I'm always looking for Spark Buddies who can motivate me (or who want to be motivated themselves)! Don't be shy to ask me questions or add me as a friend!
My Goals:
+ Slowly and steadily get back to my fitness level in 2010 + Decrease body fat and increase strength/tone + Finish a 5K in under 30 minutes *DONE!* + Run a 10k in 2010 *DONE!* + Run a half marathon *DONE on 5/1/2011!* + Never, ever go back to a size 12 (or 10, or 8...) + Continue to 'spread the Spark' to anyone and everyone!
My Program:
+ Portion control + Using the food/fitness trackers + Cardio 4x/week + Strength training 5x/week + Take one or two days off to rest every week + Find something to love about myself every day
Personal Information:
I'm an engineer, a knitter, a baker, a comic book reader, and a movie buff. I've been on SP on-and-off since 2006, and it's been an incredible journey!
Other Information:
+ 5'6" + Manga, anime, comic book dork + Lover of Apple and Android OS's and products + Eclectic and downright strange at times + Huge f*cking potty mouth + Baker, cook, and knitter galore + Brutally honest yet sincere + Head-over-heels in love since 11/7/2003
Thanks so much for your comments on my blog! I'll have to look for that equalizer, I still really struggle with my triceps and I have a feeling it would be a great tool!! Thanks for the advice!!
