Today is the first day of spring.

It's the perfect day to begin to lose my wheat belly.

Fall down 100 times

get up 101.

That sums up my attempts in dumping wheat. I stick to it for a week or so then fall off. Then get back up and fall back down.

Tomorrow starts a new day.

This time I'm doing the small steps approach. First I ditch the sugar, followed by the wheat. Doing the 2 steps at once is overwhelming. One bad habit at a time.

Last weekend, although it was wheat fueled, I completed marathon #39, Red Rock Canyon in Las Vegas.

The elevation kicked my butt hard. Here's what the half marathon looked like..

The whole marathon re-traced our steps. We had to turn around and go back up this #*&% hill!

The views were worth the climb, gorgeous scenery was everywhere.

And the t-shirt and medal were terrific...

In 2 weeks I head to Boise to do a 12 hour race. In the meantime, I'll be focused on banishing my sugar habit.
