Gearing up for my first race of the year

Crossing the finish line at my first race, April 2013

Spring will soon be here (oh man, I sure hope so because this winter has been brutal) because it is time to sign up for my favourite local race.  The race is in April, and it's my fave because it was the first one I ran, and it was on the first anniversary of my mom's passing - I ran it in memory of her.    I honestly thought I'd run the race and that would be it, well, I was warned by others that I would be hooked and I am!  I ran a few others last year, but I must say there is nothing like your first love - lol.  

So, today I signed my youngest daughter and myself up for the race.  It's official, we are going, and I plan on smashing my time from last year, so I had better get training!!

Speaking of training, I won a free month of online training from Kelly's Fit Lifestyle and after a full week, I have DOMS everywhere and I have lost over 6lbs :)  Yay!    She is pushing me to do exercises that are good for me, but if left to myself, I probably wouldn't do. After my first week check-in, she changed my macros and I am all set for another week.  I'll keep you all updated! 

Love lifting <3

Meet My Online Personal Trainer

I've been telling you about how I won a free month of online training, from bodybuilder, Karen Nolan-Evans .  I am almost finished my first week following her training plan and diet, and I am loving it!
Now I am going to introduce you to her :)
Karen is a bodybuilder that knows what she is talking about. .  In the past two years she has transformed her own body and has gone from no muscle to totally ripped!!  (I know that I will never look as good as Karen, but if anyone can get me in better shape, she can.)

Karen has just won Miss Physique at the BNBF Welsh Championships, and is back training hard to be ready to step on stage in September for the British Nationals.  She has a strong work ethic and I know she will be working hard to be her best for the next competition!
If you'd like to follow her competition prep, and see pictures from her competitions, follow her fan page on Facebook, Karen Nolan-Evans Bodybuilder.  She even has some astonishing "before and after" pictures of herself that you will have to see to believe.
