2009!!

I am so excited about the new year!! YAY! This Year is going to be SOOOO Hard and I am totally pumped!
I am going to be very active with as many activities on the weekends as I can possibly fit!
For now I will be doing the Danskin Sprint Triathalon, I want to do the great urban adventure race ( I may see if the girl cousins in Dallas want to do that one), possibly the wemons race in Austin with Sharon and maybe muddy buddy in dallas if I can get a friend to do it along side me!....hint hint to the one who reads this! I think I am also going to find some smaller ones to put in as well! I will keep you updated on the progress and set backs!

“Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great." Mark Twain

I love you all!

EM.

I almost frogrot (for all that dont know katieies that is forgot)!! If i meet my paper... I get to train Em next monday!!! hahah I am excited! I only have 7 more togo. AAAAAAAAHHAHAHAHA

EAT IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!

The title is simply for the bennifit of my friend and trainer Em. Again I say EAT IT!!! (in a very demanding voice).
So last night was second time on weight stuff and I love it!!! I just remember saying "Oh that one is hard" I think I ended up saying that about everything. hehe I am a pansy!
I must say I don't hurt to much today but sure tomorrow will SUCK! my batuckus is kinda sore because I had to sit down kind of just tap my buttom to the chair and then stand up quick! I thought those were really hard! we did lots of hard things and I found grunting helps. ughhh grrr ughh grrr (so I don't know how much is effect and how much is help full) I learned this from the guys that were at the gym last night hahaha me and my like maybe 25 lb chest press and them with their like 270/360 bench press... haha . Mount Everest wasn't bad. it was only like maybe mount Olympus last night. thankfully my stomach doesn't hurt as bad as last time...AHHH laughing hurt...and I love to laugh. hahahahahahaha well this is not as entertaining as me falling in sweat... although I did almost fall doing lungy turny things in front of some serious grunting (grrr ugthhh grrr ugthhh) guys.
Well I am going to read some in my new book Facing your giants.
Love Y'all

HOLY SCHNIZA.... all I think I can manage to say is ow ow ow ow ow ow ow owowow!!!

OK so I know I have not blogged in a bit but I am starting back officially! Yay!

This week is almost over THANK GOD! I started personal training with Emily D. (or as I the lazy friend call her Em.) I started my work out all nice and good and then she turned my treadmill into Mount Everest! and increased my speed to a bagillion miles an hour. (I was on my hands and knees trying not to be flung off) OK maybe not on my hands and knees but I went to hold on and she said NO. And I said GRRRRRRRR. (I really do love her she is my friend....so I thought....) We went and did some other things then she decided to make me jump up and down with weights in my hands above my head ...(ha ha any mental pictures that bring bouts of laughter probably are portraying the correct picture ;) he he ) So any way she stands to the side of me and I turn (I did not want her to see my botonkus as I jumped) she moved to the side...we went round and round till we bust out laughing and....well It may have been a had to bee there moment. (I will tell you it was pretty funny!) So we finished up and I was good. Felt like I'd been hit by a VW bug nothing serious though. (This was Tuesday)

Today is Thursday I think I got hit by a Mac ten truck last night somewhere between Turbo kick and waking up this a.m.

On Wednesday I go to Turbo Kick (an amazing Cardio class that I love/hate because it is sent from hell to torture those who are out of shape)

Last night Stephanie pushed and pushed up...at one point we were doing suicides indoors due to the rain and I slipped on the floor in someones sweat!!! (It was hysterical!!! I laughed so hard! but at the same time so nasty) She made us do all sorts of evil things! pretty much 60 min of fast paced hell. But I love it and try at all cost not to miss it!

Back to the Mack Ten Big Truck that hit me....I went to get out of bed and..... AAAAAAAHHHHH I hurt....(yes a good hurt) my legs are killing me and my butt! I cant sit down into a chair I actually kinda just fall into it. But I would like to take this time and remind myself Pain is weakness leaving the body.... oh that saying sucks and I still hurt....no, no. This is me getting stronger and being healthy...

OK so let me also say the Turkey Trot went well. I ended up walking with Mom, Nene and Em. Victoria, Kristina and Karolina (Polish girl ran it). We had such a great day. We also decided to jump into freezing water hahaha what were we thinking. I will post some Pic.s

Well much love to y'all.
