Proud to say I raced the 5 and 10k on Saturday and the 21k today and the weather was not great but i did it and finished real strong. No complaining. Not even about the rain. I just thought well it could be worse it could be thunderstorms which they were calling for but held off.

Friday just walking and painting

My hubby is doing an 8k this weekend. He wanted to do an ugly sweater run this year, but it conflicted with another race he had already signed up for. Have fun putting together a santa suit to run in!
Keep on losing!

I sometimes struggle with staying motivated as well. Earlier this year I signed up for six different 5K events so I had them on my calendar as a reminder to workout and train. I keep a pair of sneakers at my desk so I can go for a walk during lunch or between meetings instead of sitting all day. I'm generally successful with this 2-3 times per week as sometimes with back to back meetings it just doesn't work.
Back in September, I took a workshop called, Relieving Stress: Self-Care for Busy People. It was taught by my daughter, Vanessa, who has been an allied health professional for many years. I learned a lot in those 90-minutes and have been able to implement some of her suggestions. I particularly found the breathing exercises beneficial. Being able to calm my mind and focus has helped me to stay motivated not only in my wellness journey but overall.

Haven't posted for awhile. Still doing OK...Below 200 pounds. Last time I weighed I was 197. Went on vacation this last week..Las Vegas and The Grand Canyon. Did a lot of walking on both. Saturday picked up garbage in a large church's parking lot (with a grabber)...Walked about 2 miles doing that one. Rode my bike to the coffee shop...Got my cup of soup (navy bean...Yeah, I put up with one rather than really enjoy it). It is about 2.5 miles each way. I turned 62 last month...Had all kinds of RNY tests done to see why I am slowing down. All came back normal, so maybe more exercise will help with endurance. Maybe I'm just getting old!! Pollution is still bad here in the Central Valley. It was real bad a few weeks ago with the Napa Valley fires...A lot blew our way. I drop my gym membership on the 26th of this month. Thought we would get more rain to clear up the air...But will have to wait till at least the second week on November. The smog has limited my bike riding (two heart attacks...don't want to risk it). Will do mostly walking till the air gets better. Later, Brian PS Plan on riding my bike to the flea market/sales yard tomorrow...Will get my cheap massage...
