Just entering my morning weight... I am only 4 lbs away from my target weight.

Will run this afternoon after work. Getting excited about the race Sunday, it's so nice to see my co-workers exercising and having fun! Happy Friday!

Four miles around rock creek park - got out of the park on Mass. ave, which i never do, and ran into my colleague Allison, who was out running too, preparing for our race Sunday! What a great coincidence!

Weight: 132.00

This your 5k that your waiting to do? Are you going to be able to push it harder this weekend?? Or going to keep it easy?

I'm doing an 8k this weekend, going to try to push as hard as I can... I've done the same race three times before, and my best time was 39:40, so I'm aiming to beat that...

Ehem... where are the wedding pics?

No Rocket! You're only 8 lbs away from being an Athena.

Hmm she has some on her facebook. Not that I know how to get on there and look at them. I did help pick some cute ones out. I havent figured out how to post them on the blog yet.

...or 32 quarter pounders. What is so good about 128? You already fit in your skinny jeans!

Be careful at your race... but have a good time. I'm sure you will run great!

Lucia, don't push it too hard. Remember I have mine in 8 days...

Good luck on the race and congrats on the weight. You are almost there!

That Athena ordeal was hard to believe... I mean that they'd have a category based on weight??? And that it's at 140 lbs? It's insane!

Monte, one thing is to fit in the pants and another is to be able to wear them outside the house... biiiiig difference! I'll get there though.

Eric, I already printed a photo of you to have it in my pocket and look at it mid-race to make me go faster! Thank you for the support everyone! I need more good vibes from you on Monday afternoon for my final exam than for tomorrow's race... unfortunately... I'm counting on you!
