DRoPpiNg More Than "Wait"

2012-04-17T20:22:00.001-07:00

Yes, its time to DRoP the "WAIT"!!! You have decided its time to make some changes in your life. You want to DROP 200 pounds, 100 pounds, 5 pounds or that hard to reach 10 pounds? It could be the heaviest of all pounds and that is the WAIT! The procrastination the heaviest weight of all. I want to eliminate this process of denying myself the life that I deserve. No more procrastination, I will think about what has preventing me from receiving the change I will love to see in myself. I'm going to eliminate the things that are not necessary in my life.

The first unnecessary product of life is debt. Decide, make it your victory, applaud yourself in advance because change is coming. How is possible to drop debt when you aren't working is to change your frame of mind. Think positive about the position you are in and focus on the things that you can do instead of the what not being done. For instance invest time, since you have more of that now in improving or developing a new you. How about making a plan to apply for 10 jobs everyday Monday through Friday. Also, talk to at least two people a day about your situation and ask do they know about any position available for hire and contact local independent business that may have a part time position available until something more secure becomes available.

Invest your time and spend less money. Invest your time into helping others with the talents that you have to offer. You are positioning yourself into a forward momentum, which can carry your self esteem towards feeling better about who you are until change is being transferred. Take a self improvement classes that will enhance your passions, you can improve someone else's life while improving yours.

Now you are constantly around friends that are the same position as yourself and constantly complain, not interest in change, then maybe its time to reconsider who you have selected as your choice of friends. You have a choice, you choose what type of lifestyle you want. You can maintain the same circle of "Ron's broke, Thomas is broke, Nancy is broke, Harold is broke and I'm broke." You are very comfortable because everyone is broke. But, if you decided to change and create a new circle of friends you have the opportunity for change to come your. You have to start dropping those "toxic friends." The easiest way to go about that is to find organizations to join that have people who are interested is the same passions. People who have the same mind set and interest in making self improvements. The more you speak more positive around your old circle of friends you will find the ones that interested in joining. Its time to eliminate toxic friends, for those who are a positive influence its time to move on. There is no time to "wait" you have weighted long enough!If you surround yourself with "I cant" type people, you will become an "I cant" person. Stay around "I will" and guess what... the "wait" drops!

Your friends have a fear of avoiding the things they need to do. Their priorities have been shoved so far behind them, they no longer know they exist. The conversations are intentionally distractions from getting to knowing what important positions they have in life because of Fear. Doubt and rejection has been the thing to avoid, so daily the main goal has been to become as far away as possible from being the person who we are better being. Eliminating fear sounds so extremely difficult its easier to except living in fear. But, if you decide that I'm going to DRoP kick fear into another existence "it will be done!" Claim by saying it out loud right now "I'm going to face my fears and expose them!" Make an outlined plan. Stop making excuses. There is something that's has kept you from doing what it is you are truly passionate about. Someone or something that has happen in your life that you haven't had the balls to face up to YET! Face your biggest monster FEAR and let him know you are stronger and will not wait for life to move in the right direction anymore! You will come face to face with your inner monster and go to battle.

It time to beat up the weight! It's time to win. Life allows you to two choices, pick one. Are you going to let it wait or weight!!! You gotta DRoP IT! Focus on your main purpose and spiritual reasons for being where you are in life right now. You no longer get distracted by negative energy, friends or thoughts. You deserve a better life financially, physically, spiritually and mentally. You find the journey becomes clearer lighter and its easier to see your purpose. The weight becomes less challenging and the wait time is a shorter distance between you and your destination.

OXY BreaK

2012-04-09T14:44:00.000-07:00

So I have taken an OXY Break, its been about a month now. I wanted to allow my body to do whatever its going to do from its training from the OXY. December's 2011 half results was 2:01 (great) at home in Jacksonville, FL, flat, scenic and cool. Then in January a 10K 55:16 home in Jax, at a 8:55 pace (cool). A 10 miler at the beginning of Feb I started fade with the beach heat, a 1:41 (10:10) Again no excuses. Then the next half was in March 2012 in New Orleans (party, party, eat, eat) maybe it was like starting over or something the time was 2:16. No excuses that was the results. The next was Memphis Tennessee, lots of rolling hill compared to Jax. Finished 2:10

So now it April and Im still running and havent taken any OXY since Memphis. Im coaching my mind to go like it was full of oxygen (especially since the body knows what it feels like now.) I will start taken the OXY again before my May 28 th event, which is a 5 miler. My goal is a sub 45. Let's see what happens! Gotta make it DRoP!

OXY Update

2012-01-24T18:58:00.000-08:00

I ran the Resolution Run 10K and1-14-12 My average pace was 8:54
This morning I ran 4.68 and I dropped my pace down to 8:29. I wasnt
ready to stop, I was relaxed and ready for more but my route was done.
What I have experienced from using the oxy is that it gives my body memory
of what my muscles fullest potential has achieved.

