Thanksgiving!!!

Greetings Track and Field Fans,
Happy Thanksgiving or should I say Happy Belated Thanksgiving!!! I hope that you all were able to spend time with family and friends and really take the time out to appreciate all your blessings. I did enjoy my holiday, it was a great time with family and I got the opportunity to enjoy a feast. I love eating turkey, ham, macaroni and cheese, greens, sweet potato casserole, and the list can go on and on and on......

Great times, yes great times. I am always sad when everyone has to leave but it was a nice time for our family. So training has been going well and I am geared up for this upcoming week. We are almost in the month of December and man from here the indoor season is getting closer and closer. Before I know it indoors will be here and I hope to have my schedule up in the coming month. I have an idea of where I am going but want to finalize some things before I give out the locations. Hey feel free to check me out or stay tuned to the websites of the meets to see how the results are. So my goal now with blogging is to blog every Sunday evening (wheww when Pika is sleep and Mommy can sit down and relax ha ha) and I want to get my followers up to 500. Who is helping me do so??? And of course you know your girl is on twitter....and yes it is addicting......

So please again feel free to share my site with friends, families and even your enemies haha. I want everyone to know what it is like coming back post baby after being a Gold Medalist in a World Championships and the Olympic Games. Many ask is it possible...can she do it.....what will her end result be??? Well my answer is to be back on top and even better and faster than before.

So all in all the last week was productive, I am continuing to improve on my weights and running. My best workout was 8x200 with 2 min rest, and my sprints of 3x30,3x40,3x50, and of course the favorite woodway treadmills. BTW I need to email my favorite strength coach and see what our next step is!

So since Thanksgiving is about being thankful, I am going to enlighten you all on what Mrs. Wineberg is thankful for. Hey if you feel for it respond back and post what you are thankful for also....

I am Thankful for all the blessing God has given me in my life, the ups/downs, my family, my supporters and the drive to always want to do my best. I am also thankful for being given the opportunity to advance myself in the world today and be able to share myself with others and motivate them to be who they are. I am proud to have such a supportive family, my mom, husband, daughter and a host of other relatives....without you all none of this would be possible. Thank you!!!!!

Training has BEGUN!!!!

Wow,
Hey everyone!! I am finally updating my BLOG!!!! I hope that you all didn't think that I disappeared ha ha. Things have been hectic and having a 15 month doesn't help, haha. I sometimes feel like SuperWomen and then crash in the bed at night. So you all know that I have lots of updates, so bear with me if this is a longer blog than usual. Whewww so my training for Daegu 2011 has begun and I am excited about my return to TRack and Field. I know that I competed last year after having Brooklyn but it was more of an opportunity for me to see where I was at. And trust me I was not where I wanted to be......espicially to be considered as one of the top runners in the world in the 400 meters.

So your girl is Back and Training started on September 27th and things have been going great! My training consist of alot of strengthening, and base work. Taking a year off caused me to lack in my strength endurance and our goal is to build my base so much that running a 400 will be a piece of cake. I am headed in the right direction so far, my times in practice are equivalent to my times from 2008 where I was ranked top 10 in the world. My goal is to be better and stronger than 2008, and retain another World Championship Medal and of course the 2012 Olympics. So let's see who is on board and gonna help in cheering Mary Wineberg on!!!!!!!!

My husband, aka Coach Wineberg has been proud of me so far, we have a plan in place and he wants the best for me. He is my biggest fan and now Brooklyn is too. She loves watching my videos of my races and will sit and say Momma, Momma. Just being able to see her do that is a definite tear jearker, she inspires me to be who I am, and to give a 110 percent when training.

So my goal is to update you all once a week here on blogger so please help me out by getting my blog reader numbers up, spread the word, get all your family and friends reading "I'm Back...for my 2012 Olympic Quest (Mary Wineberg). Help me attain at least 500 followers. Can you all do this? Please!!!!!!!!!
Also feel free to follow me on Twitter, where I update daily (wineberg400)
So enjoy your day and have a great week!

Until we meet again,
Night
Mrs.Wineberg
