My sister said I should start a blog so here I am. I am a 39 year old mom of three marvelous children. I was freed of my job last year and joined the ranks of the unemployed. I moved from a corporate job to a calmer life. I am enjoying my kids, spending more time in their schools and at their activities. Making more home cooked meals and even baking. And I also started spending more time at the gym. Then I started running. I ran some 5 and 10Ks, I ran a half marathon and in May, I ran my first marathon. It occured to me that I would enjoy a new career in fitness and to that end, I have acquired some materials to study for American Council on Exercise (ACE) exam. One day, I will crack open these books and actually study and pass this exam. In the meantime, when friends and family ask me for fitness or nutrition advise, I answer based on my experiences with the caveat that I am no pro. I am just a girl enjoying a new path in my life’s journey with a few simple goals: have fun, try new things and keep running.
