaviest weight of 238 pounds (top pregnancy weight with number six back in November 2007.)
Yes, you read that right. I have six kids. One boy who is ten, and then we have five daughters that are ages 9,7,5,3 and 2. The blog header photo is a photo from October 2008 when I ran my first half marathon in 1 hour, 53 minutes and 36 seconds. I was 150 pounds.
Last year, I was 10K away from racing my very first Marathon. I injured myself, and didn't do any exercise for over 7 months of last year. I am am feeling great again, and I am currently in a 10K clinic which feels great (just did the LTR as well)
I have decided I would rather run, than not run at all. I will not beat myself up over the weight gain. I will get stronger, and when all six of the kids are in school, I can rev myself back up again! No pressure. I still want to run some more half marathons and of course a full. I know I can do it, it is just a matter of good timing.
