Just Keep Running Blog

View Original

The time is now!

It’s funny to look back a year ago and see how incredibly consistent I was with blogging. Now, I’m much more like a two times a month blogger at the moment 🤣🤷🏼‍♀️I am happy to report that I’m FINALLY done with the semester & it feels amazing. I had one class -Med Surg- that literally took 15+ hours of work per week (not including the 3 hour lecture). It was insane and I’m so so happy I’m finally done! No more of these views for awhile…

I’m also back to running on the trails! I got in my first few snowy runs of this season last week and they were so much fun. I love the sound of breaking trail in the fresh snow.

I’ve also ~surprisingly~ been swimming at least once a week since the beginning of this month! I normally get in around 1/4-1/3 of a mile. It’s certainly not far or that long, but I’ve really felt how much looser I am post-run when I can follow it up with a swim.

I’m also starting to create my 2020 goals and am so excited to almost finish two more of my 2019 goals this last week. I’ve got to get in 3 pull-ups (unassisted) and finish 1 more book to hit 20 for the year. I’m able to do 2 sets of 5 pull-ups with the band (haven’t tried to do any without the band yet!!) and am halfway through my 20th book of the year. PS finally got my hands on this one and it was so good.

I’m also just beginning to finalize my races and goals for the new year! It’s the year where I also enter into a new age group?!?! 😱Only a few more months of being in my 20s! I’m excited/nervous/in awe of how quickly they went by. I love some good bucket list items for a new decade- so let me know if you have any good ones!

I’m also excited to be working on some new ideas for my blog and this space for the next year! Let me know if there are any posts you’d be interested in seeing or if you have any ideas- I’d love to help make them a reality! For now, I’ll leave you with this photo of Regal Brady- all dressed up for the holidays.
