Tonight I'm chatting with her as I'm taking my constitutional around the block a few times. I like to walk on Sundays for about an hour or so.
So Sandy asks me if I want to run the marathon with her and this is what pops in to my head. I would look like this... picture my head on Homer's body.
Are you kidding me. I can't bike 26 miles let alone run 26 miles. And Sandy assures me that I could walk it. I'm thinking It would take me all day to do that. Then as she's talking she making a plan for me and if I could walk a 14 min. mile, it would be possible for me to do the marathon in 8 hours or so.
Then we start talking about the Biggest Loser... my favorite show ever!
And how I need a personal trainer like Jillian. She's so cool. I think she used to be military and is tuff and hard but boy howdy does she get results. She's so cool. I'd love to look like her but I don't really have the dedication or the drive or the genes or will power or the someone behind me to kick me in the hinney when I need it. So Sandy says that she'll be my trainer and help me get in shape for the marathon.
I'm starting tomorrow. I am so super excited to start.
My homework is to walk 3 miles and time how long it takes me. We all have a starting point. I am so happy that I have a marine working and fighting for me to win my war of the battle of the bulge!
So soon... I will never look just like Jillian... but I will be closer. And I could start doing marathons.

I a 100% behind you and your biggest cheer leader!! Keep me posted and remember, I love being on the other end of the line when you walk hint, hint grin. Also, love the pictures and cute dialouge.
Wow! Count me in!
Good luck. It would be worth it, wouldn't it--of course after it is all done.
You are awesome! You will do it! What a great goal, and how lucky you are to have your sister for support. Keep us posted on your training!
