It Feels Good!

Update from last post-
I ran without my ipod but I got some advice beforehand from a guy I work with. He told me, "just run two miles and get it over with as fast as you can. What matters is the miles." I did it in about 18:30 I think and I was very happy about that! It ended up being one of the best runs I've ever had. I'm glad I didn't give in to the temptation to postpone the run!

I have really been enjoying working out lately. I have been running every Mon. and Thurs. and doing pilates every Tuesday. Last night I tried out a kick boxing class with my best friend Michelle. It was fun but it was like aerobics kick boxing, and I'm not very coordinated sometimes. Lol.
I found something new that I just LOVE. I haven't actually gone to a Zumba class yet, but I've been practicing the moves and they are so fun!! Watch this, you will fall in love too...































This one looks way fun...






























I love nothing more than finding a workout that I have fun with and that is challenging, and this looks like both. I am going soon with my friend from work. =)

In my last relationship, I was with someone who was so needy of my time and jealous when I spent time on anything besides him, that I didn't get to go out and do fun things like this. My boyfriend, Dave, is so understanding and has no problem at all with me going out and doing things that make me happy. He even told me he thinks it's sexy how active I am =). Lol. maybe TMI, but I'm just in a really happy place right now and most of it has to do with both Dave and working out. I have accomplished a lot in the past few months and I feel great about it. I still have a huge feat ahead of me.....RAGNAR. Yikes. Here's a few pictures of my accomplishments this summer.....I completed the Lone Peak hike. It is now the longest hike I have ever done(it took us 12 hours!!!) In September I did the Dirty Dash which was one of the FUNNEST things I have ever ever done. Here are some pics of all the fun...
