My partner for the 3 day backed out. I'm not really sure where to go from here. I have a couple of options:
1. I can do the walk by myself, which is the least appealing option for me. This was supposed to be about camaraderie, friendship, girl-power...not so much if I do it by myself. And who wants to walk 60 miles and share a tent with a stranger? Yes, I'm sure I would make a few friends along the way...I just don't think I have it in me to do this alone.
2. Jeff offered to do it with me, which would be great except for the financial aspect of it. That means we would need to raise $4,600 using the same pool of friends, family, co-workers. And we would have to spend $180 in registration fees, $ for sleeping bags, $ for athletic gear. And a babysitter.
3. I can try to put another group together. I've put the word out there and only have one person interested. I'm honestly not willing to do this as a group of two at this point...too much can happen and then all of the hard work would be for nothing.
4. I can find something else to motivate me. I feel like this is the best option at this point. And that sucks.
I'm basically back at square one. Bleh. Makes me feel like giving up. But I won't. Some words of encouragement would be great at this point.
I will post my weigh in results and pictures this evening.

I can't commit to the 3-day, but maybe we could find a 5K to do together in the Fall?
ReplyDeleteOR! Maybe there's a way to find a team to join? You've got MONTHS to make friends on it.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could do the 3 day with you, but I am not good planning that far ahead. I know you can do this - lose the weight - even if you don't do the 3 day. I have faith in you Steph!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks girls! This is a HUGE commitment so I comepletely understand.
ReplyDeleteCandice-you will TOTALLY be pregnant by the time November rolls around. I think I might just do the mud run with Jeff...it's the same weekend. We can still do a team of 5 if you and Amanda want in (and aren't pregnant).
Lindsay-I would love to find a 5K! I can do that! Will you let me know if you hear of one? I'll do some research...
