Should have done the workout this morning. Rest day today because it's late and my children are sleep and I just finished cleaning the house and I want to take a bath and go to bed. I realized today what I've been CONSTANTLY told. This is NOT a sprint. Therefore, me doing certain things--such as double workouts in a day, extra reps in lifting---is not going to get me smaller next week or the week after that. Bottom line I know longer want to be rigorous. Some days I'll work out and some I won't. No big deal anymore. GN!3

Thanks Trinity. I am going to feel them tomorrow, especially those darn planks AND burpees. But that's the price you pay to take days off and play at Disneyland. Great job on your weight loss last week.

@trinitymwilson @dbackgrammy @hannahhooter we can definitely make a plan to extend beyond June. My target for hitting my goal weight isn't until the fall & I'll be in marathon training soon, so I'm all about continuing this great support

Having done quite a few half marathons and one full; plus Sherpa duty during Ironman training sessions for my kids, please know I'm here to support you as you do your marathon training. Have you done one before or is this your first? Maybe incorporate a mini challenge that will help all of us support you along the way. Good luck on your training.0 -
