Nobody cares if you're not a good dancer. Just get up and dance. The same holds true for racing. Whether first or last, we all cross that same finish line. Just get out there and run.

Sometimes Videos Are Stupid

I just saw a video on Facebook of the half time performance. Let me just say that it sort of crushed the whole mental image that I had of the thing, because of course in my head I was so much better. The kicker is that because of my size, I sort of stuck out and didn't blend in like a lot of the other participants did. Oh well, going to have to shake it off and move on. Ultimately, I went and I did the darn thing. I felt fine about the whole thing until I saw the video, so I need to try and go back to the place before I saw the video.

This weekend consisted of a whole lot of Zumba. I went to class on Saturday morning, and then did the Zumba thing yesterday as well. Other then that there was no other gym related stuff over the weekend.

Then this morning, my trainer and I had to reschedule because she and her little one were not feeling well. This actually turned out to my advantage because my friend and I were able to go on a long walk this morning. The heat was awful, but according to the runstar app we were able to do 5.6 miles with a pace of 19:26 minutes per mile. I think that the next walk we will break the 6 mile mark. Go us! This evening I am going back to the gym for round 2 and hit up Zumba class.

While I'm at it, let's revisit some of my short term goals that I mentioned in this post.

  • I bought the Zumba pants but they still don't fit. That's ok though because we are getting there, and I think that maybe by the end of next month I will be able to wear them. 
  • Zumba training is on Thursday, and I think that I am in better shape then I was when I set the goal in June.
  • The wedding is coming up in a while, and I have lost some more weight. I have seen some outfits that I like for the occasion. The next step is trekking up to the store to start trying things on.
  • We are getting really close to the September goal which is being down a total of 150 pounds. We are 16 pounds away.... this is totally attainable.

I'm going to try this comment thing again since mine was deleted and also try to remember what I said the first time.

I am so proud FOR you. (Saying I'm proud of you could make me seem much older that you and of course I wouldn't want to go there). Seriously though, I can't wait to get into the gym with you even though I'm worried you're going to kick my butt. I'm happy I knew the old Lucy so I can be here to celebrate all your success with you now.
