Welcome back!

How is it almost November already?!  This year has been a whirlwind.  So much has happened way too fast.  

Time to sloooooowwwww it down......

I just finished reading an article about how to get back into running.  I haven't had a real run since July.  I think I really needed the break, both mentally and physically.  I think it's time to pour the wine in a sippy cup and jump back on the treadmill.


Let's go!


I don't really have a plan.  Not yet anyways!  I'd like to get back into the gym 'old school style' which I used to love: cardio followed by strength training.  I sort of quit doing this and started with the workout dvds and yoga.  Both of which I got bored with very quickly....

I want to build up my miles again and get myself in gear for half marathon training come the new year.  I'm going to run the Woody's Half Marathon, the Dinosaur 5km, and Mud Hero for sure in 2014.  I'l like to try some new races as well, like the October run in Victoria and maybe the half in Vegas in November! 

 Any suggestions for some other runs?  Anyone want to join me?

  1. lol--the cup does indeed, rock. Good luck with this....I strength train and have a heavy bag, that's about it. Perhaps I don't care for running as it seems you're going somewhere...when you're really not?

Feel the burn.

B is no longer for beer and I'm sad   I really should have thought this theme through a little bit more.  Words that start with B and are relative to my "commit to fit" challenge aren't the easiest to come by.  I've decided to go with " burn "  because I am already feeling it!! On Saturday I decided to terrorize exercise my core and upper body after my run.  DOMS set in late on Sunday and after an intense work out tonight, I dread laughing.    My commit to be fit challenge will include 3-4 strength training sessions per week in addition to my half marathon training program.  It's time to feel the burn !  Can you feel it?

April 1st marks the beginning of the A-Z Challenge .  I didn't exactly write out a plan for this challenge because I knew what my posts would be about: alcohol .  It was kind of a no brainer.   What I didn't expect was for my first post to be about abstaining from alcohol .   WHAT???
