Day 1: Goals

I am going to start this blog off by saying how excited I am to finally be creating a blog about the lifestyle that I am trying to achieve. Working out and eating healthy can be a huge challenge in the beginning and it is something you will have to work hard at EVERYDAY. I am not an expert, but I am a regular girl who has some serious goals! Speaking of goals I would like to list mine off right now! The FIRST, and the most important goal that I have is feeling healthy. I am not going to hover over the scale every hour, or not eat a meal to lose that last pound. To me feeling healthy is going to the gym and sweating my ass off! My SECOND, and most exciting goal is the half marathon race I have coming up on October 13,2013. Of course my goal is to complete the race and do a kick ass job doing it! Finally, my THIRD and last goal is to have balance in my life. I think it is so important to have a good balance between family, friends, school, and work. I feel like I get so caught up in working out that I forget to spend time with the people I love most. I do have to remind myself to take a step back and to enjoy life and not live it in the gym 24/7. 

Every Tuesday I will be writing a blog about my fitness lifestyle. I will share my best/worst moments of the week, workouts,quotes, and recipes. 

Since today is day 1 of my half marathon training schedule I would like to share with you my week schedule for 7/23-7/28. Tuesday-Thursday: 3 miles Saturday: 4 miles and Sunday: 3 miles. This will be an easy week for me as I am used to running 4 miles at least 4 times a week! I will be running my 3 miles at the gym today with more cardio workouts and some weight lifting. 

I will be posting pictures daily to my Instagram, and you can find me at Ashley_Davis06. If you have any questions please leave a comment below. Thanks again to everyone who supports me! 

P.S. To start this blog off with some motivation a friend of mine has sent me a link to a great motivational video that I would love to share.
