“be like all of you guys”?
My dear…...WHAT?!?!?!<br /><br />“be like all of you guys”? <br /><br />My dear…You and ‘you guys’ are one-and-the-same. As far as I’m concerned, every time that you confront a challenge face-to-face (in sport or in life) you are an inspiration to me. And every time you set a goal (to quit smoking or to run that first ½ I) and you set off on the difficult path to realize that goal, you jump ahead of millions and millions of folks who never take the first step.<br /><br />You are one tough cookie to stick with your non-smoking decision, and I for one am proud of you for that.<br /><br />Also, you’re right…Matty-O WOULD come back here and smack you! He’s been looking for an excuse to come back to the Great White North to get arrested.<br /><br />P.S. I can’t wait to see that photo.

The picture was of Bryan and my coach. I haven't had a picture of me taken in about 10 years (since I gained the weight). I'm toying with throwing caution to the wind and just posting a pic but I'm still chickon. <br /><br />The smoking is a struggle everyday but everyday I want to be like all of you guys more than I want to smoke. Also if I were to smoke I think Matty might actually come back here and smack me... yikes!<br /><br />For now the goal is to have my photo taken as I cross the finish line at my 1/2IM in July.adenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10262821333252088168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7111010682267468096.post-89654759314894332702010-11-30T11:56:55.986-05:002010-11-30T11:56:55.986-05:0040 because the rest of the blog world hasn’t yet u...40 because the rest of the blog world hasn’t yet uncovered this hidden gem. Congrats on both of your successes last year. Mostly on the smoking. Not taking away from your tri…but we endureance athletes are familiar with human potential and I knew you could do a tri before I even knew YOU. But smoking is a tough one. I’ve never smoked…but know many people who either struggle trying to quit or spend their days convincing themselves that it’s okay.<br /><br />Good luck on the cleanse…but I’m confused about the 30-40 pounds? I just peeked at your November 14th pic and unless I have you and Bryan confused …you look amazing. <br /><br />You rock.<br /><br />(Ha...EMZ and her 4's.

I once paid $2000 to go to a fasting resort where they fed you water and gave enema's every day.
