Funky Felix Intervals

Ran 19 miles this morning.  Probably was a bit too much, but I emailed Coach Felix since I am going to be out of town for the next two weeks and not able to run.  Felix said I should do the long run this weekend so as to be ready for the 21 miler.

I ended up running with Coach Felix and Kay.  It was awesome - Felix told us about all of the marathons he has ever run.  He has run 45.  His favorites are as follows: favorite marathon: Houston and New York.  Most Inspirational: Marine Corps.  Most Spiritual: Bataan March Memorial (Las Cruces).

I am going to sign up for this one - it will give me an excuse to see my family there.

As stated previously, I joined Weight Watchers recently.  I had had enough of running with the extra pounds and being tired before I should.  We shall see how this goes.....

I am still here

I couldn't even access this blog. Have I been kicked off completely? It has been too long. Life got so busy all of a sudden. I am back working, just closed on my house this week, have been training for the marathon and considering getting licensed in skydiving...learning a lot at work, auditing a class and a second one starts next week.......

I could go on, but you get the picture.

Swimming has fallen by the wayside because there is just no time. I just cannot make it to the pool in time, unfortunately.

But I am still here! Going quite strong....I have missed this. And I have missed writing in my journal, too. I used to wonder why you would read statements about how healthy it is to keep a journal. I remember thinking that that was crazy. Why would journaling be healthy? It is marvelous to get one's thoughts out of one's head into the open.

Anyhoo, enough rambling. Tomorrow is either an 18 or a 19 miler. And the runs keeping going....
