Run 3, Walk 2

"I've got the black lung, Pop." (thank you Zoolander). Holy crap tonight was a tough run. Is there a difference in elevation from Lethbridge to Calgary because my run before this was a BREEZE compared to tonight. Regardless, I DID IT! Next week is run 4, walk 1. I'll be ready!
So this is completely random and has nothing to do with my exercising. Is it just me that has NEVER been on a vacation in my married years? I mean, we did go to P.E.I. two summers ago so I guess that could count, but I mean, hop a plane, and head to sunny beaches...a cruise...anything. We didn't even get a honeymoon...sad. Kyle and I are so old fashioned and feel like we have to have all our debt payed before we do something like that, but if we DO wait, we'll have kids in school and all kinds of other complications. Do you all just go for it and pay for it later? Seriously it feels like everyone I know has been on a vacation recently or is planning one soon. Blast! Anyways, that's my rant. Here's my thought...when I get to my half way point...small vacay. And when I hit my goal, goodbye Canada! Hello Hawaii...or someplace amazing. :)

  1. We went to San Diego a couple years ago - in December, so it was too chilly to beach, etc. I'm totally jealous of all the sun-seekers & wonder how they do it too!

    I find what I eat the night before a run really makes a difference for me. Gotta have my carbs!!

    Stick with it!! It WILL get easier!!
    You're doing great!

  2. if it makes you feel any better. . . that was our first vacation, AND, we had our kids with us. . . lol. which is how we wanted it, but still, it wasn't a romantic couples get-away. i always wanted to go somewhere tropical with just jake before we had kids, but he didn't think it was a "priority." now i wish we would have. i think your idea of rewarding yourself with a little trip is fabulous!!!

    you are continuing to inspire me!