Now that I take the oxy less I have been about to coach myself though the run
with what I have experienced using the oxy and taking my body past the comfort threshold without fear. Im looking to run this pace for longer
periods of time. I like to go where I never gone with myself and the being
able to realistic conquer a challenge! Its on and DRoPPiNG!
Take the test! Its worth the $10! http://www.oxygen4energy.com/runwith1

Spectator

2011-12-12T08:23:00.000-08:00

When was the last time I stood on the side line and watched a 5K?? I don't ever remember doing that. That's why it felt so foreign for me to watch. It was exciting watching the front line runners take off super fast and others followed at a pace which it looked like an attempt to keep up. Gradually the pace slowed to the back of the crowd to walkers, strollers and doggies on leashes.
It took over five minutes for everyone to cross the line and I had to watch. I felt like a little kid who couldn't leave thinking I might miss out on something.
I ran over to see them at mile two which was only a block away. It didn't take long before the runners came flying up the street to the two mile marker. The race looked animated. Their turnovers were extremely fast. It was thrilling for me to watch, it got me inspired to run faster. Observing this has taught me from a different perspective to learning to be better is more than the act, practice, listening, passion but also hands on observation. I have noticed some time ago that you have to do what you see you want done.
How would I study online what the leaders are doing without seeing how they do it. I'm visual. I have taken it upon myself a while ago a motto to: "Do what they are doing instead of what they are saying." I never connected that method to running until I became a spectator.

Im in the 8's

2011-12-07T07:12:00.000-08:00

"Girl, you were smokin" was the response I heard from my running partner when she finished shortly after our run. The morning was not as cool as I expected and my legs felt sort of tight. Two things I had in my favor was plenty of rest and extra oxygen.
I hit my half way point 23 seconds faster than my PR. On the way back I shaved an additonal 20 seconds, bring my average pace to 8:57 for 4.68 miles. Though I stayed relaxedgh the run, the effort was there! I switched up my strides and running form a couple of times to adjust to the tightness in my legs. This allowed me to stay at pace.
Now to hold that pace for 13.1 miles would be beyond awesome. I look forward to the dy when I com back to this page and say "I remember when I dropped into my 8's and how excited I was, now high 8's are easy day at 6 miles." He he he .. I claiming that one, Gotta DRoP IT!

Tough Reflections

2011-11-19T18:00:00.000-08:00

I went to reflect on my pace for the Gate River Run March, 2008 (9.3 miles). I wanted to

compare to what I considered a good year. When I reviewed my time and pace it shocked me. I always considered that a good running year.

1572  1751  151  Donna Shacklett, 46,   30:09  1:00:50 1:33:32    1:37:36   10:28

January 2008 River Road Solution 5K. That was okay and I think I ran 8 miles today at a

9:04 pace.

It was four years ago I took a full marathon break and ran a half marathon December 2007. 
It looked like this. Don't look like I was ready to go the distance and mentally I wasn't 
ready. This the year a lot had changed for mainly my father passing.

I'm glad. I'm able to reflect, I glad I'm going the distance. Life can provide you a tough 
fightor you fight back. No need in standing there getting hit by life. Tough is not only 
in the physical sense but in the spiritual and the mental. Tough is the heart and being 
able to deliever and give from it. Tough is preparation for events that are bound to 
happen and how you handle life when it comes. Tough is not just for me its for those who 
I can help, by being an example of not giving up, of over coming some tough battles. 
Thank you Dad for being so tough! You handled life well! I love you.  I will continue to 
go the distance! 
Gotta DRoP IT!

Enjoy Your Cry

2011-11-15T13:16:00.000-08:00

Crying will set you FREE! Get your cry on while you are running, relieve yourself of emotional weight. I use to cry A LOT when on my runs. I would think about my father's condition and remember how we would hang out and run errands together. He couldn't always keep his balance and would just fall.
We then started using signals for when he thought he was going to fall and I would be by his side to keep him balanced. I finally talked him into using a cane. That was like pulling teeth and most of the time he wont use it.
My Dad walked with his shoulders back chest out, he stood strong, strong as he could! He was a proud man! I love you so .... and I cry!
I just wanted him to walk with me again. He laid in the bed for 7 years before he passed and it use to hurt to see him, so when I ran, I ran for him too. I would cry and sweat and sweat and cry. I just wished he can come see me run again. He was my biggest cheerleader. "Go Pamma-Lamma-Lam." Even working many jobs, at nights him and mom would be along side in the car driving cheering me on.
I dont cry much now that he has passed. I feel like he is always with me. I could imagine him walking, golfing and playing his drums singing and being happy. He is being his charming self, radiating joy from his eyes, smile and personable conversation. He stands strong in my heart, my legs, my runs and I hear him clearly. I able to receive very warm and happy memories of my Dad so when I cry now, its all joy! He's not in any pain and Im happy about that.
When I'm running over 13 miles, I run with father's drum stick. At that time I feel closer, like we are hand in hand and my thoughts are 'he is closer to me, to my heart.' Forever I love you Dad, I glad I have such an awesome father, he did his thing here! Whenever you feel the need .... Enjoy your cry!

