Wow- its been a LOOOOOOOOOOONG time since I've been here and I come back to see Soror Ideal is going to complete a marathon-- yaya- you go Soror!

I am currently training with Team in Training (I saw your reference in your MV blog) to complete the Capital of Texas Triathlon on May, 28. Training is tough, but fun. I am getting toned all over, but I am having to VERY CAREFUL about what I eat b/c as you will find, when you train for an endurace event you are always hungry. So, I had to check myself and re-focus on correct portion size and correct carb/protein/fat ratios. Once re-focused I have lose 5 lbs in the past two weeks- just on paying attention to my food and sticking with my TNT triathlon training program.

Ideal, I highly suggest training with TNT for your marathon. The training program is great, you will meet wonderful people and have a blast, all while raising money for a great cause. If you'd like to hear more about LLS just pm me.

Also, I wanted to say wrt the marathon you don't have to just choose between running all out or walking all out. I am completing the run portion of the event by doing run/walk. This means I run 4 mins and walk 1- you can do any variation you like from a 4/1 split up to a 12/1 split and the TNT coaches will help you figure that out too.

You go!!!

2) Gonna complete a marathon next year. See blog link in siggie.

3) Once I start my marathon training, I'm going to pay to join www.fitnessjournal.org. It seems worth the money; just enough bells and whistles for my tastes.

4) Going to get pics put on disc today. Will start weigh-loss Fotki today. Stay tuned...

5) Soror Camii, can you teach me about this tomato/cilantro sauce?

6) Delph, it IS a hard journey, but we can do it!!!
