My new resolution

Hi everyone,

As I was flipping around other team bolgs, I noticed that a few teams have bunches and bunches of entries. One team has none, and others are in between. Out team was pretty low on the list. I know I am as much to blame as everyone else. I am going to make it my personal mission to try to catch us up. Well, maybe not, but I will try to be better at posting more often, and not just when I am "back to running after a break".

What a great morning. Yesterday, one of the aqua aerobic subs called me to sub for her today. Most of my classes are in indoor pools, so today was a special treat to teach 2 back to back classes in the outdoor pool. It was fun and so nice to be outside. At this particular club, most of the classes move outside for the summer except for 2 that stay inside. Lucky me, I teach one of the classes that stays inside. I do teach one outside.

If any of you baystaters are in the Wellesley or Newton areas and want to try out one of my aqua classes, let me know. I teach both deep (you wear a belt and no touching the floor) or shallow (about chest depth). It is great cross training for runners. I highly recommend it to anyone. It is not just an "old lady" workout. It is great for pregnancy too.

I made it

So, my running group started up again after a slightly extended holiday break. I finshed the run. It was not pretty, but I did it. I feel good too. I think I am energized and motivated to keep going.

Registration begins this week for the big local 1/2 marathon. I did it last year, but I may pass on it this year and do a different one. It fills up super fast, so I only have a few days to decide.

Back on course

OK, my running groups resumes training tomorrow, after a very long few weeks break. If you count climbing every tower in Paris, hours of walking, and visits to every museum and tourist destination in town, then I have stayed on track. Somehow, I do not think that will be enough to get me around the river and back to our starting location.

I was doing great and began a good training routine. An extended visit from my children's great grandmother, followed by our vacation, really got me off track. I am looking forward to getting back into a routine, though my run tomorrow, in the wee morning hours, is going to feel very long.

I feel like I am starting over from the beginning. That's OK though. I have started from the beginning many times. I can do it, just like I have done it before. No worries, right!
