Fitness Role Model

March 18, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

EEEKKKK! I am so excited! The latest issue of Fit Magazine, New Orleans’ monthly fitness magazine, is out, and guess who is on the cover? MMMMMEEEEE! I am so excited! Not only am I on the cover, but there is a story about me on the inside, being a fitness role model. woo hoo! I was kind of bummed they didn’t put my blog address in there, but hopefully people will still be able to find my blog from it. I am getting my hands on a copy soon and will post pictures tomorrow, I can’t wait for you to see it!

If you will remember, I did the photo shoot back at the beginning of February. It was SO COLD, about 34 degrees, and on the lakefront. My hands went numb, and I had to run, a lot for the pictures! It’s been a long wait, and I wasn’t SURE if I was going to be on the cover or not.

Today I am going to take it easy because I have a race tomorrow! Bobby and I are running a 5k, our first in our new town. I am  a little nervous because 1.) I have no idea where it is, and 2.) it doesn’t start till 9:30 and the high tomorrow is 78 and sunny! It’s going to be QUITE warm which I am not used to. I really really want to PR and hope the warm temps don’t mess that up for me!

I also have a baby shower to go to tomorrow for my cousin’s fiancé. It’s a bridal tea! How fun! I will be sure to take pictures of me in my tea hat.

So, did you enter my giveaway yet? Check it out! You have until Monday night to enter.

    My worst race day experience…. oh wow. Probably my first ever race (a half marathon) and I had to go #2 the entire race and there were no bathrooms… it was horrible.

    Congrats about the magazine! That’s awesome!

    My worst race experience – racing with a bad head cold in hot weather. It was a 5K and I got through the first 2 miles fine and then I felt like I was going to be sick so I had to walk the last 1.1 miles until I got to the finish line and threw up everywhere. I will never run when feel even slightly unwell again.

    Congratulations on the article and cover! How exciting, and you look great!

    My worst race-day was the Santa Saunter 5k ~ TOO cold and my stupid santa beard kept choking me. Funny though, in retrospect.

    My worst race day and my best race day are the same (odd?). I had a PDR but am still in a lot of foot pain (it was last Saturday).

    My worst race experience was when I did the Nashville Country Music marathon 2 yrs ago. I didn’t train enough. I’ve neverbeen so miserable. However, the worst part of all was trying to find my dad after feeling like I was dying. It took me 1.5 hrs!! I was crying cause all I wanted to do was relax. But I was proud I finished. I am running my second one next Sunday and I’m prepared. Congrats on the mag. That is soooo awesome. I will have to go buy it Sat! You def are beautiful and talented.:)
