I realize it's been a while since I've last written - I've been fairly busy wrapping up some last minute wedding things. I can't believe that there's only 11 days until the "big day"! Now that I look back on this past year, I realize how fast time really goes. Even though I knew that my our big day would come, I never imagined that the time would fly by so fast! It's almost surreal, but I'm very excited to start a new chapter in my life.
As I was laying in bed last night, I got to thinking, "what am I going to do with my time once all this wedding stuff is over"? Hmm, good question, huh? I really want to continue with (or at least be more disciplined) my goals of getting in to shape. Currently I'm only doing the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred, mostly because that's all that time allows for right now, but I want to really get back into shape. I'm not really sure the best way to conquer this feat, but I'm definitely up for the challenge! I ran my first 5k this past April. I really didn't have high expectations (other than to finish) and found that I did better than I expected...and it didn't hurt that I had a good time, too (thanks to my fabulous co-workers). My time was 28:11, not half bad. I'd love to get it under 27 minutes, but it will definitely take some work on my part! I'm not sure if I have it in me to ever run a marathon, but my goal is to perhaps give a go at a half marathon. But, before I get way to ahead of myself, I'd like to try a few more 5k's, a 10k and then perhaps a half. This all sounds so easy, but the problem is, I'm not a huge fan of running. I don't mind the occasional run when it's nice out (you know, the 2 - 3 milers), but I tend to get really bored while running. I'm not sure if I just need some inspiration, or if I just need to train myself to like it, but it's something I'm willing to work on. I really need training tips, advice and/or some fun races that I can look into running in the future, because come July 1st, I'm changing gears from wedding planning to getting in shape!!
