Running Day 122.....One Third Through the Year....Where did that time go?

I cannot believe that we are so far into the year. What is more unbelievable is that I've stuck with this challenge and it's just getting better. I have lost 10 pounds since this time last year. My clothes are starting to fall off and pretty soon I will actually have to start buying a smaller size in shorts and pants. When I look at my numbers it's still not registering. I set my original goal of 700 miles and was truly scared that i wouldn't make it, that I would be running crazy distances at the end to try and make the total. Well at the pace I'm going now I am set to almost make 800 miles!!! I would be just short but I had never had any idea that I could do that. Some days are an absolute struggle and some days it's so wonderful to get out there and just run, to burn off the stress, the crazy, the deadlines, the feelings of failure as a mom somedays, the how am I going to actually get all of this done and why am I running feelings...It's just a matter of putting yourself out there, making the time. It's not easy. But oh is it worth it! Running YTD: 264.30 2015 in 2015 totals with my team: 1070.96 We are going to blow that 2015 number out of the water!!! Happy running, walking and getting off the couch to you all!
