I started this blog as a place to document my journey as I go from live-in-girlfriend to wife and maintaining a healthy living lifestyle with a busy schedule. I want to feel and look my best on my wedding day but I don't want to deprive myself to get there. Our wedding is taking place in a beautiful Caribbean destination in just a couple months so I am working hard to stay fit until then.
Growing up I was always pretty active. I ice skated, did tried gymnastics, took dance, horseback rode, played JV basketball, was part of cross country in middle school, played A LOT of field hockey, and was a long distance cyclist. Probably one of my biggest accomplishments in my life to date (fitness wise) is all the cycling I did. I not only went on week long trips all over NY, Canada, and New England, but I also biked 2600 miles in 7 weeks from Glenwood Springs, Colorado back to my hometown of Massachusetts. Don't worry, I wasn't alone.
(that's me on the left - biking through the rockies!)
Since working in the real world, I have been trying to stay active in the gym as much as possible. But that fell to the wayside when we adopted our crazy mutt a couple years ago, and my priority became making sure she got in her daily walks. When the FH(future husband) and I got engaged in December, I added fitness back into my life, and have since made maintaining a healthy lifestyle a priority through running, weight training, classes at the gym, and eating clean as much as I can.
I recently completed 12 weeks of training and ran my first half marathon in 1:48:38! I fell in love with running through the process and plan to add more half marathon's, 10Ks and other races to my calendar in 2013.
