Okay, the pressure is on. We are down to the wire. The clock is winding down. There’s no time to spare. Do you catch my drift?
The CIBC Run For the Cure is THIS SUNDAY.
Here is where I had planned to be in terms of fundraising at this point:

All right! The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run For the Cure is less than three weeks away. This is crunch time. This is when I tell you how all my training, exercise and general fitnessing is paying off. I should be bragging that I’m in peak physical condition and ready to run 5Ks in my sleep!
So. Um.
Er.
You see, the thing is that I had actually for real been doing a fantastic job on the fitness front all last winter. It’s mind-blowing, really, how good I was. Twice a week through the winter, I ran on a treadmill, and then outside on city streets as soon as early spring hit. Plus (!) I was doing other strength and cardio workouts at home on top of that at least a couple times a week.
That I only managed to drop a couple pounds last winter is a great testament to just how much I love food.
But, regardless of weight loss, I felt great. I was regularly and (eventually) painlessly incorporating real heart-pounding, boob sweat-inducing exercise into my daily life. I felt strong and healthy and good.
