Go Becky Go

I'm Becky, 23 year old Florida native living in Colorado. Marathon runner trying to get back into running, I also do capoeira on occasion and like to go on adventures sometimes. I'm a certified EMT (but still trying to get a job as one). I like to lift, and am currently working on "getting back on the wagon" for weight loss. I originally started this blog and lost 25 pounds and kept it off for a long time, then life happened and I'm up higher than my original starting weight.. I am pretty ambitious and am signed up for some races this year to boost my motivation, including a half that goes up a 14er, and a 50k in the mountains.

This is not a weight loss blog, it's my blog and I talk about whatever I want including weight loss and food and boys and running and drinking and lots of pictures of myself. I have little to no filter when it comes to the things I say, I am kinda opinionated, so sometimes I'm awkward, but I'm pretty awesome.


Height: 5'1"
HW: 174 lbs
LW: 142 lbs (Sept/2011)
CW: 172.4 lbs (3/11/13)
Goal: to run fast and be healthy.


I love talking to new people, so if you have any questions just ask!

Final count of injuries and painful things during/after the marathon on Sunday:

1. Crazy blister that was terrible. My shoe is now stained in blood where the blister was.

2. That weird bruising that occurred after I took off my knee highs that was all greenish-yellow.

3. The chafing that occurred between my legs even though I put bodyglide on before the race and vaseline 3 times during the race.

4. The fact that my legs were hurting from mile 1, especially by my achilles/calf area.

5. The soreness I started feeling around mile 17 that made my sides hurt because of the bouncing of my fat from running and didn’t stop until today.

5. This gross looking chafed area by my neck where my sports bra was, it looks sick. I even put vaseline there but by then it was too late.

6. Oh yeah, and the whole, running/walking a marathon hurt a bit too.

Lessons: Wear LOTS of bodyglide, wear thicker socks, avoid my Adrenaline 12s on long runs, don’t stop training for 4 weeks after a 20 mile run then run a full marathon.
