I am in serious need of fitness. As much as I love scrapbooking and paper crafts, nothing about it is aerobic. And, it's clearly apparent all over my body. So, I joined a women's running group, to give my health and my arse a lift. I am making a commitment to run.....Run, Nan, Run. Think Forrest Gump...."I just felt like running......" The group consists of beginning runners, walkers, jog-walkers, and serious hard core ripped triathletes (my co-worker Michelle is in this group - and the catalyst for getting me going). Seriously, she is so in shape I get exhausted just looking at her.
And, to make sure I stay properly motivated and on track, I will be using my handy dandy running journal that I whipped out this week. Love LOVE LOVE this June Bug paper from Basic Grey. The chipboard is Zutter 8X8 chipboard covers and the coordinating white inner pages. I also used the pre-cut pocket pages from Pinecone Press for notes, receipts, last will and testament.....LOL! Check out my rad new sneakers.....sorry scrap budget took a hit since I bought these this month....oh well, I intend to generate more energy to scrap longer (and be able to dance on the crop table with more gusto!)
So, think of me kindly on Saturday mornings - at o'dark-thirty, getting my rear in gear (when I would much rather stay under covers nice and toasty); and other days of the week as I train for a 5k early next year. Really, you won't recognize me in a few weeks.....
Oh, and I had so much of the yummy paper and embellishments left over from this Basic Grey June Bug pack that I put together a quick LO of my little June Bug...Franny. She turned 7 in June

Good for you Nan! I can't wait to see you dancing on a table in your silver sneakers at the next crop I go to.
You go girl! But what do you mean? Nothing aerobic about paper crafting? I am shocked? Are you sure? I walk quite quickly across the craft room when I need something ... Does that count I wonder!!!
P.S you do realise I will now be talking all day in a Forest Gump accent ...
Good for you! Once you start you won't want to stop. It'll become your new addiction!
run nan run!
i'm totally cheering you on! :) keep up all the great work!
and CUTE running journal! :)
hugs,
sarah.
