A mom of two who works from home, so I definitely must get off my butt more to keep my metabolism higher and fit back in my size 10/58kg body mass. I love pies, and chocolate...I am also a Social Media Manager and Pinterest Expert and account manager, so I can and do help small business owners use pinterest fro more brand visibility and increased customer base. I am a Speaker. Coach. Author. Entrepreneur.

Right now its working. I am fitter, more nimble and run 5km in 30 mins...I am looking for that next challenge...and to loose those spare tires for sure :) I celebrate the completion of the 9 weeks run. I didnt think I could, now to the next challenge....

Well done you...now you need lots of consolidation on those 30 minute runs... our running legs need time to grow as one of our most awesome runners on here will tell you!

The 30 minute runs, short runs, long runs and then, maybe check out the C25K+ podcasts they are great for the disciplines within our running !
