Running Solo

Well, my neighbor was supposed to get home last night, but she's still not home so I got up and ran alone today. I did our "normal" 1.3 mile route and pushed myself a bit harder since it was just me and I was feeling up to it. I added a second sprint and jogged a bit more than usual. I returned home alive and well. I have another headache coming on so I'm working on rehydrating. No blisters today (I had one after the last run) so I guess I got my shoes on the right feet this time (just kidding.) Now I'm just tired, but energized, if that makes any sense. Next hurdle, the dishes in the kitchen.

Katie, I am super impressed with you. You are making major changes. I'm trying to make some as well, though not a drastically (mostly because I suck at major life changes). The presence of summer fruit and veggies really helps with the healthy eating though, thank goodness.

Blythe: I also suck at life changes, which is why I'm just focusing on one "little" thing. Already I've given up any thought of making vegetables a main course because, well, I haven't figured out how to do that without setting aside significant time to plan a week's worth of meals and purchase all of the vegetables. (though I did make a really good fresh carrot and jalepeno salad on Saturday for the family). The blog is also helping me hold to my life change. I'm accountable to my readers, not to mention I have an end goal: AUGUST and all of you guys! (Don't ask me if my dishes and laundry are caught up, though)
