Being a whale...nah! A manatee? Nope...I think a horse is more beautiful!

I have not written a post since December. Nobody has asked why not but I will not take offence since I am not writing for anyone else in mind. ;-)
Too much has been going on to stop to write things down.
Early next month I will be doing my 1st 5km in 15 years.  My last one was on Canada Day 1998 in Langley, B.C.  My love for aerobics and walking took over and that is what I've stuck with over the years. Running has caught my attention again but with so much snow this past winter and now still a great deal of slush and mud it's been tough to train outdoors.   I cannot even walk down my driveway without my feet getting soaked. 
Anyway, I almost gave up bothering with doing the 5km at all.  My husband thought I would injure myself since I haven't done a great deal of training on the road.  He thought I should perhaps walk or wait till next year. My friends won't let me quit.  Thanks ladies for thinking I can do it. :-)

So here's to getting back into running again. Thanks to two ladies I consider athletes, my running journey has begun again. I am just terrified I would come dead last.
Oh...and I have started a treadmill-saving-up-jar so that on those really mucky days...I have no excuses!
Enjoy the journey, whether walking, cycling, running or rolling....

Merry Christmas everyone!

Wishing you love, joy and peace thanking God for His coming to earth to save us.

I wrapped up my 12 day of walking!

Finished this morning with a Walk Strong Express...30minutes of walking, squats, weights, lunges.  So happy to be in the Christmas season working out more than I eating.

Hope you've found time for at least a walk.

Enjoy every step of the journey.

On the 11th day of walking....

I was a ready for a good 4 miles when for some reason my laptop wouldn't read my dvd. Plan B...

Quickly got on Youtube and found a great 30 minutes yoga session. I haven't gotten back into yoga in a while but oh well...I needed to get in some good stretches.

So walking..YOGA! :-)

It is not like Leslie Sansone really cared either way. :-)

Here's hoping I can get a run in before Christmas dinner tomorrow. :-)

Merry Christmas!

Day 10...1 mile jog with Leslie! Whew! Feels good.

On the 10th day...Ouch!

With all this snow I have been getting a great back, hips, biceps etc...workout shovelling some pretty heavy snow.  I will get a 1 mile run in later today but giving my body a break for the morning. Achy from the unplanned workouts.

9th Day of...shovelling wet snow & stacking 1/2 a cord of wood!

8th Day....3 strong miles & pilates oh yeah!
