Norpoint Turket trot 5K Tacoma WA

 It has been about 10-11 years since I did this run let along doing any running LOL. I am so happy to report that I completed the 5K in 44:10. I have been doing training on a treadmill at the planet fitness near my home where I work out at.

My weight is at 166 and going down little by little as I continue getting shape. My next 5K will be Dec 14 the Santa reindeer run in Orting WA. I am back becoming a runner and I am feeling really happy

Nov 2024

 Feeling pretty excited! My weight coming down nicely at 173 and less then 30 days out to a 5k turkey trot on Thanksgiving Day! Been over 11 yrs since I did a 5k.

It's coming back

 I've been getting to the gym on a regular bases.

Jogging is coming back on the treadmill. Yesterday I enjoyed riding my older mountain bike it was great weather.

The little things I'm noticing about my weight coming off is going up and down stairs is easier.

If I'm sitting on the floor or have to get on my hands and knees to do something much easier to get up.  I take these all as wins!

Summer 2024

 It's been a great summer! My weight at 190 and I'm feeling great! I'm back to the gym and goal is to run a 5k come Thanksgiving!  The old me is starting to come back! I will run again!

Turning 58

 I am just a few days into being 58. Time to start the journey again. I have been out of shape for many years now and I am starting the journey back to being healthy and will run again. My weight today is 208 not to bad considering I havebeen as high as 215. First goal is to get to under 200 lbs and I know I will do that. I am eating better and tracking my food and exercise.  If all goes like I am hoping I will be back into decent shape by the time I turn 60.  Come along for this journey of mine

Life happening

2014 a brand new year

Yikes it is pretty scary to look back on when I last posted here on my blog.  I am going to be 48 this coming year and before I know it 50 will be knocking at my door.  I am going to do my best this new year to get my health back meaning get my weight back down and become the runner that I used to be back in my early 40's when I was living in Colo. I am still in WA state and this coming summer I will marry the love of my life Jerry Nordbye.  I have also recently got back in contact with one of my best running and triathlon pal Becky Marzano her and I did lots of events back in my running days.
we have committed to helping each other out this year by keeping in touch about or goals and what we are doing to get back our health. so here I am again blogging and will try and keep things more updated here for my friends that would still like to follow my blog.

My commitment so far for this new year is to get on the treadmill each date at work on my lunch for 45 min that is a good start for me. Once again a new journey for me to get back in shape and I hope you will encourage me and follow me along.  HAPPY 2014 everyone!
