My workout schedule was a little different this week. I started teaching an ACL injury prevention class at work on Monday and Wednesday nights, which focuses on strength and balance training, and plyometric and agility drills. Because of the class setting I get to work out along side of the high school girls...
Its official! I'm all set up to run my 2nd full Marathon in October! October 27th to be exact. :) It's the 38th annual Marine Corps Marathon in D.C. I am of course anxious about running another full, but this one will be totally different from the first because this time I am...
I was just having one of those days at work today. You know the ones where nothing is really going your way and everything just seems to annoy you? Yes? Glad I'm not the only one. About mid afternoon I caught myself in the middle of complaining about a situation and stopped short....
Hey! I've been hard at work taking my sweet time changing up the look of the blog here! After Mark and I came back from lunch at my parents after church today, we decided to spend the rest of the afternoon just resting. : ) Since I'm not very good at actually sitting and...
Its so hard to get back in to a workout routine after vacation, isn't it?? It's way more tempting to sleep! Sleep feels so good on vacation you just want it to never end... But I did manage to get some workouts in this week and I'm glad I did! Here's what my...
Good Morning Church!Understanding the depravity of man and reading how Paul opens up the gospel to the people of Rome this morning. Only when we feel and accept our disorder and guilt and the impossibility of justifying ourselves before God by saying we obey the Law, are we in a condition to embrace the...
We are home! Just a short post with no purpose other than to say we made it home. Our flight back was without incident. Thank goodness because the day after we got back there was a bomb threat on a U.S airways plane coming out of the same Ireland airport we were at...
Well lovely people, our Europe vacation is coming to an end. Today we spent our time resting and packing for our trip home tomorrow. Except for a short trip to the Cath Kidston outlet where I spent entirely too much money but I'm justifying it by telling myself that I got a lot...
Well we are hanging out at the airport at Shannon International Airport, Ireland waiting to catch our flight back to London. It has been a crazy 48 hours, but that's sort of been the theme through out the trip. We left the house in Oundle at 3:30 yesterday morning and thanks to a...
Whew! What a nice relaxing day! After making it back from Paris at about 2 am, we slept in until 10:30! We only had one thing to go see today so we took our time getting ready. Thank goodness for that though because we were exhausted after doing London and Paris back to...
Bonjour!We are saying goodbye to Paris after a long two days! I have to say it wasn't exactly what I was expecting. I guess I had a preconceived notion of what Paris would be and it didn't exactly live up to my expectations. Doesn't that sound extremely spoiled of me??? I definitely don't...
