So I have been slacking on working out the past month or so. Dave and I have been so super busy that it's hard to make the time. I know, I know. There's no excuse. Or, as my friend from work would say "Excuses are like ass holes, everyone's got one and they all stink." So he was just asking me why I hadn't been running, so I brought my running stuff to work and went at lunch! It felt so good. I cannot emphasize too much how good you feel after a good run that challenges you. Since I haven't been running much lately, I walked 5, ran 20, then walked 5. It felt awesome. I'm going to start going Mon. Wed & Fri. at lunch. Plus, some people at my work put together a pilates group that is going to meet once/week at lunchtime so we can get in a good workout during the workday!
I have been hiking about once/week and decided I'm going to try and do the 'big hike' with my hiking group this year. The big hike this year is Lone Peak. I've heard it's pretty rough. We have training hikes coming up on the 6th and the 11th of September and then the big hike will be the 18th. The following weekend, I have the Dirty Dash. It's a 10k.....in the mud!!!!!!!!! Am I nuts here?? Probably! Lol. I just hope that if I'm running three times/week that all of this stuff won't absolutely kill me. Wish me luck!
