Distractions……

Distractions……

Random thoughts from today’s 6 mile run — all attempts to distract my mind.

1) Rearview mirrors.  Use them!  If you run me down in YOUR OWN driveway, you will go to prison.  I’m on the sidewalk for god’s sake!

2) When I write my book someday, maybe I will call it  “From 277.2 to 26.2, and every baby step in between“.   I’ve spent my life where my weight has defined me.  It’s nice to be fixated on a number that has nothing to do with how big my @ss is!

3) 53 degrees in December is w.e.i.r.d.  but since I have 5 more weeks of running to do — I’ll embrace weird.  I’m NOT complaining.

and lastly

4) Yes, you did it again Girl.  6 miles.  Strong and proud.   It’s not a trick.  It’s Real.  Y.o.u. are Real.  It’s all about B.E.L.I.E.F. from here.

Ciao for now….Diane

About Diane

Ciao! My name is Diane. I'm a wife, a mom, a working professional, and a Weight Watcher from New Jersey. I started blogging in 2011, at 45 years old, when I was training for my first Half Marathon at Rutgers on April 22, 2012. Since then, I've lost 80 pounds, completed my Half Marathon goal and gone on to train for and run my very first Full Marathon. On Jan 13, 2013, I ran the Disney Marathon in Orlando, Fl! What an incredible day. As the saying goes -- "The person who starts the race is not the same person who finishes the race." I am forever changed! So now we move on to the next phase of this journey! Come along. We're in this together!! Ciao for now!