Im Loving the Results

2011-11-10T20:09:00.000-08:00

I really have to give a lot of credit to the oxygen! This is real talk, prior to using the oxygen I have sweated it out with Sean T, speed drills, ate with a balanced nutritional plan...everything. This has taken me beyond my comfort zone. I have always considered myself pushing as hard as I can without causing injury.

Well I tried the oxygen during training session and did it to a comparative workout. I kicked my own butt! I did the test for one week. I felt no harm, tension, lactic acid, fatigue or anything. Only battle I now had with the oxygen was in my mind "what are you going to do with you?" It was a test of how much heart was I willing to run with. So I pushed it and I held the pace and it felt great. Now as I make my way back I always try to beat myself and that I did.

My speed training was faster and my endurance day was faster. So I did the following week without the oxygen. I felt fatigued but continued because my mind now knew what the body was capable of achieving. So they were in sinc. My time dropped again. Next week I will run during the training with the oxy and with every race. Im ready to see change. ~Gotta DRoP IT!

If you are ready to try a sample order below.

Try the OXY TEST!

DAY 2 - OXY TEST

2011-11-03T09:18:00.000-07:00

Day 2- This was a short test.
One my run this morning was a shorter distance to test my speed. So It set out and ran .9 miles, almost a mile. I started off slow and picked up about 2 minutes in. I found a comfortable but harder pace than normal and held it there. I finished 7:41, my personal best within the last eight years!!!

On my negative split I finished 15:05. That made my pace back at 7:24. REMARKABLE!!!! This is my training runs. I am screaming about these results. I want to know is this really mental, cause that's what people are going to say or think. This is not mental, this is physical. Im doing it!

How much was a can of oxygen? $10. a friend referred me.
How many did you get? 2 my cost for 2 can was 19.90. They gave me free shipping too.
How long does one can last? About 1 week
Did you reorder? Yes I did, but this time I ordered more to share with my friends.
How can I order it from you?

So I went and got an evening workout on too and killed it!!!! I love the strength I feel!
I couldnt use "my legs feel tired" as an excuse to slow myself down either!

I Run because I AM Worth IT!

2011-08-03T05:03:00.000-07:00

I AM woth every bit bit of the strength it takes to be consistent in this journey. For as long as I have been running it has never become easy to me and when it feel like it is getting easy, thats when I go harder. So this making me stronger, to last longer, eat better, clears my head and makes me think more productively each day. I am worth all that.
To know Im worth it makes me happy, to know I can achieve my goal when I set out on a run makes me more confident and I can focus on achieving my challenges because thats how I started morning with a winning attitude.
Maybe if was so easy it wouldnt be worth doing to me, but to know this is benefiting my health too is a plus. I AM worth planning my health and running is my health plan. I will keep running until I just cant anymore.

My Running Skirt

2011-04-08T07:49:00.000-07:00

I felt alright, it was alittle warmer out today. I ran in my running skirt and I really dont have the thighs for these skirt (even though they are cah-ute.) I bought this skirt as one of those goal setting skirts. Im not a big clothes dresser but I like the ladies with the running skirts. However, if I need to probably wear ny own shorts under neath that wont do the creepy thing. They crawl up my thighs and I have to keep doing that tug thingy, you know?
I weathered the heat today and it looks like I got some color! He he he. I really dont like running this time of the day when the sun is beaming, it sort of drains me. But I didnt seem to do that bad running 4.5 miles in 43:29 my pace is building. Im loving it and I was cah-ute he he he.... Gotta DRoP IT

Moving & Improving

2011-04-06T08:37:00.000-07:00

WoW! It really must be the gym workouts. Maybe the protein shakes, I dont know for sure but I surely like change! My pace is getting better as I'm getting stronger. Im always researching for better results. I know I've been drinking more water than I usually do too. Maybe I can catch my pace from 3 years ago...hmmmm! I believe in the posssibilities!
Gotta make it DRoP!
I was really feeling like when I was running today, that I was getting tired of keeping the pace. So while I was running I started wondering "what day of the week is this?" I was confused between Wednesday or Thursday. It was feeling like it was suppose to be a rest day. So when I made to the halfway point I decided to make it back the same pace because it felt like I was taking the pace down sometimes, but never let myself drag. I felt strong, I could feel my gym workout too. I'm loving it. Gotta keep DRoPPING IT!

