Knock Knock

Who's there?  Apparently not me!!

Oh well.

So, my brother and I finished our first Half Marathon together! It was a great experience!! :-) 

I've also quit running so much (basically not at all, lately. Oops.)  I re-joined 24 hour fitness and basically think the only time I will get to grab a workout will be in the WEEEEEEEE morning hours.  Like, waking up at 4-430am, morning  hours.  Yah, I know.  We'll see how THAT goes! ;-) 

I also bought all the study materials to study to become a Certified Personal Trainer through ACSM.  I've already conquered reading the entire first chapter, taking notes in my own words and making flash cards.  I'm a nerd like that.  This is something I've always wanted to do and I figured "Why wait!?".  :-)  I am very excited for this journey. 

Till next time. 

....hopefully more often than before, right?  LOL

It's Official.

1. I am a HORRIBLE blogger.
2. I am signed up for the Armadillo Half Marathon on 3/6/11 with my big brother, Jeff! GO us! Both of our first half marathons.

I am more than halfway deep into my training... the farthest I have run so far is 9 miles. 


Seriously, months ago I would laugh at the thought of myself running 9 miles.

Take that, 9 miles!

Mark my word... I have NO desire to run a full.  This is torture on it's own! It's only a half, too. 

Ah, what did I get myself into?  Booooooo!

Goaaaaaaalllllllllll(s)!!!!

This year I am setting up goals and not resolutions. Here they are:

1. Run a half marathon (hopefully the Armadillo half in College Station on 3-6-11).
2. Simplify.... I've got a lot of clutter in my life and I want to decrease it by 50%, hopefully. Salvation Army and Goodwill will be seeing a lot of us this year!
3. Do a Bible study by myself. I went out and bought "The Power of a Praying Wife" at BN the other day.
4. Decorate our house. Make it our HOME. This may include new flooring ;-)
5. Eat 70% vegetarian. I have never been a big meat eater to begin with and I have really grown to love a lot of vegetarian dishes.

Anyone else make and goals?

2011 Goals

I don't like the term "resolutions". I am a goal type of gal.

What are your goals/resolutions for the new year?

I will be thinking about mine over the next few days and then share with everyone. Feel free to share yours, too!

Until then!

Hmmmm

The whole keeping up with this thing kinda fell by the wayside.  Oops.  Life gets in the way sometimes.

So, I am still planning on doing the CapTexTri at the end of May but right now I am training for my first Half Marathon.  Armadillo Half Marathon in College Station, Tx.

3/6/11, baby!

This past weekend was my first long run.  4 miles somehow turned into 4.5. Weird how that happens.  ;-)

This weekend I will run 5 miles.  I am pretty sure that will be my longest run to date.  Should be fun!

Work has kept me super busy.  On top of my 40-45 hour a week hospital job, I now have a part time job at the Vet Hospital that my puppies go to.  I work between 9-10 hours a week there, too.  Needless to say, I am wiped most of the time.  I don't get to sleep in anymore :(  Boo!

Hopefully I can learn to manage time better and maybe get on here more often?

Hopefully!

I'm In!

Are you????

Still Alive

I am still alive, people!

Sorry, life's been really crazy lately.  To be honest, there wasn't a lot of running going on either. 

Proud to report, this week I've gotten back. Slowly but surely. 

BON running club on Tuesday and a quick 1 miler with Sadie around the neighborhood yesterday.  Hey, I am celebrating small victories here.

Back later!
