Wednesday Mid Week Recap! Fit Life, Family Time and on the Grind!!

My Baby Girl she is 2 1/2 and my dog " Happy"

Hey Readers, so it is Hump Day Wednesday, already, it is the middle of the week, and here  in Georgia children last day of school, and the sign of Summer Vacation. Well today my toddler is a stay at home baby girl and get to enjoy the comfort of home and learning socially and curriculum with me. As a mom of a baby I waited some years for it is always refreshing to see the changes in her growth, and I now cant believe she is 2 1/2 and will be 3 at the end of July. In saying that today it was so beautiful me, her and the doggie Happy hung out and had a picnic at Panda Express sat outside and ate. My baby got her first little purse at this coolest consignment store. So, This morning I ran at 4am did 6miles with my running crew. It was a slow pace because I got a chance to talk with a fellow runner that is at a slower pace and I never really had a conversation. I learned a lot about her and she is so sweet! I get to enjoy women and their lives on the pavement and it bounds on the pavement. I did not do any weights today I came home. I actually took a bad fall on my Monday run, that I wanted my ankle and knee to be on easy street. So tomorrow, will rock out on cardio and my Hour of power. I miss the class on Tuesday to sleep later and my ankle was swollen. I have a race on Memorial Day a 10k so I need to be in tip top shape because I am going for speed. I will have another running mate with me, my main buddy is on a running break. My goal is to still reach, 25-30 miles this week and get to more days of weights. Also, reminder, please make sure that you are getting your H20, 64oz minimum of water.

Monday Motivation and Workout "Get It Girl 4/21/14 You Can Do It Too!!

Hey Readers, Got a Few Updates and Workout Continue Plan for You, Last week I ended up taking 3days of rest do to I was just tired out. Rest from running and workout class. But Got Back on the stick Sunday evening with a 3 mile run. So for your motivation today and for the week, " Do you surround yourself with others that enjoy working out and running or some sort of fitness? or do you hang with people that do nothing? Well  to stay motivated one must know why you are taking care of your body on a weekly basis, Is it to be Healthy and Strong or endurance to support your family activities. A quick way to fall out of the workout and running is going through the motions of life, and not having a plan. Everyone has a plan to work and take care of your family which is your means of financial support but what about your health. I worked a job that took up all of my time to ware it was so hard to exercise, and it made me unhappy with the employment. It absorbed so much of my time me and my husband were passing ships. I was gaining weight did gain weight it was terrible and I was miserable. I never work somewhere that it controlled me. So once I left and created alternative business during my stay with that job I had more time to balance a better life. This is so important for moms and people everywhere. Make sure you are happy first, you can not get your time back, I believe exercise make you feel, look and naturally happy. Make a plan weekly for yourself. Even through I miss my a few days for rest I am back on the saddle. Even include your children this makes a healthy lifestyle for the whole family. Here is my Plan for the Week:
Monday: 4mile run outdoors( no weights today )
Tuesday: Cardio, Stairmaster, and Elliptical Machine: Hour of Power Full Body Weights
Wednesday: 5mile outdoor run and legs/abs/calves
Thursday: 3miles indoor treadmill, and Hour of Power Full Body Weights
Friday: 6mile outdoor run and upper body/arms( modify looking to do a new workout)
Saturday: Tenative Rest Day or Tot Trot for my Toddler
Sunday: 10K Biggest Loser Run
My minimum goal per week of miles 25-30 per week

Mid Week Workout Review: Stay Strong Run/ Workout ! Get it Girl

Hey readers, well I am getting the hang still of posting, I had posted on Monday, but I guess it did not up date or something, I will get better. It is the mid-week and my workout has been great and consistent. I am testing out a detox this week so I will updated everyone next week how it went and what the results are .I added this because it is good to do a spring cleaning of the body. I use to get colonics  all time but got away from it since  I moved from my hometown. As of Monday I have completed 8 full months of non-stop workouts YEAH!, have not stop. Have I seen difference? Yes, I am much toner, and stronger. I love it shape has changed with less looseness. I think is the combination for running also. I will state, I did not have a weight loss goal but a few pounds and much need toning, because that is so sexy to me. Also a tight body keeps you looking good and youthful no matter the age. But as you age it is important to keep it tight. Far as running my lovely best friend, well it is on track, no miss group runs and have gotten on the schedule of long runs on the weekends by myself.. I decided to try to keep 25-30 miles per week run schedule. This also help with keeping my caloric count at 3500 per week. Have a few races scheduled coming up before it gets to hot outside. One other thing I am admin of a workout group online, so look out!. Getting ready for the Summer, it will be 2 piece swimsuit this year, and leaning down for a fabulous dress to go to a party celebrating a running mate weight loss accomplishment in May...

The ReCap of a Run/Workout Week!: Remix of The Get it Girl 4/4/14

Hi everyone, well it is the first of the month of April and I am off to a good start. The weather has held up so I was able to run outdoors three times this week and do 15miles. My goal per week is 20 to 25 miles. So this weekend if the weather hold I will do my long run Saturday or Sunday. My in the gym mode "Get it Girl" workout was awesome and I have added more weight during my hour of power class, squatting more heavier very proud of that. I will be adding some supplements to my regiment, and will discuss those  soon. At this time I only use pre-workout, pre-natal vitamin and MSM for my joints which is works fine for running. Oh,  I do magnesium and biotin as well magnesium for muscles and biotin for hair. The biotin I do not use daily because I breakout in ache I use it for my hair especially after each wash I double up. I have signed for two more races this month. Reason well the prices tend to go up and trying to save money on them to fit the budget. I do love racing however, as a Mommy on a budget, and a Budgetnesta, love fun but want others to know that yes, you can race and not cost you. A part of racing and running that it is one of the low cost hobbies a person can have. All you need is a good pair of running shoes which you should go to a specialty running store to get fitted very important for your feet. Another is please you do not need all of the gadgets that are out there to run. I have learned that, for instance, I track my miles for free with a running app on my android. I so wanted the Garmin or the Tom Tom, but because it is a costly item, I have put that on the backburner. My run app does just fine, and heck I pay a cell phone bill use the free applications. I thought I needed the compression socks immediately, because being new my running group talk about them how great they are then they(not me) fell off running during the cold months. I am a true believer that you should be consistent in taking care of your body so I had  to re-think through what is it for exactly, not saying I may buy them in the future, but I have learned after my long runs, to do a recovery run the next day and drink protein shakes. Oh, don't forget the awesome clothes, well that is lovely which of course love the workout gear, I am at the gym five days a week at 4 or 5 am plus run 4 days a week so this is a budget item as well. Walmart, Ross, Kohls, Marshalls have great things and for the low. I do get really cute for my race for pictures so that is my splurge but cheap. I have found name brand upscale items at Ross for $14 and $10 bucks!! can't bet that. I want people to know don't think this hobby is expense it is not but people can make it that way. My goal also includes, run a Full Marathon in 2015, and get my speed up so that I can join the Track Club Competitive Team in my age group. Hope you enjoyed this ReCap/Remix... Stay inspired
