One year ago today I wrote this post A New Person, New Attitude, and New Goals. It’s a little bitter sweet looking back at that post. I had just hit my weight loss and fitness goal and set some other goals for myself. Looking back I’ve made good progress on my three other goal areas:Continue reading “One Year Ago”

Rest Day
This morning I was able to wake up early the way I like and I got out of bed to go for a run, but my legs and body were telling me otherwise. I was sore and cramped and I guess that makes sense, I pushed it hard for me this week. I’m pleased withContinue reading “Rest Day”
Thursday Morning Run
Early morning always used to be my favourite time to run, but the past while I’ve been having a hard time getting out of bed in the morning. This morning though I forced myself to get up and out the door. It made me happy, there are less people around, it’s cooler and I getContinue reading “Thursday Morning Run”
Morning Run Picture
It was a beautiful morning, perfect for running. I pushed it and managed a 5K with only one short walking break and long enough to snap this picture. Did it with a pace of 6:48 min/km.
Finally Running Again
For the past little over a week I’ve been finally getting back into the habit of running. Since the 13th I’ve gone out six times. It has been rough and a little disheartening as I looked back to just a year ago and where I was compared to now. On July 19th 2014 I didContinue reading “Finally Running Again”
Beautiful Morning
This morning I finally did it. I’ve been saying for a long time that I needed to get out running again. Having not been feeling well, and then going on vacation I kept putting it off. I decided last night it was time. Still I managed to stay in bed later than I planned butContinue reading “Beautiful Morning”
Feeling better
After four days of feeling horrible and then two days of taking it pretty easy I think I’m finally getting back to myself. Losing 15lbs in four days, although needed, is not ideal. Today I actually ate some food and it felt good. Taking the kids to dance class did wear me back out quiteContinue reading “Feeling better”
I’m Home!
As great as the staff at the hospital all were I’m very happy to be back home! As it turns out it wasn’t an abscess in my throat as was the original thought. It turns out that it was cellulitis. It got below the skin and was affecting the tissue and spreading that way. NotContinue reading “I’m Home!”
Hospital stay
I’m just getting settled in for what is my only night stay in the hospital. For getting close to two weeks now I’ve had a very sore throat making it very hard to swallow and sleep. Lack of sleep tends to have a way for making everything even worse than it is too. During thisContinue reading “Hospital stay”
Went way backwards
Thus has been a brutal winter, but it seems like it is finally turning to Spring. We’ve had a lot of snow melt away and I’m finally able to see some grass in some places of my yard. Not only was there a lot of snow but I also let this winter be an excuseContinue reading “Went way backwards”
