    Great job, Amy! You've had a wonderful year!!!!!

    I ran my first half marathon & full marathon

    I took up strength training & am seeing awesome results

    I checked my garmin connect & I've ran 678 miles, there was some non-logged treadmill runs but not sure that amount

    I am a size 4 now too, never was a size 4. I was a size 8 in HS, 12-16 after having my children & this year has been the best year as far as weight loss & full body & mind transformation!!

    Let's keep it up! I love seeing your activities, Amy & you motivate me to push on :)

    Y'all are my sheroes!

    I took up running after a 17-month, baby-induced hiatus and ran two halfs, but haven't lost much weight.

    Hope to start 2013 off with weight training and setting a goal of 1,000 miles run for the year. Have three halfs and a local Army Ten Miler scheduled through May and hope to run a full in November (I had one planned for March, but had to slide my training schedule a few months). I've already joined the Planet Fitness that's coming to town in February; it's within 5 minutes of home so I have no excuses. Also going to really work on getting my eating under control -- that's my biggest struggle.

    Wow! Awesome accomplishments all around.


    Mine was a pretty good year.

    Competed in my first figure competition (didn't place or anything)

    Killed my half marathon PR (winter HM)

    Took almost 9 minutes off my last year's time for my favorite triathlon (the bike is a little long so it wasn't my PR)

    PR'd in another triathlon - also won my age group (ok it was a really really small race but I was happy)

    Set a 5k PR of under 25 minutes.

    Basicay my running improved hugely. My goal is to improve on swimming this year. Also training for my first marathon. I plan on this list being the same next year.

    Y' all did so great this year!!

    I did 26 races including halfs, muds, and 5ks to 16 mile trail runs. Whew! I'm exhausted! lol
    Re-shaped my body with bootcamp.
    Built strength and muscle but didn't lose a whole lot of weight. Most of my loss was from 2011.

    All in all it was a pretty good year!!!
