Letting things slip, then I'm inspired with a new enthusiasm

Lately, I've been sliding into old habits with regards to food unfortunately, and it's starting to show in my measurements and my clothes again :o(
It starts with an odd bit of bread as a snack as I "didn't fancy an apple" or eating wheat pasta because I "couldn't be botheres to find to good stuff" or even just not pushing forward with my running as "I've got pleanty of time til the half marathon".

Well, procrastination and lazy habits have seen my jeans become tighter and my waist a bit chubbier. Must get inspiration, and lo and behold, Charlie Wall comes up with a new exciting challenge. It's as if she knew!!
8 weeks until the Cambridge Bootcamps Blow Out Ball, at a posh hotel, and posh dresses are a must!. So here we have the ABs OFF Challenge, where I have taken measurements (?) and pictures of my flabby torso, and in 8 weeks time, I should have a smiling belly button, looser jeans and a bit more longevity in my running, ready for the half marathon in October.

I've already pushed my run to the nearly 7km mark, which was amazing for me, as the furthest I could ever run, at a push, was 5km. Clean food was bought yesterday, measurements and photos loaded onto the support site, and I have really got a new energetic, optimistic and passionate feeling about this challenge.
