Athlete.... I like the ring of that.

So I have this dream of being an Athlete. But I have a problem with food. I love it. I am in the process of learning food is for fuel not for indulgence. I love that foods that are healthy for you are also really good. But I am here to talk about how I want to be an athlete.

My dream of being an athlete has never been stronger, I just have to push myself to get there. What to I mean by athlete? Well, I mean I want to be someone with is fit and competitive, someone who participates in sports, also someone who is healthy.

I made a list of what "Athlete Valerie" will be able to conquer.

Here is the list:

2. Eats right, focus on fruit, veggies, and lean meats.
3. Can climb a rock wall.
4. Is able to run a Tough Mudder
5. Runs Daily
6. Finds workouts
7. Makes time to workout
8. Works out on race weekends.
9. Invents ways to be active.
10. Avoids/Doesn't eat fried or gas station foods.

It is my life's goal to complete #1.

Here is a list of what I will be in the health aspect.

1. Has a healthy weight.
2. Maintains a healthy Blood Pressure.
3. Doesn't have belly fat
4. Has a healthy/close to healthy BMI.
