Remember back when I posted about Bringing Intention to Your Motivation ? I asked you all to write down what you intend to accomplish by training for this 5K.
Did anyone happen to notice that I met one of the goals I set for myself during this training period?
My first intention was to lose 10 lbs. My weigh in on Monday put me at 11 lbs lost since training began! The other half of that goal was to keep it off. Time will tell :)
My second intention was to feel a closer connection to those who have taken the time to care about what I am doing by participating in the race. I definitely feel like I have. I can't wait to see y'all in person though!
NOW-
I am going to pick on Leigh and Cheri, since they were the only ones brave enough to let the public know what their intentions were -
Leigh -
Is exercise becoming fun for your family?
Is Michael still getting his train on?
Does Jakob notice you are exercising?
I am sure your heart is getting stronger!
Cheri -
How is your pace doing?
Have you noticed improvements?
What about those of you who didn't post intentions. Do you have any now?
If you do, post 'em already!
*Mock Race Info*
We are heading to MI on Friday. I was thinking we could do a Mock Race on Saturday, July 5th. I'm not sure where yet. If anyone has any ideas, let me know via email. I don't want to post anything too public just in case weirdos are checking this site out.
Also, if you want to know where/when we decide to do it and I don't have your email address, send it to me!

Paying Attention to Our Intentions

Michael went running this morning too, so yes, he's been making it a part of his routine too as he's been wanting to lose weight. He hasn't really noticed a difference though... yet. I registered him for the race, but he volunteered to help someone out at work that day instead. We'll be running/walking the Crim 5K together though!
We have family walks almost every night before or after dinner. This is the most fun part of exercise because we're having family time and talking too. We don't go far but it's a start with Jakob's short legs. I want to continue this tradition so Jakob remembers our family time AND has had an early exposure to exercise.
I think my heart is getting stronger too!
ps: yay for mock race!
My intentions were to lose weight. But, that wasn't happening. Until... I talked to you about your diet! Yippee! I honestly have had no time to run, because I walk that mall so many times a day. I put in a mile each day there and that is walking with insanely uncomfortable sandals or shoes. Plus, since stopping from running in the summer, that asthma weird thing has gone away and that is nice. Your challenge, has kept me fit and challenged to turn my jobs into places where I can work out and I thank you for that! Love to you girl, thanks for your encouragement about recent matters I really, really appreciate it.
I am in for a trial run on Saturday. My email address is:
renararick@yahoo.com. Can't wait to see you and hear about your diet ideas.
My goal is to lose weight and inches and to be fit!!! I would like to see a difference in all these areas by my big race August 23rd. The 10 mile CRIM.
See you Saturday. Have a safe trip!!!
My intentions were to lose weight keep it off and find a new activity I could love :0)
