Hiya beautiful people!!  I hope everyone is doing well and keeping up with their routine (and, switching it up, cuz, ya know, that muscle confusion stuff really works )!  

I’m doing well… sorta.  Unfortunately, I injured my right leg over a week ago (I don’t think it’s a stress fracture, though my doc seems to think so… I’m currently waiting for x-ray results), and though it’s better this week (I took a whole week off without running or anything, super hard for cardio-crackheads as myself! ), I’m concerned about running the LJ half in late April.  I’m going to see how it feels on Wednesday when I run on it.  A part of me thinks I can run 7-8 miles and walk the rest of it if necessary… but it’s so hilly, and it has a 3 hour limit, so we’ll see.  VTD, Wendy, TLC, Pheid., Suzy - would you still run it? :/

On the social front, I haven’t been as busy as Stormi’s two-dates-in-one-night (ha, go girl!), but I am very interested in one (like total butterflies, it’s pretty darn awesome!).  It’s still so early, though, so I’m trying to control my feelings of liking him *too* much (a very bad pixi habit), but yeah… I really enjoy his company and he’s introducing me to new things I’ve always wanted to get into (i.e., more gnarly camping/hiking, rock climbing, etc.).

As for paragliding - my friend surprised me with a tandem flight and it was AWE…. SOOOOME!!!  It was INSANELY fun to run off a cliff and next thing you know - the last step is in the air and you’re FLYING!!  I’m still waiting to get pics from the flight, but once I do I’ll definitely post.  I’m very motivated to get licensed for it… it’s just coughing up the fundage in order to do so!

Anyway, I hope all is well and everyone else is injury-free!  I’ll catch up with you soon and send my love and support!  Much love to y’all xo

Hiya peeps!!  Wanted to check in to make sure everyone was behaving and stuff   I’m doing well, still running super lots (up to 30-35 miles/week), biking (same mileage as running), and doing the one body part a week routine, 2-3 exercises for each part.  I admit to not having gone back to CF yet, but I did have some kettlebell training with my friend recently so it’s kinda like it… just not really

I’ve still been on the active/adventurous streak when it comes to my recreational activities and/or dating, though!  I’m planning on some camping trips within the next three months, with a nice balance of a girly spa weekend in Napa.  I’m TOTALLY getting a hair up my arse and seriously contemplating getting certified in paragliding.  It’s a steep $3k start-up for all the lessons and equipment and stuff, but once I’m all certified it’s an $8 day pass to take flight at an absolute bad-arse beach/cliffs location about five minutes from where I live!  So… I’m figuring out the logistics and how long it would take to cough up the money… I’ve never been one for SCUBA training like most of my SD peeps, but I think this one is right up my alley!

Speaking of, I’ve met a couple guys that are totally right up my alley!  Obviously I don’t want to jinx anything, but they’re totally my types actively - campers, rock climbers, etc., and physically they’re opposite of what I’d go for - leaner more than muscular, shorter… have HAIR! lol  So… we’ll see!

Anyway, I hope all is well and if you’re going to the Arnold - HAVE A BLAST AND TAKE PICS!!   Miss and love you much, everyone!!
