The Setting: It was the Spring of 2010. The two of us had begun taking casual walks around our neighborhood when we got home from work. Did we mention we live on the same street? We know, it's awesome. The walks started as a way to catch up on each other's lives (and to get Lori's dog Rollie some exercise) and quickly fed our desire to be fit. We weren't just satisfied with "being able to button your pants without crying" fit. No... we wanted to be really fit. We dreamt of a day when we could run a 5k comfortably, and without being chased. We were determined to make that dream a reality. So much so, that we quickly set a date to run our first 5k together. The date was June 5th...just a few weeks away. And if that wasn't crazy enough, we also signed up for The Girlfriend Bike Ride set for June 19th. We were committed and we had a plan! Things always go according to plan, right?
Anyway, the tales of those races are for another day. This first story, as told by Lori, takes place a few weeks after our inital declaration of fitness.
Coming soon....
About Us
- About Us
- This blog is the brainchild of Lori and Kelly, penny-pinching twenty-somethings and decade-long friends who, in the pursuit of fitness, have embarked upon an exhausting and self-deprecatingly unforgettable journey. These are true stories, meant to show the great lengths two girls will go through to get fit - on a budget. Some names have been changed to protect the innocent (and the not-so-innocent.)
