Week One, Day One
Well my first official training day was yesterday. I am excited about this marathon training actually... we'll see how I feel in a few weeks time, but for now I am lookinf forward to running. Yesterday was only three miles, but it is a good starting point. It took me 36 minutes. I'm not sure if I'm going at a good pace, but it will do for now. I got on the treadmill at the gym and Entertainment Tonight was on, then ET Canada, so I was very entertained. I just couldn't wait to see how Tonya Harding's makeover went...NOT! Tonight four miles.

Long time no see... me
Well hi,
I have been trying to update my blog for a bit, but not having the greatest memory, I forgot my username and password which made things a little difficult. Well I finally managed to remember and now I'm back. I am at work actually and I'm really bored. I have about an hour left and then I'm off to the gym. I have decided to train to run a marathon, mostly because my sister is. I don't want to be outdone, so I took up the crazy challenge too. I haven't quite started to train but I'm training to train, I'll start next week I think. Yes, I'll start next week. I am really nervous about it. But, I try and think of that moment when, I cross the finish line and puke, no not that moment, the moment after that when I feel a huge sense of accomplishment, and pride. The pride part may be difficult if I still have puke on me, but oh well.
Let's see, what else is new with me. Oh, I turned 29 on the 7th! Yep, the big ol 2-9, Yikes! I made it down to the Bowling Alley for a few socialbles. Drinks are good, but free drinks on your birthday are even better!
I had a conversation with a guy I work with on Friday, I was saying I couldn't wait to go home, grab a beer and hop in the shower. He looked at me like I was crazy, and asked me if I really took the beer in the shower. So I looked at him like he was crazy. He's never had a drink in the shower and he couldn't understand why I wouldn't just wait the five minutes and drink it after the shower. I couldn't believe he's never had a drink in the shower! I have long hair, it never takes me five minutes to shower, and I get thirsty too. But yeah, we polled the office and noticed that only the maritimers tend to do this. We are the smart ones I guess. What's better than a hot steamy shower and a nice frosty bevy, doesn't really matter what kind it is. I do it all the time!
Well I haven't done a heck of a lot this afternoon. I went to the google maps and looked at my house on the satellite, then my parents house, then my aunt's house, then my work, then Charlottetown, then Calgary. Then I closed google by accident and couldn't be bothered looking at maps anymore. I'm bored, 20 minutes to go now. Guess I better go, want to check my emails, before I go.
