Today I feel like a champion



Is that Becca, the marathon mama, gracing the front of a Wheaties box?
Oh yes, yes it is.  
(There are definite perks to having your husband work for a cereal company ; )

 Today Teya said, "Wow mom, I can't believe you're on that box."
Breakfast of champions baby, and today I feel like a champ : )
Why you ask?




This is why. Here is my work out Calendar for June.  It shows that for the first time EVER in my life, I worked out every single day (except Sundays) for an entire month.  It was hard and inconvenient and a challenge to find the time.  There were many days I had dig deep for the will power to get it done. But I made a commitment that I was going to do it and I did. That's what champions do right? So I'm riding a little high right now and wanted to share it with the world (or at least the small population of the world that reads this blog ; ) I may not be in marathon shape or even all the way back to my pre-baby weight, but my clothes are fitting better, I have tons of energy, and my kids think their mom is the star of the Wheaties box. Gotta feel pretty good about that ; )

I love the Wheaties box! So cool :) Also, great idea to put your workouts onto a calendar. A nice fitness report card at the end of the month. You get an A+ :)

Wow Becca! You are amazing! I always said us Brown girls are made of strong stuff. I guess that includes the Uda Girls too since the Brown blood runs through their veins.
Loves and Hugs!

You are so amazing! I think that is the coolest ever to have your own Wheaties box. I need to start tracking my days again....I also need your running advice for a half marathon in October!!

That really does take serious willpower. I'm so happy for you Becca! I bet you feel awesome! Since we found out about the move I have worked out exactly zero times and I feel like jell-o! Time to get back on the saddle--you inspire me!

Dude, not only is it cool that you made it to a Wheaties box, but VERY cool that you worked out o hard and are one dedicated momma! I gave myself 3 weeks--which means it's game time for me starting tomorrow. I am ready to start the LONG road back to pre-pregnancy health and weight and you have certainly encouraged me! Especially seeing that you ran a 10k recently. You rock! And you look fabulous!
