Welcome to my blog! I tried earlier to create my first "entry" but, try as I might, couldn't come up with anything worthy of publicizing. There's a lot of pressure when you are writing for a larger audience...larger being...more than just me!
So, I've titled this blog "training" because I had a great paragraph written out in the "About Me" section of this blog that had to be scrapped due to size restrictions. Apparently you are only given 1200 characters to write a blurb about yourself. Anyway, this paragraph was on "training" and my endeavors to be a "triathlete". Not a professional triathlete by ANY stretch of the imagination...just the kind of person who manages a few workout on the treadmill, the bike and in the pool a few times a week...and who sometimes finds herself enrolled in races involving all three sports. Let me clarify further: enrolled in these races not to podium...just to finish!
I've struggled lately with being able to get all of my scheduled work-outs in. Although I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to run, I enjoy the bike and only tolerate the pool. Open water scares the begeebers out of me. I don't really know what begeebers are...but I enjoy the word.
My goal for April is to complete all of my workouts. How can I expect my children to follow through with committments if I don't? So, here it is, 11 pm...and I skipped my bike work out tonight to create a blog...how fitting! But...to compensate...I'm going to implement this goal early! I am going to force myself out of bed tomorrow morning and onto the bike! Better go...6 am will be here far too soon!
Scrapbook side note: Stay tuned for photos of all the fun projects I am creating for the Trade Fair on May 1st!

About Me
- Lara Pearce
- My name is Lara and I am, first and foremost, the mother to three beautiful children. I was blessed with Alexandria 16 years ago - when I, myself, was only a baby at 18. Allie has always been my reason to succeed and together, I finished university and began a wonderful teaching career! Our lives were further enriched when we met Rick, my wonderful husband of 6 years. Our family grew with the births of Annah (now 6) and Braxton (now almost 5). Now, with three kids and three dogs, we are complete! I stay home for the time being because being a Mommy is the most rewarding (and busy!) job of all and I wouldn't want to miss any part of it! Eventually I may go back to teaching, but I'm not really sure when...when I do go back, I want to be able to put my heart into it and know that my children are at a point in their lives that I can do that. Aside from being a mom and all that trying to be a good mom entails, I absolutely love to scrapbook and I absolutely love to run!! I don't think Blogging is for me and I really don't know why anyone would want to read a blog that I write, but, heck, I'll give it a try.
