I don’t know where this is going…. March 6, 2010

Earlier today I was ready to end this blog. The original title was “An End”. But now I’m not so sure. I had detached myself from this community to quiet some voices and find my track. As you can see below this, this is what I originally wrote.
“I think I’m done with this blog. Maybe I’ll come back to provide updates about where I’m at but anyone can ask me at ehrenh@gmail.com. The last month or so there has been no motivation to use this forum anymore. I’m not reading other weight loss blogs and my interest in the Biggest Loser has wained. I think it’s because I don’t see myself as someone who is trying to lose weight, I’m someone who is trying to be healthy and more physically in shape. Running is my motivation. More so, the 1/2 marathon in May. I have a schedule set up all the way up to the race and love improving my times. Eating right is really important for that so it’s got me really focused. And I’m not alone. A cousin I grew up with has just gotten back in touch with me for the last two months and we’re working together (although we live 3 hours apart) towards the same race in May as well as a triathlon at the end of June. She’s great for keeping me challenged and we’re talking daily on progress and struggles. It’s great to have that accountability at the ready.”
But now seeing what Steve and Rob have been going through, I’m not ready to say this is the end. I’m comfortable with the support system I have around me know and it is actually family that is that support. But maybe I need to support others. I know not many read this and that’s fine. Maybe I’ll just go back to what it was originally intended for. Just a place to write down my thoughts.
Good day.
I’m glad you’re focusing on what you need to focus on. I’m also really glad that you’re keeping this up, if for nothing else, than to provide yourself with a place to write down your thoughts…
I’m excited to hear about your 1/2 marathon in May. That’s intense!
I’m on a much slower timeline than you. And I know you’ll do really well!
I am so glad to see you post again. Thanks for not quitting the blog. That was my intent many months ago and it resulted in a big failure for me as you know. Getting back into blogging again has giving me a better direction in life now and I so enjoy and love the great support others give me as well, especially you.
I am so impressed that your’re doing a 1/2 marathon. Please keep us up to date on how this goes and all the training you do for it. I say that because what you are doing is something that I would like to accomplish in the future as well. I know you’ll do great!
Keep it up man.. I’ll be checking in on ya….
