New Goals

Arrrr… Sitting here having my Pomagranite / Blueberry juice drink with a splash of Mona Vie in a big Pirate Mug. We have really decluttered the kitchen but did keep a couple of fun coffee mugs and glasses up on the top shelf. It is great to de-clutter but have a box to pull out with a few fun little nick nacks to keep things silly.

I ran in my first 5k since 1988. ( holy moly – when I put that in writing it looks a lot longer than it seemed. I remember the last several official races I ran like it was yesterday. But 1988 was not just yesterday) It was a great day. The big news was that I finished. That was my goal. To jog the entire course and not walk. So, I did it. Actually kept a pretty good pace and finished the race in 38 minutes. Not exactly running but definitely not walking. Although the official race picture of me shows me pouring it on to the finish line and the woman in front of me is clearly walking.

So, I am putting it in writing today. My running goal is to run a marathon. I have walked a marathon (pre 1988) but never run in one. So I’m logging into Active.com and starting my training today. I haven’t decided which marathon I want to run as my first one so if you have any suggestions please let me know.

So you on the road!
