221 Days Until Race Day!

 Whoa! I didn't realize it had been so long since my last post. Sorry about that. Fortunately it's for mostly good reasons. One reason for the long delay in posting is because I've gotten more busy between work and school, so that's been taking up more time lately but I'm working to get a routine down, so hopefully that helps.

So on the positive side, the exercises around the house are working out great and I even think I'm starting to feel an improvement in my strength. I want to push myself more by being more conscientious about doing the exercises each time I come across them. Well, that might be a bit much since I walk past my "Wall Pushup" note every time going to the kitchen. But I definitely want to increase the number of sets. 

On another positive note, I finally got to the running/walking club. It took a couple more Saturdays before it all came together and I was able to join them. Right now there are 4 of us and hopefully if the weather continues to stay on the more reasonable side temperature wise, then more people will join. However, the experience has been great because I didn't know how much I missed hearing about track until I joined the club. They talk a lot about what they are doing for running and discussing upcoming events and goals and such, so it's been a great motivator for me to get in better shape so I can challenge myself and see what I can do out there on the track. 

As I mentioned, the weather seems to be cooling off finally so I've been getting outside for a lot more walks, which has been great! I missed getting outside to exercise and so it's been wonderful to be able to do that again. I even have my favorite walking buddy back out there with me. Yay! 

Sadly my watch broke and I had to buy a new one. It is the same kind as the old one so it shouldn't take me too long to get familiar with how it works. Usually I buy the plain black version but I decided to shake things up and get the hot pink and purple one. Why not have a little fun, right?
