run 8/28.

i'm so proud of myself! 

i go farther and faster every time! 

i ran the first 2km without stopping.

go me! 

yoga & running.

like yin & yang. i feel yoga and running go together

running makes my muscles tight but pushes them to go farther

yoga on the other hand loosens them as i stretch

the more running i do the more yoga i crave

now to find balance

run more. do more yoga.

because i love to track things.

check out my running page! 

run 7/28.

farthest and fastest run yet. 

i think i need to give my knees more than one day off in a row though because they are sore after this one

i'm hoping to get up to 4km by my 10th run - i just keep adding a little bit each time.

need to map out a new path

i can't believe how much i'm increasing my runs by - almost a week ago i was way under 3km.
running isn't so bad .... except when you are doing it.

long weekend at the lake.

our weekend was perfection, absolute bliss.

sun tanning, reading, just spending time together.

four days didn't feel long enough. 

we even managed to fit in a game of golf - this is my first shot 

woot woot

love long weekends with the boyfriend <3 

run 6/28.

accomplishment: ran the first 1km without stopping.
woot.
only walked 3 times.
best run so far - and it was early in the morning
maybe i should start running in the morning....
that would mean getting up at 530 am...
i can convince my body to do a lot of things

i don't know if i can convince my body to do that.

run 5/28.

i broke 3km, this is a big deal. 

best time, fastest pace.... lots of little short breaks.

only need to work up 2 more km... perhaps by run 8 i'll be at 4km.

this running thing...it's okay

goodbyes.

goodbyes don't get any easier, no matter what anyone tells you.
the past three weekends have been filled with hellos and goodbyes.
hellos fill us up with excitement, love and joy
and goodbyes seem to take that all away.

they leave us empty.

longing to fill a void.
and the only thing that gets us through is the promise of seeing each other soon.

hello...
           ...goodbye.

run 4/28.

i learned something today.
don't run when you have eaten a full cake only an hour prior.
man i feel like this slowed me down.

my knee only really started to hurt near the end, so that's good.

because i'm ocd and love to track things/make graphs i've created two graphs for my first four runs

slowly making my way towards that 3 km mark... i'm hoping run 5 will be the one

i'm slowly starting to go further in less time - i think i'm getting a little faster!
i'm probably gonna start a page to track this - cause i'm like that
how's your run?

run 3/28.

see run 2 and run 1

busted my knee pretty good on this run.... ow. 

this run didn't suck as much as the others... maybe this is getting easier?

8 weeks till the run. 

and i'm hoping to be able to run 2.5km without stopping.

i'm also hoping to get up to 3km next time.

just not sure what to do about this knee... thoughts?

run 2/28.

i told myself i would do at least 28 runs. (see #1 here)
this is number two.... hey i got a lot faster.

i tried a month ago, but then i got sick ... for a long time, then finals, then nyc, then moving.

but now... now i have no excuse

the only thing stopping me is a patio with a crisp glass of wine.

i had a bug fly into my eye =/

update.

wow, i haven't written in a long time... sorry about that.

april 24th marked the end of exams and then it was of to nyc later that day.
nyc was a whirlwind, i loved every minute but when we came home i moved to calgary the next day.
i've been here for five days and things are finally started to calm down.
i'm getting my life back in check, although this week is my 22nd birthday so who knows

busy, busy, busy.

i promise i'll write again soon!
