So this is my first blog. I've avoided joining the blogging universe to this point, but desperate times-- call for desperate measures...
I am desperate. I am probably the most unmotivated bride on the planet. My wedding is in a mere 101 days. 101!!! And yet, I still find myself evading the gym, eating junk and simply pretending like I still have a ton of time to magically drop 20 pounds.
I have dreams of looking amazing in my wedding dress-- and looking even better in a brand new bikini on a beautiful beach in Aruba. But then I wake up, and reality sets in. My arms are flabby, my butt is big and my thighs are scary.
Yet, up until now, I've done absolutely nothing about it. Well... I say nothing... because I've seen zero results. Of course, I only have myself to blame. Sure I've tried a few diets, gone to the gym sporadically... but I haven't gotten serious about this whole exercise thing.
So... that brings me to this blog... and this amazingly ambitious goal I've now set for myself. The weekend before my nuptials I will run a HALF-MARATHON. There, it's in writing. No backing out now!
Running the race is really my secondary goal. I am hoping all the training I need to commit to will whip me into shape and transform my body in just 101 days. I am not expecting a miracle, but I am hoping for some positive results. A tighter ass, a flatter tummy, leaner legs.
I am not a runner. I don't enjoy exercise in general. I would much rather take my dog for a walk or curl up with a good book. But it's time to realize that if I don't want to be a whale, I have to work at it. Hopefully, this training plan and all of you will help keep me focused and motivated.
And then when I walk down the aisle... certain places won't be quite so jiggly!

You are already gorgeous - and no matter what, you'll be a gorgeous bride. I'm glad, though, that were both committing to this. Last year's run was awesome - and I was glad that we did it together. Being able to cross that finish line this year (no matter how long it takes us) will be an incredible accomplishment that you can be proud of as you walk down the aisle.
