Exciting Stuff going on!!!!

WOW oh WOW! This is the longest break yet from blogger! So so much going on in this crazy life of mine! It's all good stuff, thank you Jesus! but it feels like my life is in a blender! It's making a delicious smoothy, but it's still in a blender and I'm trying to balance it all out. I will be on here a lot less this summer because my kids are out of school and I try to spend that special time with them that I will never get back.

I am keeping up great on my workouts! I'm on week 7 now of Jamie Easons program and boy oh boy are these results AWESOME so far!!!!!!

SO I have some exciting news!  (some I can't share with you just yet) but I can share on this......I am teaming up with my best fitness friend and we started a support website to help all the women who need the support the extra push and just someone to be there in their fitness journey. We are still working on the website and we just started the blog where we are going to post all our fitness advise, tips and tricks! You can check out our website what we have built so far and it has a link to the blog and check out our mission and about us section. www.flexitpink.com

You can also check out our face book www.facebook.com/flexitpink I am still going to post here and I am still Elisha Run Run Run I just have even more great stuff out there for all the women I care about. I love pink (you)!!!!!

 

I am going to make a goal to post more now that the summer schools out madness has calmed down a bit but we will be posting in our FIP blog since there is two of us it will be easier to share the posts :) Gosh I miss the blog world! I'm also going to try to catch up on all the blog posts this coming week as well. I need to see how all my girls are doing!!!!

 

See I'm still running! Got in a good one yesterday with my faithful running partner.......

 

I truly hope y'all are doing FITtastic! It is so hard in the summer to stay on track but just remember all the work you put in this winter to get to this point! and remember starting over sucks! Stay strong, stay motivated, and keep active! Keep eating clean, and enjoy the beautiful weather this summer!!!!

San Diego Rock N' Roll Half Marathon

HAAPPPPYYYYYYY MONDAY!!!! and what a happy Monday it is indeed! I think I'm still on a runners HIGH! This Rock N' Roll marathon was one for the books for sure! First off I did the unexpected and PR'd! Official time 1:58.26!!!

I CANNOT believe that I PR'd I had not been training like I should have and my pace has been a little slower than usual. I ran this one with a few amazing women that I know and they all did amazing!!! However, I literally *ran* with one of my girlfriends by my side the entire time and it was AMAZING!!! I don't think I could have PR'd if I wasn't running with her the entire time. We crossed the finish line holding hands like we planned and I can't explain the excitement that finish was! We sprinted the last .10 miles which I can't even believe I had the energy for but it was awesome!!! We pushed each other in times we needed, but surprisingly the whole thing went by so fast and easy. Maybe it was because there were 30,000 runners at this race and the entire time we were weaving in and out of a ton of people. We also ran through residential neighborhoods almost the whole way, which was so cool because the whole course people were cheering you on with awesome cleaver signs and costumes and handing out goodies the whole way, even beer at times ha! It was so much fun it went by so fast and it was the best experience ever, and it would not have been the same without my friend Anna who I ran with!

 

There were a few steep hills in the course but that didn't even matter because there seemed to be even more downhills and we made up time for sure on those. We ran as fast as wee could down those hills. They also passed out Gu shots which I think also helped me get through the whole thing with a breeze. My first half I didn't take anything or drink anything and I think that maybe why it was so much harder for me on my first half?! Or just having an awesome girlfriend right by your side is what you need to get you through with a breeze.

All I have to say is I thought I would be done with half's for a while but that just inspired me to keep going! We are thinking of which one to run next!!! I felt so good on that course we talked about just running the whole marathon (just jokingly), but we could have kept running a while longer for sure!

Don't give up on your dreams and goals girls! My plan going into this race was to just run it with no expectations, but the stubborn part of my brain always knew I was going to try and PR. As soon as I crossed the start line I knew I was going to push for that goal! If you believe you can achieve! You only have to believe in yourself!

I'll leave y'all with some snap shots from the race, right now I'm back to relaxing on this well deserved Monday off from the gym :)

Happy Monday

XOXO

Elisha
