Hiatus.

I have taken a small hiatus on my marathon training.
A couple weeks ago, I injured my knees (mainly my right knee). I have never had an injury from sports or exercise.
To say the least, it is very frustrating!
I want to run so bad - I never thought I would ever say that.
I love exercising and being active.
Now I feel lazy.
Back to yoga and the elliptical.
Jared is still running like a maniac and he will be running the Long Beach Marathon. (I'm jealous.)

2 years.


Time goes by so fast.
I can't believe it has been 2 years.
I am so thankful to be married to Jared for eternity.
Looking forward to many more adventures with him...

p.s. A special shout out to our good friends, Jay & Marisa. They got married on the exact same day as us. We miss you guys. Happy Anniversary!

utah bound.


Headed to the great state of Utah on Thursday.
I'll be traveling solo.
The plan is to visit family and get some training done for Nu Skin.
Excited to get a mini-vacation in.
Bye.

never was a fan of...


....Pink. Until, I saw her grammy performance.

Quite a revealing outfit {not my taste} but, nonetheless a very entertaining performance.

I was impressed.
(I will admit, I downloaded Glitter in the Air)

(this is not a picture of me)


This weekend, my endurance was tested, as we set out to run the distance of a half marathon.
The night before, I voiced my concerns to Jared.
He said that I had nothing to worry about and I was thinking, "Yeah right!"

Turns out he was right.

I made it...13.1 miles without walking and with the help of my motivating husband.
Thanks J.

Training.

I am still unsure about my decision to train for the LA Marathon this year because I am a few weeks behind schedule. If I don't feel prepared then I will go for the Long Beach Marathon. Which will allow for an extra month of training.
I am sticking with my trainer's (Jared) plan and schedule.
So far, so good.
We accomplished 9 miles today which is HUGE for me.
I am tired.
Feeling hopeful that I can continue to build my endurance.
Wish me luck!