Im Bacccck!

MY Last Marathon

2010-12-18T12:09:00.000-08:00

A new challenge approaches me as I end my marathon ventures with my Dad. I had decided back in 2006 that I would not run anymore marathons because of the pain and knee injuries I was having. I hadnt a point to prove any longer and I had completed 4 marathons at that time. I wanted to finish faster, however I had accomplished the goal.

In June 2007 my Dad passed. He lived in pain and never did he give a piddy party while laying bed ridden. He was very strong, a joy to be around and he was my best friend, my hero. I decided to dedicate running with my Dad hand in hand by carrying his drumstick. 2010, my fourth marathon later with him, I have decided to stop ignoring the pain in my knees and focus on a new challenge.

My Dad lived with high blood pressure and the medications the majority of his life. He strongly advised me to never start taking the med's if I was ever diagnosed. Well, I was diagnosed early. I found that I had HBP through a change of events like passing out, the room fading to black, my equalibrium being off and my lims going numb.
Once, I passed out in the gym and when I awoke there were many unrecognized faces standing in a circle over me trying to bring me back. I went to doctor and my numbers were so high that she prescribed me a high numbers of different meds to begin right away. I refused the meds and ask for another options. She had me to said a waiver for refusing the meds and recommended exercise, meal change and breathing techniques. I have made a life style change. It wasnt easy, it was necessary.
I love you Daddy and we have a new challenge. "What is it Pamela Ann?" Body Sculpting, lets keep DRoPPING IT! I will still keep running, but our challenging distance will now be 13.1 miles, the half marathons! Im going to start skating again now too! Thanks Dad for being my hero and giving me the champion within to keep DRoPPING IT!

HOT Flash-flash-flash!

2010-09-08T08:00:00.000-07:00

Blah! To much heat and humidity. I ran a more shadier route and had company and we talked a little. We did talk shoes too. My fav's are the 2150 still Asics He had a good pace which started me off faster than I usually go. It was 3.94 mi 00:42 10:39 pace. It felt a whole lot slower than.
It was hot, thats how it went. I really admire those of you who do it in the heat. I would rather drop it at 5:30am any day. My feet were scream "ICE" My hot flashes dont even get that hot and they dont ever last that long.
Im so glad I had someone to scoot with today (yes I scoot) or I would have turned around long time ago. I still didnt even go the complete route because when I saw him ahead of me turn around I knew it was time for me to turn.
However, I did get it done and it is a lot better than sitting here talking about what I could have done. And Im sure I would get stronger from today's run some how. This and something better is about to happen, Have a great today! Run Steady!

Eating Before the Long Run

2010-08-17T10:04:00.000-07:00

If Im running under an hour I just use a banana for fuel, pass that point I start adding stuff. I have an order in which I place my food into my system. Yep, I get real systematic with now.

Let's say that today Im running 12 miles, okay? Last night I would have eaten enough carbs to hold me and this morning I start off with room temperature water and a banana. It loosen things up, so I can DROP IT easy before I leave the house.

I add, before I leave the house a slice of toast with honey. I hear many people do the coffee thing, but it just dont work with my system. I feel like dropping about the 3rd mile again and I dont like that feeling of running with my butt clenched really tight.

So now that Im dress and ready to drive to my run, I get out my GU and I have learned to take half a pack. Its in the body about 15 minutes before you start running. I take the other half 30 minutes later. So I do a half a pack every 30 minutes.

Now here's a tip that I use for like goofy energy. I take my multivitamin the night before I go to sleep. So if you are going to bed at 10pm, try not to wake up before your time to stay awake or... yep, you wake up full of energy and goofey legs ready to do some serious miles!

I have also done this with coffee the night before and I wanted to run like Forest Gump! Doing the coffee at night gives me plenty of time to DROP IT in the morning!

Take a snack with you in your car so as soon as you are finish with your run you can get some protein to those hard worked muscles!

Run Steady!

The Daily Mile Gadget

2010-08-11T04:21:00.000-07:00

I was introduce or should I say challenged, to log my miles on an online gadget thingy by a neighborhood running buddy. I love that she introduce me to the http://www.dailymile.com because it really gives me the opportunity to challenge myself. So with that and today being hump day, I had to beat my yesterday's pace.

I started off my first with my mind on the gadget and thought I have to do better than yesterday, cause not only will I know, but so will others. I ran my core with Sara and she was feeling blah, but she kept a pretty good pace for four miles. We ran mile intervals. The mile were less than ten minute each and we had one minute walk break. 80 degrees felt like 90.

Well Im about to go report onto the dailymile, alittle somthing on facebook and twitter, all these gadgets and for the love of running. I love it! And this is my invitation to you. http://www.dailymile.com I will love your company.

Speaking of gadgets, I will love to have this little device. How many have tried it?
