YESTERDAY , TOOK MY SON TO GET SOME NEW TENNIS SHOES, AND MY DAUGHTER WENT WITH ME,, THE LITTLE SALES CLERK WAS SHOWING HIM SOME SHOES,, YOU KNOW WHEN YOU WEAR ABOUT A SIZE 14, QUAD E,, YOU ASK WHAT YOU HAVE, NOT PICK OFF, BUT SHE SAID, THESE ARE THE KIND OF SHOES OUR MARATHONERS USE, AND BOTH OF MY KIDS CHIMED IN AND SAID, SHES A MARATHONER,, THAT TOUCHED ME, YOU KNOW HOW KIDS ARE, YOU NEVER REALLY KNOW IF THEY ARE PROUD OR MAYBE EMBARRASSED, BUT THEY SAID WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU,, THOUGHT I MIGHT TEAR UP, THEN HALEY SAID, YEAH AND SHES ALMOST 50, HA,, THANKS HALEY, BUT DOES HELP AND INSPIRE. THE HUSBAND ( IN IRAQ) IS ALWAYS ASKING AND WANTING TO KNOW MORE AND MORE. I WAS GLAD TO READ THAT ABOUT WHAT MARK SAID ABOUT THE 3 MONTH THING.. I CAN TELL NOW IN MY CLOTHES THAT THEY ARE LITTLE LOSER BUT POUNDAGE ITS ONLY LIKE 4 LBS,SINCE WE STARTED, KINDA DISHEARTENING UNTIL I WROTE WHAT MARK SAID. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOU DO AND WHAT YOU ARE DOING. YOU ARE REALLY MAKING A MAKEOVER DIFFERENCE IN MY LIFE, ,NOT JUST IN RUNNING, AND LIVING HEARTHIER BUT I CAN TELL IN OTHER WAYS, MY HUSBAND EVEN MENTIONED IN HIS EMAILS,, HE SAID YOU EVEN SOUND LIKE YOU ARE SMILING WHEN YOU WRITE.

tuff

TODAY WAS TUFF FOR ME,, DONT KNOW WHAT IT IS, I NOTICED IT LAST WEEK, MY LEGS WERE JUST KILLING ME, EVEN ASKED ABOUT IT THIS MORNING, THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE IM NOT A REALLY GOOD STRETCHER BEFOFE I DO ANYTHING, BUT DID IT THIS MORNING.. AND DIDNT EVEN RUN THAT FAST, WAS ABLE TO RUN TO THE COMING BACK PART ON 2 MILER, BUT BY TIME I GOT FINISHED I DIDNT KNOW IF I COULD HAVE MADE IT BACK, THEY WERE HURTING SO BAD, MY BODY WANTED TO, BUT THE LEGS WERE JUST GOING TO CARRY ME, VERY DISHEARTENING. I TALKED TO MARK ABOUT IT, AND WE KINDA COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT IT MIGHT BE MY SHOES.. I DIDNT GO TO FLEET FEET, I HAD SOME, THAT I HAD BOUGHT AT A STORE THAT HANDLES ALL KINDS OF SPORTS STUFF, COUPLE MONTHS BEFORE WE STARTED THIS SO I THOUGHT THEY WOULD DO ALRIGHT, BUT IM THINKING THEY MIGHT BE WORE OUT AND JUST NOT RIGHT FOR ME ANYMORE,, I CANT GET TO JACKSON UNTIL NEXT SAT SO ILL JUST WATCH IT DURING THE WEEK AND GO NEXT SAT AND GET NEW ONES.. JUST HOPE THATS WHATS THE MATTER, 2 WKS AGO WHEN WE DID CLINTON,I WAS ABLE TO RUN THE WHOLE 4 MILES WITH NO TROUBLE, SO SOMETHING IS DIFFERENT.
IT WAS FUN TODAY THOUGH, NICE TO MEET NEW FOLKS, WE HAVE SUCH A GOOD GROUP,, AND WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT THE CINNAMON BREAD, IT WAS SOO GOOD.

love this weather

isnt this weather just wonderful! i put on shorts and long sleeve t shirt to do my running/walking today, hope i didnt blind to many folks these stark white legs, ha,, but thats ok,, i was able to do 4 miles in 55 min, little slower but my legs felt like lead sometimes, but i felt good, breathing was good so i kept on going. i think saturday the weather is suppose to be warmer also,, i just would rather do outside stuff in shorts,,but its all good, just glad im doing this, ive already even found someone who wants to do this with me next year, and i surely hope i do..
i had the superfoods salad today, and it was really good, i had a piece of baked chicken with it and i was full, then for supper i was going to have popcorn and some yogurt, but microwave is ready for microwave heaven, so it wouldnt make, so i had half of a whole grain wheat muffin and yogurt, it was pretty good,,
hard day at work today and running has tired me out, so im prob not far from bed. my house is empty for now, both kids in college, and hubby in iraq working, so empty next during the week, so i dont have to cook,, but i do miss it.. hubby told me today he will be home march 25 for 10 days, day before i turn the big 50. just a number, ha, i think!
hope you all have had a good day, and good night, now gotta go write in y journal,, just had 1 1 /2 cokes today,, better, but prob not good enough,
later all

