10K…Check
It has been a few weeks, but I did the 10K and I even finished under my goal time of 57 minutes…56:25 or somewhere thereabouts…I didn’t stay for to check my official time. It was a GREAT feeling to train for that and actually do it.
Since then…I’ve done a couple of 5K’s and I think I like that distance better. I ran the last one in 26:17 finishing 4th in my age group (old women) out of 49 of us. I’m doing another one next weekend and my goal is to finish in under 26 minutes. Wish me luck!!!!!
I discovered (or rediscovered I should say) rollerblading a couple of weeks ago. Not sure what made me think of it, but I decided to dust them off (it was literally 10 years since I had worn them!) and head out to a trail not far from us. It’s in a really nice area along a river, lots of trees and such. It was really peaceful and I had an awesome time. So much so that I’ve made it a weekly habit. I go about 7 miles and it’s a pleasant change from running and lifting. Not to mention that it’s a great cardio workout.
Still working on the PT certification…been hard to get my intern hours with work and working out…but, I know that’s just an excuse…I’ll get it done soon.
Went to the Ronnie Coleman Classic last weekend…was ok as far as shows go…nothing spectacular. Missed the men, but the women looked awesome in their suits…made me think about competing again…
Other than that…5 weeks of school and I’m out for summer…can’t wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shannon! Nice to hear from you, and to see that you are still looking good and doing well. Now that school is out I have no doubt that you complete your journey to PT certification.
