I felt like a little girl again, getting muddy and crawling through the dirt. Getting splinters and not worrying about whether I'd look stupid.

I'm excited for you. Let me know how you do, ok?

This is my first one. I'm super excited!!! :) I started this healthy lifestyle mid-April of last year. When I started I would get very tired after less than an hour of walking. My back would be killing me, my feet would be swollen, and I would be out of breath. Like you mentioned earlier, I made many excuses for why I couldn't lose the weight...they were just that...EXCUSES. I've got my bestfriend, her wife, my cousin, and a detective friend of mine doing the race w/ me. I'm getting even more excited hearing you talk about it. I loooooooooove getting dirty!!! I'll let you know how it goes. ;)
