About Me:: I am a stay at home mom of two great kids, my daughter is 4 and my son is 2.5 years old. We recently moved from the west coast to the midwest.

I love to run and have completed 2 marathons. My favorite thing to do is stamp. I make cards and all sorts of paper crafty items.

My goal is to be in the best shape I can this year. I need to lose about 25 pounds and it is hard!

I weighed in Thursday and gained 2 pounds! Not sure why it was so much but I'm really focusing on the veggies this week. I hope I get better results next week.

Runmom - training for a full marathon is a huge commitment! It is a blast but you have to get the miles in. When you are ready, go for it.

I live in Ohio so when the weather is rough (which is most of the time :-( ) I'm indoors on a treadmill. I have a quick question for you. Do you have any tips on how to keep yourself at a steady pace while running outside?
