You girls are so helpful and supportive. Thank you. I'm so happy that we're doing this together. And now that I'm back from the gym, I feel terrific. Why do I dread going so much? 45 minutes plus 3 minutes cool down, 3.77 miles, and here's the best part...515 caloreis. I'm thinking I might do some personal training stuff when I get home tonight. We'll see. I'm also thinking that I'd like to get an exercise video. That might be fun once I get my blu-ray set up. I see Kathy Smith is still making videos. :) My knees still aren't quite right so I'll have to pay attention to them.
We still need to figure out where we're going. I am leaning toward either Sonoma (Wildcat Canyon is scaring me) or Pensacola. It looks like there may be a lot of fun things to do either place. Nancy Creighton sent me a link to a place that has zip lining very neary Pensacola. I'll confess that I haven't looked at the link you sent Katie. Maybe I'll have some time this evening to do that. Would love to know what you guys are thinking.
Here's the link...

No need to look t the link I posted if we are going to Prnsacola or Wildcat! Both sound fun although I don't think I'd want to zipline (and probably couldn't with Levi)... I'm leaning towards CA or a local Chicago or Cinci one personally. And i'd really like to get it on the calendar! What about you Kristi?
ReplyDeleteI'm confused with all the races now. I need a chart or something. Is Wildcat the same as Sonoma? Ziplining sounds fun to me! I was thinking more Florida only because I'm going to CA twice before our race, but all different parts of the state so it doesn't really matter. That probably doesn't make the decision any easier. See mom - i told you it's better if i stay out of it and let you decide. But seriously, if I can figure out the date of each event that could affect it because my spring is filling up. help? :)
ReplyDeleteI made it more confusing because I thought mom wanted to do wildcat but she said it was scaring her and she wants to do Sonoma (both are in Calif.). Here are the dates:
