Our lives are inspired by the dreams we have from the earliest stages of our youth. When you combine passion and hard work, then success is always possible. While no road is every straight, dedication and persistence will always lead you to your dreams.

This is why I blog...
I had a lazy, super lazy weekend. I did nothing. Okay, I ran for 30 minutes on Saturday but after that, the most strenuous thing I did was jump up off the couch and yell at the television when that receiver CAUGHT the ball AFTER Manning was supposed to go down in a QB sack...pretty bad, I know. (But seriously, look up the highlight as the athletism and WILL of that player is truly incredible!!) So this morning I am reading my fave blogs, you know who you are cause I comment on your efforts...and I don't want to be lazy anymore!! AND I got a phone call (a PHONE CALL...not an e-mail, not a text message) from a tri-friend wondering where I was at swimming on Sunday. Good thing I have some people looking out for me as there is no way I could do this all by myself. A big fat OOPS. But I am now ready to get back at it again. So a run tomorrow for an hour, swim on Wed morning, bike ride Wed night, bike maintenance course Thurs night...and that is all I have looked at so far. And what does a girl do when she is feeling like she needs some motivation? That's right, she goes SHOPPING!! New goggles, new bathing suit, new running bras, new socks and a new neck warmer. Here we go...
