Cold day for a walk

I just completed an activity with RunKeeper http://runkeeper.com/activity?userId=7260581&trip=556274016

I went for a late morning walk and it wasn't the most ideal weather conditions but I enjoyed it just the same.

While walking, I had an idea to make my walking, running and cycling a little more fun this Summer. I'm going to do a picture scavenger hunt. I think I will poll my friends on Facebook for ideas of what to find on my adventures. Just something to make it a little more fun. So, if you have any ideas please leave a comment down below. Thanks for reading😃

Core Challenge Day 23 and a gift from Boston

Day 23 of my core challenge is done and it was a killer😧

46 push ups (ugh)
35 second plank (Yeah!!)
44 plank reaches (ugh)

Only 8 days left and tomorrow... No push ups (Yeah!!)

My friend and co-worker Sandra and her husband Tony  was in Boston on Monday so Tony could run his first Boston Marathon. He brought it home with a finish time of 3 hours and 32 minutes.

This morning, Sandra had a gift for me from the marathon expo...I love it!!

The Mojo is Back!

I'm back..weak in the knees...but I'm back. I went for a 3 mile walk this morning with a little running thrown in. I really missed the feeling of running. The fresh air going through my lungs and just being outside again. I quit running not only because of a knee injury but I had something happen that hurt me physically, mentally and sprirtually. My spirit was broken for running. I didn't want to quit but I just didn't have the heart for it anymore. I turned to reading and watching TV after work. I lost interest in staying in shape and just more or less being lazy. I don't have a problem being lazy but when I realize my jeans and my work pants didn't fit as well as they use to, then I realized I better get back on track. Spring is here and Summer is just around the corner...I have no excuses for not getting out and enjoying a good walk/run.

Now I still plan on some Summer reading...and it will probably take me all summer to read it too.

Friday fun run

Fridays are my day off and normally I just bum around home after having a long week at work. It's getting nice out...Winter is NOT coming...at least not for another 8 months...(had to put a Game of Thrones reference in), and it's time to get active. I have to make myself accountable so I'm posting in my blog that Fridays will be my fun run day. It will probably be more walking then running but it's a start. With the help of a Facebook core challenge that I've been doing all month ( thanks Amy and Jen) and the yoga videos that I've been sprinkling here and there, I've been feeling stronger.
