Hey Linda!  Love the pix!  you look great!

i have an OT question......what do you eat (if anything) before you run?  i did a 5k last saturday and really, really struggled!  it's like i was totally out of gas!  do you eat anything special before you run?

thanks bunches!

Thanks Jenni,
I usually just have a water w/ crystal lite in it before I start out and drink some of it.  I believe you should probably eat something, but I'm afraid it would make me sick.  I know after you get through you should have some protein or something like a banana. 

Diana(Mythintime) or someone on the daily fitness thread would be the person to asked this question to.  Several of them run a lot.  I mostly walk/jog so mine is not as hard on my knees. 

Congratualtions on doing the 5K.  The last one I did, I was exhausted when I got through and I had a water and a banana and then felt a little better.

Wow you guys are amazing!
 Very inspiring!!
Maybe when my son wakes up I will have to find a pic and have a pic taken!

Thanks, I can't wait to see yours.  I have to get DH to take mine and he cuts my head off and it takes us forever!!  Yesterday morning he said "I thought we were through taking pictures!!"
I have enjoyed watching your journey.  You have done such a great job.
