Man did I need this weekend!! All last week was really rough- my workouts were bad, my attitude was bad, my body felt bad . . . it just wasn’t a great week. But this weekend was SO refreshing!! I have quite a few people to thank: My boss - Kristi!! Thank you for letting me leave early Friday so I could rest my body and my mind! Shaun & Jen - thank you for a kick butt birthday celebration!! It was a much needed time of chilling! Jen B - thanks for spurring me on to go bike riding Saturday night! I’m SO glad we found that awesome trail by our house! Page – thank you for letting me relax in your pool and just let the water carry away all the stress from the week! Jill – thank you for the swimming lessons!! I feel 100% more confident now!
I had another “mile stone” in my training on Sunday morning. Jen and I got up and went to White Rock Lake at 7am to do our Sunday morning run. And for the first time Ever- Jen and I ran- nonstop, for 45 minutes!! What?! 45 minutes!! We aren’t sure how far we went, but we think it was pretty close to the distance of the race- 5K. Man, it felt SO good! Now don’t get me wrong, we aren’t talking about a full on sprint run. This is a pretty slow and steady jog, well- Jen’s is quite faster than mine, but you get the point. But still- 45 minutes!! Whoo-hoo!!! I was SO pumped!! And because of the early time, we were able to make it to church for an Amazing sermon on Father’s Day- speaking about our Heavenly Father. Then we hooked up with Jill and Page and got some Yummy Einstein Bro’s breakfast. Then, we headed to the pool at their apartment and laid out there for close to 3 hours! It was So relaxing! As I floated along on Page’s raft, I said- this is what rich people must feel like!! I think we might have to make that an every Sunday ritual! What have I been thinking my whole life- thinking I hated pools!!! I’ve been so blind! Then Jill gave me some mad swimming lessons and now I feel so much more confident about being in the water! Thanks ladies!!