saturday

for some reason this sat was much harder than last sat.. shouldnt have been, ground was softer and path much straighter , but i stayed up too late last night, and ate a big supper about 8 and i knew when i woke up this morning i wouldnt do as well, last sat i went to bed early and didnt eat much after about 5, that will be my plan from now on,, i did run i guess, 3 1/2 miles but still it was a struggle today, will get my training down on what i can and cant do.
really good meeting today, very informative, stuff i really needed to hear,i looked my book over when i got home , went out and bought a few of the groceries at the wally world to get me going, ( those darn girl scouts were selling cookies right at the door and they were so cute, had to buy just 1 box,, well ok,, 2 boxes, ha). going to try and make a really good effort in eating what im suppose, but im like robin there are some things im just not going to do without, and one is my d cokes,, im just really going to try and do in moderation.. so that means if by weeks end im cussing in these blogs just know man she has really cut back, ha,, plus im going to try and blog everyday. nice to meet more folks today, and nice to look around esp when your running/walking to know who your about in the same speed with and you can make friends,, this is all a very good thing.. and thanks nissan nurse for the high 5 when i ran past you, just the boost i needed to keep on running.. we might just have to be each others inspiration. ha,,
hope you all have a good sat night..
later!

thursday!

whew, thursday finally got here,, tomorrow is our off today, but really ill miss my exercises, makes me just feel better, went up into the country between mendenhall and puckett where all my kin live , and there is a loop of 4 miles that ive done before, and all my cousins do, and i run/walked that today, did it in 51 min,, legs little achy now, but still feel good. ill be so glad when the weather warms up,, ( remind in july that i said this). and daylight wears on forever. if anyone has underarmour they know its worth the money, for the ones that dont, you need to invest, they make all the difference for me, im not a cold weather person at all, and freeze from nov until april, but the underarmour helps alot. even the generic underarmour from wally world is good,, i have both and really cant tell the difference in one or the other, i dont wear the bottoms but the tops help alot.
im looking forward to saturday, i ran all the 4 miles in clinton sat but it was kinda flat, im gonna do the 4 miles sat also, but might not be able to run it all, but thats ok, its like mark said that first day, im not trying to be a kenyan, im just trying to finish . sent my money in today for the marathon, so im fully committed now, was anyway but wanted to get the money in.
hope you all have a good restful day tomorrow , see ya saturdar

blogs

i love reading everyone's blogs, they inspire and give me new ideas.
the weather was bad here in here mendenhall last night, kept me up from about 3-415, so needless to say when that clock went off at 5 i re-set it until 630,, then all day i felt guilty for doing it, rushed home at 5 , changed into running clothes got about 1/4 mile from the house and it started raining AGAIN! ha, so i ran even faster back home. but i did get 45 min on the treadmill , 3.5 mile,, now im starving, headed to bed before i eat something. im looking forward to our meeting sat, to the running and to have our meeting about the foods we need to eat.
take care.

JUST LAST NIGHT, WENT TO A JONES CO JUNIOR COLLEGE BASEKETBALL GAME ( DAUGHTER GOES TO SCHOOL THERE), I WAS TRIED, IT HAD BEEN A TYPICAL MONDAY IN A DR'S CLINIC, I HADNT ATE MUCH DURING THE DAY, SO I WAS HUNGRY AND ALMOST HAD ONE OF THOSE HUNGRY HEADACHES, WELL I GOT POPCORN AT THE BALLGAME AND SOMEONE MUST HAVE SLIPPED AND POURED THE BOX OF SALT ON IT, SO COULDNT EAT THAT, SO BY TIME I LEFT, I THINK MY STOMACK THOUGHT MY THROAT HAD BEEN CUT, HA, SO I STOPPED BY MICKEY D'S,, NOW NORMALLY , I COULD HAVE SCARFFED DOWN A BIG MAC AND LARGE FRIES, BUT I DID THE WWMD THING,, AND GOT A LITTLE BURGER AND LITTLE FRIES, STILL NOT THE BEST THING BUT BETTER, WELL BY TIME I GOT TO MAGEE, I WAS SINKING FAST, AND NEEDED SOMETHING SWEET,, DAIRY QUEEN WAS CALLING MY NAME, BUT I SAID, NOW VICKIE, THATS MY NAME YOU KNOW, HA,, WOULD A MARATHONER STOP BY DQ AT 900 AND GET A SUNDAE, AND I SAID NO, AND WENT HOME. WENT DIRECTLY TO BED, HA,, AND FEEL MUCH BETTER THIS MORNING THAT I DIDNT.

4 miles

i am so proud of my self, i did the whole 4 miles,and didnt really have much trouble, only time i had to run some, was that hill in front of the tennis courts and at the very 1st up to the red light, and i felt so good, if i started to get a little winded i would just slow down to just a comfortable lope, but whew, its 8pm and im dead. might not be able to do this next week with the hills of fondren, but today i did and i felt so good, my daughter was waiting for me in the car and when i came up to the car she said i threw my arms up in the air like i had just finished my marathon, ha,, i had such a good time meeting new folks, esp the other 49'ers that are in the same boat as i am. ha,, what a good group and it will only get better,, tonight when i finally get still, if i dont go immediately asleep i will lay in bed and think of what i want my life to be like at the end of 2007, i can tell you now, my life is good now, and it can only get better, with the help of the GOOD LORD being my running partner, everyday in everyway!, hope you all have a good week,
