I had a blast! I had paint tossed at me at several points during the race. I guess I shouldn't call it a race--there were no timing chips and I certainly didn't time myself. I can't wait to do it again next year!
After my race, I was plum out of fitness goals. This is not a good thing. Without a goal, I become hapless and complacent, trudging through each day without purpose or any kind of caring. So, I set another goal.

Insanity is a 60-day conditioning program, full of high intensity cardio and resistance exercises. I'm trying to make this lifelong fitness journey less about aesthetics and more about my total health. But I'd be lying if I didn't admit that I'm secretly hoping Insanity will help me get ready for my birthday "freakum dress." Just sayin...
I've heard that Insanity is tough, but I've seen people get ridiculous results from it. So I'm giving it a whirl. Why? Just because right now I think I can't, and I really want to change my mind. But in order to do it, I have to start thinking that I can. I can and I will.

As far as my diet is concerned, of course I'll be keeping better track of it. My primary concern is getting enough calories, so I will likely use My Fitness Pal to track my diet. There is a handy dandy nutrition guide (with recipes) that comes along with the Insanity package, so I'll utilize that to plan my meals. We're talking lots of lean protein, fruits, and veggies, and 5 meals a day. I have a basic idea of how I want to structure my meals, so I'm excited to hit the grocery store and stock up!
I'll take before, 30-day, and 60-day progress pics. I would take measurements, but I never seem to do those right. I will post before pics in the next post, along with my results from the Fit Test.
Stay tuned!
ETA: So I didn't post pics on the next post, but they are coming soon!
