Funny when you live in the same city, you never can find time to visit family and friends... The farther I move, the more frequent I show up on door steps these days! lol. Just like a cat I still can find my way home!
Well I still managed to fit a 10K run in at the gym in Hamilton while visiting family. I am an on the go kind of girl, so I chose a membership that is open to any location, I love that freedom. Gives you some variety in equipment, and to see what different gym locations have to offer. The biggest perk is being able to meet up with my friends anytime, anywhere for a quick workout. Since I don't have obligations to children I flex my schedule for my family and friends, that have kiddies and tight schedules.
Well as you can see I only put in one 10K run a week... for long runs that is. That is because of this buggered knee and I don't want it to jepardize my future running events by over training. So I am really babying it. I don't enjoy not being able to pound out the mileage that I use to, but these days it's not about that. It's about making it to the finish line and being rewarded with my health a family. I run with alot of other reasons that keep me determined to finish and they are deep within my heart.
I have signed up for another running event. It is a 15K in Mississauga called the Bread and Honey Run. I am excited about this event as I will be running this event with my friend Mary. She has decided to give this one a whirl... We use to run together when I lived back in Hamilton, and boy do I miss those runs. So we are both excited to complete this run and train and meet up for our training days.
This year... the feeling is, it's going to be the most memorable one and a start to my life and everyone in my circle. It has already started off amazing.
So much has happened that, I had decided that I will be running The Princess 1/2 Marathon with memories of people that have either crossed my path and left a positive impression in my heart. Each K will be marked with a special person.
1K Sean - takes care of everyone
Samantha - her laughter, can brighten any dark spirits
Madison - a baby with deep thoughts
3K Mandy and Bill Luck - my rock and family
5K My Father - who taught me to be my best, and to live life like you were dying
10K My Brother - to new beginnings
15K Veronika and Richard - strength and support, amazing couple
16K Eileen - a friend for life, because she is full of life
17K Mary - a friend for life, who is beautiful inside and out and very caring
18K Sandra - a friend for life, her presence is contageous
19K Karen - a friend for life, a motivator and go getter, sets out a goal and achieves it
20K Rod - a friend for life, creative, caring, and talented
20K- FINISH - Jordon - soul mate
This should keep me going right to the finish.
