New Years Run

Happy New Year!

New Year's Eve with my husband.

My hubby and I had a fantastic time ringing in the New Year last night.  We made it home by 1AM and climbed woozily into bed.  This morning, I slept in until 9AM.  I thought it would be a lazy morning.  Dragging my feet, I tread downstairs to feed the cats and turned on my iPad to catch up on a few blogs.  Two of my favorites are Dream BIG Runner and Tall Mom on the Run.  Reading about others running was enough to get me out the door.

New Year's Day - I'm ready to run!

I ran 3.1 miles at an 11:56 pace - definitely not setting any records.  However, I remember training for my first marathon and how slow I was starting out.  I know that all it takes is consistency - getting out there 3 to 4 times a week - to improve.  By golly (when do I ever get to use that word?), here goes!

Here is to a productive, restful and creative 2012!
