snow day

Well March certainly has come in like a lion. We had about a foot of snow since last night. No school too, though I think they would have been fine with a delay. I got my workout in shoveling snow and I still have more to go. So, since I work at a health club, they NEVER close. I trudged in this morning, kids in tow. After I sent them to babysitting (they had the entire room plus two babysitters, all to themselves). Since my aqua classes tend to be more of an older crowd, I had a nice morning chatting with the life guard while we watched the empty pools. Two classes and no members. I left early and headed home but got stuck in my driveway. 30 minutes (more) of shoveling and I made it in the garage. I am not going back out today.

spring is coming

Hello March,

So, I have not been running much this winter. I have however hired a personal trainer. One of the benefits of working for a health club is getting a dicount on personal training. It is actually a great benefit. Well, since it was a nice day (the calm before the storm, really...there is now snow outside and more on the way, but I was out running in my running skirt and short sleeves), my trainer got me outside running sprints, (kind of), up hill...way up hill. It was hard work, but good. It was just what I needed to jump start my pre-spring training.
