I need help. I seem to have lost my running mojo. When I was training for the Run for God 5K with the group, I didn’t have any problems getting up and out. Now that I’m on my own, I can’t seem to stay motivated. My running has gotten sloppy […]

Yesterday was my last day running with my 5K training group. sadness I’ve probably worked harder at running and being fit in the last 8 weeks than I have in goodness knows how long. Y’all I did some serious sweating! Don’t believe me check out my pictures on Instagram. Also […]
