Haven't run since last Sat. Cataract surgery went great. Don't even need my glasses now. I have a 5K tomorrow morning; Uplifting Ministries 5K in Jackson, MS. This will be my first race since the half in December. I am looking forward to it. I wish I could get my husband interested but haven't been able to so far. Two friends and I are going and one of them is running too. I am sure she will blow past me like a north wind but that's okay too. I am seriously trying to lose some more weight so I can get better with my speed. The Galloway Training School that I participated in last year when I first started running is coming up soon. I have several friends that are going to the informational meeting to see if they would like to participate. I want to be an encouragement to others who have throught of running and/or walking but did not feel like they could do it. The Galloway program makes it so easy! I probably would have given up if I had not been able to take the walk breaks. Eventually I want to run without them but right now I am very grateful for them!
I will post my race report asap. Don't get too excited because it will not be anything too spectacular but at least I am up and moving. Progress NOT perfection is my motto.
Have a great weekend friends!
LOSING IT - WEIGHT THAT IS!!

I would love to have you join me on my adventure!
