Today, I’m linking up with Erika, Patty, and April for their weekly link-up called Tuesdays on the Run. Typically, I love this type of post. It’s always fun to look back and see how far you have come and all the progress you are making towards your goals…. EXCEPT when there really isn’t any progress.
