It's Been awhile

Hi everyone,

I know it's been awhile since I posted but I have been soo busy I haven't had much time to write.
Since my last post I have been working outside nearly everyday!! I have had a pretty big job outside this spring. I have been clearing a spot on the property for my wedding in July!!
It has taken most of the spring and I think it's finally the way I want it. Still a few more things to do ( I am a perfectionist) but the hard work is done.

Just so you don't think that I have given up on my exercising. Let me re-count what ,my typical day has been like:

Mondays and Wednesdays up at 7am -workout from 8:15-9am -back home and eat breakfast- 10:30 am outside clearing trees, digging up stumps hauling wood etc. 1pm - lunch 1:30 back outside til 3:30 and done.

Tuesday and Thursday's Up at 6am , 7-7:45 workout , home and breakfast until 9am , outside working till noon..lunch 12;30 -3pm outside 5:30 -6:30 5k run with my running group.

Fridays- 7am wake-up 8:15-9am work out

Saturday ...REST!

Sunday- 8am 5k run

So, as you can see I haven't exactly been sitting on my ass ..lol


The running has come to an end for now though. My sweetheart and I ran in the 5K run on Ottawa race weekend the 26th of May and had a Blast! It was a lot of fun and I really wish we had done the 10k. It was our first time running a race like that and we didn't have the confidence to run any further. Running is a high impact sport and both us started to have trouble with our knees :( . For now we will start cycling and get back to running in the cooler weather. Perhaps we can try for a 10k next time!!

Here are some pictures of our race. I just wish we knew where the camera's were!



Looking the wrong way Ofcourse!



Sprinting the last 200 meters.


Finally Crossing the Line!
